PokemonGo 13: I'm Bayleef, I'm the gardener, I walk from early dawn (to earn candy to evolve to Meganium)

[DoctorTwo]

Yes, I know you have to have seen The Herbs in the early 70s to get the title, but meh.

Still no chuffing Mareep from a 2km egg, and a 10km hatched a fucking Sudowoodo. Harumph.

I’m hoping for double candy. I could have cried on Friday, I somehow managed to accidentally activate one of my last 3 lucky eggs when I was getting ready to go out. Such a waste!

catchyjem I've done that before (and nearly several times since). It's very easy to do by accident. Fortunately mine was whilst at motorway services whilst I was a passenger so I was able to evolve the little that I had so the egg wasn't all wasted. Am I right in thinking that if you take out regionals and raids there are 234 to get in your pokedex?

I double up on lucky eggs. Two devices logged in at the same location. You get an error message if you try to evolve the same Pokemon twice so you have to be organised. If I had another phone I would try 3!

Bloody natu from my 5k egg. It doesn't even have brilliant IV either so it's gone to the grinder.

My pokemon keep getting knocked out of gyms in the middle of the night. One was on a riverside walk and the other in a forest, about half an hour walk in so not like someone could drive to it. I suspect spoofers unless someone is very committed to the game

DD had a 2k hatch this morning, her second Cleffa in two days (and I haven't had a single one yet!) I had a 10k. Porygon again. Glad it wasn't Sudowoodo again though.

We have a local gym that is being spoofed. It's in the woods and since the game launched there have been the same few names swapping it between them. Last week I noticed that my lone pidgey was sitting in a full house of high level players. I've never seen any of the names before and they were all L38 and up (which we just don't have out here). Yesterday I took it back from the local player who took it out and today it's full of the same names again. At least they aren't blocking spaces for real players because there's only ever one of us in it at a time.

Hurrah hatched a Larvitar with lots of candy so I have enough for a Tyranitar. Just 2 left to get from the catchable gen 2. I don't think I'll be done anytime soon though as still waiting on a Chancey that's worth evolving.

Woohoo! Hatched a Scyther giving me enough candies to evolve my first Scizor. Another one off my list.

So now I'm down to needing:

Venusaur*
Charizard*
Vileplume*
Machamp*
Farfetch'd
Dodrio*
Hitmonlee*
Kanghaskhan
Kabutops*
Moltres
Dragonite*
Mewtwo
Meganium*
Typhlosion*
Feraligatr*
Cleffa
Politoed*
Jumpluff*
Unown
Wobbuffet
Girafarig
Granbull*
Qwilfish
Heracross
Corsola
Blissey*
Raikou
Suicine

Not including the ones that haven't been released, the asterisks denote ones I can walk so will get there eventually with those. And I know I have regionals in there too, hoping they'll do more events like they did with the Kangaskhan, I couldn't manage that time but fingers crossed for more regionals visiting.

It's not the shortest list but I'm getting there slowly. Hoping they will bring back previous legendaries or I'll never get that Moltres. :(

Currently walking my last Tyrogue which will be a Hitmonlee. 3/25 at the moment as I've not long evolved a Hitmontop.

Waiting until DH comes home so can walk off 0.2 off a 10km egg (DC refusing to come out with me)

It hatched in the house - new Pokémon and I can put my PJs on! Winner....

Looking for opinions please. I have a 98% gengar, sucker punch (7) and shadow ball (100). Is it worth using a charged TM on it to change the sucker punch?

HELLO!!!!

Omg I found my people. I downloaded the app last July for my son, became obsessed and today I had this moment!

It's shorter than my list, Bloo.

Mrsmomo The best (current and possible) move set for a Gengar is Hex and Shadow Ball.

So it would be worth using a fast TM to change Sucker Punch to Hex.

Shadow Ball is the best charge move for Gengar, so I wouldn't recommend using a charge TM on it.

Oh WhatTodo, have I got things the wrong way around then?
Hello Ted nice to welcome you , congrats on your impressive level up ;)

Mrsmomo You only mixed up the fast and charge moves/TMs

The Fast move is the first move and requires a Fast TM, while the second move is a Charge move because you have to charge it up, and so requires a Charge TM.

You asked about changing the move Sucker Punch, and to do so requires a Fast TM as it's a Fast move. Hex is a better move, so it would be worth using the Fast TM to get it.

(However, there are of course other factors at play. Like how many TMs you have altogether, and whether there is a Pokemon you would use more when fighting that could have better moves. I have nearly 30 of each TM so I would go for it, but if you have very few, it might be worth thinking about.)

Ah ok, I only have 2 charged TM's (don't raid much) based on what you are saying I think I will just hang on to it then, thanks again WhatTodo ;)

Mrsmomo That sounds like a good idea

A 98% Gengar is great, but I can't ever remember fighting with one. I would recommend you save your TMs for powerful Pokemon you'll want to battle with, so the likes of Tyrannitar, Gyarados, Dragonite, Golem, Machamp etc. to make sure they have the best possible moves

I'll need another Ophelia bank holiday to go through my Pokémon and pokegenie them all then lol

Just need my Steelix and evolved Flaffy, bar legendary's and regionals I'll be done. Need an event, need some double xp as my pidgey stash is getting out of hand. Roll on the update.

CLocking back in in hope of a decent halloween event. Nowhere near finished gen 2 pokedex but nothing new wherever I go. Have gotten bored except for events and hoping gen 3 will come soon. Rumours it may come with this event, but not keeping my hopes up!

Any suggestions/guesses about what I should be hoarding for the Halloween event.

I'm hoarding candies, pineapps, stardust (not very successfully). What else? I've loads of lucky eggs and am desperately hoping for a double XP event.

If they release gen3 Halloween'y 'mons then what candy is needed? I can guess but I'm not sure..

Thanks

I've been hoarding pidgey candy in the hope of a double xp event. I've over 4000 stashed away.

All I know is there will be at least 2 Gen3 and Pikachu in a witch hat.
