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 got an ex raid pass too. Also for Sunday at 12. Are they all happening at the same time?

We have quite a busy group of raiders and lots of us got passes as did many in the neighbouring town, all of them start at 12pm except for one person in our group who's pass says 7am? We have no idea why his is different given that every screenshot I've seen from anywhere in the world, they all start at 12.00 in their given timezone.

He's not that active a member in our facebook chat and hasn't been back on since it became apparent he was different to everyone else.

I'm currently walking 3x 10k eggs and a Mareep buddy... its a long slog for that candy!

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 28/09/2017 00:23

Sorry, I've just realised the mistake in my post. I put:

Yep; 12-1. So you can do the raid at any time between that hour as many times as you like (until you catch it).

When I should have said:

Yep; 12-1. So you can do the raid at any time between that hour as many times as you like (until you beat it).

You have as many chances as possible within that hour to beat it, but once you do beat it, that's your only chance to catch it.

Sorry for any confusion; it's late

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 28/09/2017 00:26

Someone in our group had that error, and another one had an error that said San Francisco; when they looked again, the errors had been corrected.

They're just errors; he's still invited to the 12pm raid at the named gym.

Thanks everyone and welcome Floofd!

Congrats to everyone who has their ex raid passes! Bring on Sunday does anyone know what the base capture rate of Mewtwo is going to be? Horrendously low I’m assuming!

Hatches today were another Mareep, Larvitar and Chansey, which is another new Pokemon for the dex. I’ve got two 10km eggs cooking nicely, so hopefully they’ll bring something good. I am with Dillite2 and do not want another Porygon! Make sure you stay away from any kittens when they hatch

NikiBabe · 28/09/2017 14:32

10k egg another fucking snorlax. Not even a decent one.

wartortle · 28/09/2017 14:38

I got a 96% Mareep from a 2k this morning, my second ever, which is nice.

Very jealous of those with an ex pass!

wartortle · 28/09/2017 14:42

Oh, the base catch rate for mewtwo is 6% cotton which is higher than the birds/dogs and I believe higher than all of the current tier 4 pokemon too (5%)

KadabrasSpoon · 28/09/2017 17:12

Anyone else not got anything decent from the event eggs yet? Would love a snorlax or a Chancey.

I hatched a Mankey today. I've also caught a few recently. It was my last one of the available gen one a while back and I remember walking with it for ages...
I'd quite like to complete the medals and fighting is one I need some more for so not complaining!

Icouldbeknitting · 28/09/2017 17:41

Le sigh. 10k egg - Pseudowoodo. It can shake its pompoms as much as it likes, it's still going off to the professor.

NikiBabe · 28/09/2017 17:57

10k egg another fucking porygon.

wartortle · 28/09/2017 19:19

Absolutely thrilled with my latest 2k hatch!

I posted the event egg distribution earlier, porygon and dratini are by far the most common from 10k eggs and the most decent stuff seems to be in 2 (larvitar and Mareep)

Rudedog · 28/09/2017 20:16

I'm desperate for a polygorn- no 10k eggs either

DoctorTwo · 28/09/2017 20:28

I caught this little fella yesterday after a raid, hopefully that means it will be a 100% Feraligatr.

Today's hatches were Porygon x2, which brought 60 candies between them, a rubbish Omanyte, and an almost equally shite Chansey. Here's hoping tomorrow brings better hatches and a good evolve sesh.

It will be; IVs don't change when a Pokemon evolves.

NikiBabe · 28/09/2017 20:53

when does this event end?

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 28/09/2017 21:01

when does this event end?

It's been extended 24 hours so 9pm on the 3rd October.

eurochick · 28/09/2017 21:49

Any ideas what was going on here? It was spinning and sparking like there was a battle going on. It's not and has never been a gym. You do get spawns around that area though.

BlooBagoo · 28/09/2017 22:10

euro - seen someone else with it. Just seems to be some weird glitch.

IVs don't change when a Pokemon evolves.

I've had a couple that did but just put it down to PokeGenie sometimes having a small range instead and I've just not noticed it until they've evolved so taken the average IV as exact. It was only by a couple of points each time.

Mrsmomo · 28/09/2017 22:19

100%!!!!
Kneels down before her and speaks in hushed tones to the goddess ;)

KadabrasSpoon · 28/09/2017 22:24

It was me that was sparking like I was on fire. I thought it was an exciting new feature but was a glitch euro

That generally only happens when appraisals aren't set correctly, because the IVs do not change on a Pokemon in the game when they evolve.

Nope I've been careful with my appraisals, I use a spreadsheet to note them all before going into PokeGenie and then use the same ones for the evolution. I'll see if I can remember which one it last happened with and double check as I don't think I'll have deleted the info on the pre-evolution one. It might help me check if it was a range which somehow narrowed down after evolution. It's happened a few times so far.

BlooBagoo

Does IV change through evolutions?
No. But, you do want to keep in mind about the movesets as they change randomly through evoltions. DPS is an important factor in this game and can be found here: pokemongo.gamepress.gg/pokemon-moves.

This information can be found on the reddit community devoted to IVs. The particular page linked to is the IVs FAQ here: www.reddit.com/r/PokemonGOIVs/comments/4v23ky/faq_on_ivs_info_megathread/?st=j853wuhm&sh=cb00195f
