Pokemon Go #17: Mankey Gone To Heaven

[PickAChew]

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

Another one for the 100% club!

I used to be rural (/long long walk to the single nearest pokestop and not a gym in safe walking distance) but by silph road standards, it seems I still am!

CP 41 Blissey!!! That's amazing. I LOVE wild catches of extraordinary beasties.

Did a lot of 'moning today and now my back hurts

Caught this inside my house! Didn’t even realise there were shiny Murkrows. Looking forward to gen 4 so I can evolve it.

Congrats TakeAChanseyOnMe! I’d love a shiny Murkrow; very jealous! I’ve been after one since the shiny was introduced at the beginning of April.

I have a shiny Murkrow and I luffs it... I went to the nearest town yesterday and set off lures trying to get other players to join me for raids, but no luck So still no L5 raids for me!! Will definitely try to get to Chester for an upcoming Community Day soon.

Community Day today!

Reddit has confirmed that if you find a stop giving a shiny Squirtle Squad task it will be shiny for everyone. They estimate the probability of shiny Squirtle Squad to be 1 in 25

Ooh I’ve got a dragonscale from a pokestop 7 day streak but don’t have any dragon Pokemon to use it on!

Caught my first squirtle of the day and it's a shiny!

Just marking my place, just evolved a Blastoise, DS1 will be really happy when he's back from his dads!

Will probably miss out on community day as usual but loving what I'm calling "pikachus mum on holiday"

Realised I should do my present opening on a lucky egg if there's a few about to tip over into the next friendship level. Racing through level 35 thanks to all your gifts! Level 34 felt like forever

Great morning. Caught a wild shiny squirtle. Then a shiny squirtle with glasses with great IV.

Slightly marred by dd prattling on at me about her squirtles and me accidentally transferring my wild shiny squirtle whilst checking poke Genie.

Evolved shiny sunglasses into blastoise though. 88 on IV.

Good day for me considering I’m currently on holiday with only 2 Pokestops within reasonable walking distance of the hotel

3 shiny squirtles caught allowing me to have a shiny form of each evolution and of the 2 squirtles with glasses that I had the chance to catch one of them was shiny too 😊

I hope everyone else had good luck!

Just left the park this and this it what it looks like from a distance 😁

I got a 98% IV shiny squirtle! Now he's a wonder of a shiny blastoise, so I'm happy - nothing else was even close and I had hardly any time or data to find them in! How did everyone else get on?

Shiny Squirtle, Shiny Wartortle, Shiny Blastoise, Sunglasses Squirtle, Sunglasses Wartortle, Sunglasses Blastoise!

Duuuuudes!

Dragons ale is for evolving seadra to kingdra, btw. No dragons required!

Caught this - my first one!

My Squirtles...

My Wartortles...

And my Blastoises...

If anyone wants to add me, my code is 8339 5762 8637. I’ve level 27 and am a solo play

*player. I don’t do raids anything that involves me having to talk to strangers about playing Pokemon. My husband laughs at me

I did well on community day, I kept stats this time and so I know in the 2.5 hours I played, I had 251 squirtle encounters (adding together task plus wild) of which I caught 249. 43 were sunglasses squirtle, with 6 of those shiny. I also caught 5 shiny normal squirtle. Very successful morning for me :)
