Pokemon Go #17: Mankey Gone To Heaven

[PickAChew]

Because friendship and trading has just been launched and t'other thread is almost full!

Hi all. Thanks to everyone who added me as a friend. I've stopped taking more friends as I just can't keep up otherwise. But my daughter is looking for some friends as she can play again now she has a new phone (old phone stopped supporting PoGo).

Her number is 2155 5047 2781

We're abroad just now so will have good eggs to gift 😜

Quick question. For community day on Saturday will it be 10am -1pm GMT or long cal time? 🤔

Contrary added her - I'm Ch3yngel!

Local time. Not long call time.

Thanks for friend request.

It's 10am - 1pm BST ie. current time.

Here’s an infographic on the bonuses from the Global Challenge

1,979,143 / 2,000,000 So near to L37.

I've used two lucky eggs plus lures today (and star pieces) to see if I could level up. I have gone up over 100,000 XP today.
No raids either. It seems quiet at the moment. No one around to help this morning and other distractions this evening.

Good to start the day with new pokemon XP for Corsola.

Raids have been quiet here, tbh. Have 4 gyms in sight and only 2 raids seen, rather than the usual 2-3 each. Did hit an ex eligible gym, this afternoon, but was only tier 2 campstiffy tumbleweed.

I walk to work so love early morning raids, wish there were more.

I am also close to level 37 Urgent. I have been hoarding pidgeys and usually only evolve under double xp but I may cave and clean house at the weekend. Scrolling through reams of pidgeys is annoying!

I’ve just caught this giant dude. Couldn’t miss him with my poke ball if I tried!

Can you add dh too. He's jealous of my friends 5561 1392 0249

I've just sent your DH a friend request @GoodMythicalMorning. I'm enjoying this triple XP, I'm now 30% into Level 37. Only 1.55Mn XP to go...

I keep having this weird glitch; whenever the 'reward' for field research is a critter the screen freezes and I have to reboot. I'm hoarding them so I can catch all of them with a Lucky Egg/Star Piece combo, will probaly do that before Articuno kicks off on Saturday.

I think that's a known issue.

Don't forget that Corsola departs at midnight.

I finally managed to reach level 40 tonight.

Woooo well done Murinae!

Hi, delurking here. Thanks for all the helpful tips.
I’ve already added most of you as friends: my code is 9629 1505 9575. DD (the Pokemon fiend) set up my avatar and username. Neither of us is called Timmy, or is male.

I think I've added all those on the thread but I'm 7104 9775 9943

I'm the one with the famous scarecrow / pear drink name!

And sorry for being totally shit at presents. I get more than I find to give out!

I just caught two 100% Roselia’s in half an hour from the comfort of my sofa!

It’ll be great when Gen IV hits and I can evolve them into Roserade as it has the potential to be the best poison in the game.

And sorry for being totally shit at presents. I get more than I find to give out!
I'm struggling too. After a few days of having an excess of gifts I'm now struggling to get more than 5 a day. Sadly I don't live close enough to a stop or gym to even make quick regular dashes out.

@PickAChew we need a new thread!

The presents thing is hard work managing tbh. I have friends and family who live in far flung locations so I only open their gifts when i have egg space. and because I might hatch eggs in the day I usually wait until I am home for the evening and then open the remainder of my twenty gift limit from others, opening first the gifts from people with whom I have trades agreed, then others. I'm REALLY REALLY sorry if anyone thinks I'm ignoring their gifts. I'm not! I promise.

On the flip side I pick up quite a lot of gifts each day and just try to plough through as much of my friend list as I can. If anyone thinks I'm regularly missing them out then please just give me a shout on here and I'll make sure to send some over to you.

ignore that! my phone was displaying weird. we clearly are fine for thread space haha

Yep. Just halfway through!

Though anyone can start the next one, when the time comes.

Well done Murinae! Fantastic achievement! I'm "only" 7.5 million behind you!!

I've decided not to get too stressed about the gift thing and just work my way down the list and give presents to all I can. Made a concerted effort on Saturday to gift everyone in my friends list that I was able to send to, and managed to send about 80 gifts; dog was giving me a bit of a sideways look by the end of the day every time I suggested another walk!

Think I’m going to be knackered by Monday; I’ve got 3 concerts, 1 uni open day, articuno day & community day over the next 96 hours. Too much for an oldie!! If anyone needs me on Monday, I'll be curled up with dog in her bed!
