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.

Porygon. Yet another motherfucking porygon. Weep.

So, we’re definitely getting a Halloween event according to Pokémon.com

What’s everyone hoping for and what do you think we’ll get?

I want to believe the Internet hype that the “new Pokemon” will be Gen 3 (at least the Ghost/Dark ones) but need to be realistic 😂

I don't want Gen III. Other than that I'm happy with whatever Smile

Mrsmomo · 04/10/2017 19:04

I have sooooo loved the equinox event, hatched a 98% larvitar, swoons with happiness

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 04/10/2017 21:04

Just hatched my last event 2K and got a Chansey.

Picked up three 10k eggs today. I'm going to need a bloody Pokémon treadmill.

NikiBabe · 04/10/2017 22:21

Last 2k event egg got a togepi.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 04/10/2017 22:37

Out of the regular Pokemon left, I am missing Dodrio, Tyrogue, Togetic, Bellossom, Forretress, Scizor and Pupitar.

I have 248 rare candies.

I have worked out it would take 188 candies to complete Gen I and Gen II (bar unreleased legendaries/regionals/not in game) with the exception of Tyrogue; he's the only one left to hatch.

I won't spend all my rare candies on them, but it's nice to know I could Grin

I am instead going to be using my rare candies to power up my best of each legendary.

wartortle · 04/10/2017 22:49

I don't think we will get all of Gen III but I'd be quite happy if we got a couple of new pokemon or perhaps the chance to get different regionals. Of the fully released pokemon, regionals are all I'm missing.

eyebrowsonfleek · 04/10/2017 22:55

I bet it’s Pikachu in a hat but a new shiny would be cool.

SomewhatIdiosyncratic · 04/10/2017 23:10

I'm ready to find new pokemon in the wild Smile

Other than legendaries or regionals, I think it's only amphoros and feraligator that I'm missing from gen 1 and 2 which I'm working on... gradually!

NikiBabe · 04/10/2017 23:17

Im not going to bother wasting rare candies on legendaries.

You can't actually do anything with them. You cant put them in a gym. You can use them for battle but I havent found them much more effective than normal pokemon. I wont bother to buddy them as it is 20k for one candy.

Id use all that candy on the pokemon you havent yet got.

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 04/10/2017 23:26

Used correctly, good IV/high CP ones are very powerful in battle so I don't think it's a waste at all.

Id use all that candy on the pokemon you havent yet got.

I personally think it would be a waste to use them on my missing Pokemon; after all, I can always walk them and it's not far at all to get candy for them.

Not only that, but none of the ones I'm missing (bar Scizor) I would actually fight with, and I don't like putting resources into something I won't be bothering with.

But everyone plays the game differently, and that's what makes it fun Smile

PokemonGo · 04/10/2017 23:42

I battle a lot an I can't see any need for more powerful Pokémon to battle with. Ive already got enough strong Pokémon to blast through anything they are faced.
Apart from a fully powered up dazzling gleam Blissey which I'm guessing has great IVs I never encounter anything that gives me a problem. Even the Blissey isn't hard to defeat it just takes a little longer than usual.

I'm saving all my rare candy...... (not sure quite what for just yet)

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 04/10/2017 23:46

PokemonGo I didn't really mean regular battles; more raids, particularly with level 4s, 5s and EX raids. I dont often come across anything particularly hard, I just prefer to use the best and most powerful Pokemon possible.

I always find Blissey easy to defeat simply because she just requires a good Machamp or two. Job done Grin

PokemonGo · 05/10/2017 00:19

Even with raids I am not finding the legendaries are making a big difference. I have some decent ones and I have used them but I don't think they are wildly better than some of my other strong pokemon.

I've got a great team of machops but I love using my strongest tyranitar for blissey. it's nearly fully powered up, it's Ivs are 93 and it has stone edge. I haven't found a blissey that it can't beat easily ........however it's still boring battling super strong blissey s as they take longer to beat than other things. I wouldn't mind as much if I had a super strong one myself - I've got a few but their IVs aren't great - still nice to put in gyms but not as scary as I'd like them to be.

I'm not dissing legendaries but I'm also not going to sink all my resources into them iyswim

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 05/10/2017 00:40

Yeah, a Tyrannitar with Stone Edge is a great Blissey counter too.

I am currently planning on using the majority of my rare candies for legendaries, however I have been planning that since the very first legendary was released Grin

I am a notorious hoarder and don't spend any resources easily, so it will be a long time before I decide to spend any of my rare candies. I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up with 1,000 of them and still didn't spend them Grin

Itsoverpeople · 05/10/2017 01:07

Oh god I spend nothing. I'm currently sitting on 1.7 million stardust Blush

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 05/10/2017 06:47

Itsoverpeople Nice! And I thought I was doing well with 400k Grin

eyebrowsonfleek · 05/10/2017 07:16

Nests changed overnight. Anyone get anything helpful to complete their dex?

DoctorTwo · 05/10/2017 07:40

@itsoverpeople, my fellow trainers are astonished that my stardust haul is over 1.6 million, I just tell them I'm waiting to power up my best 'Mon. :o

Theres a couple in our group with over 2 million Shock

cottonwool125 · 05/10/2017 08:11

Eyebrows looks like my favourite park has changed to a Manley nest judging by the amount that are showing up on a scammer! Also possible a Gastly- annoyingly, there’s 2 Gastlys there at the moment, plus a Gengar! Which would be an amazing wild capture Grin

cottonwool125 · 05/10/2017 08:11

*Mankey!

cottonwool125 · 05/10/2017 08:12

**Scanner Blush had a very broken nights sleep with DS and it’s clearly showing Grin

Icouldbeknitting · 05/10/2017 08:35

I did have a million stardust but that was before legendary raids came in. We're usually a small group so I put some research into working out what my best team was and then threw stardust at it. It's a renewable resource..
