Has everybody got Ex Raid passes for next Saturday? Hopefully it'll be another 100% catch rate...

@PickAChew I can't really see the value of any of these Last Resort eeveelutions, as the charge move loses STAB synergy. The main purpose I guess is as a trophy Mon or potential trade bargain down the line. I'm not personally bothering to get any and am saving my Shineys for when the move pool reverts back to normal. I totally understand why others wouldn't though. I guess I am a strictly utilitarian trainer Blush

tryingtocatchthewind · 12/08/2018 07:49

I’ve evolved one for the fun of it (oooo green Jolteon) but I’ll be saving the rest as I don’t want last resort either. I really want the pink water one - sorry can’t remember it’s name - and an Espeon.

PickAChew · 12/08/2018 08:24

That's why I'm giving a shiny the move, meet

It's not one I would bother evolving, if it wasn't shiny.

I played on two one hour blocks, yesterday. Hot 4 shines on quick succession in the first and none in the second. It's been peeing down all night and I'm hoping it's eased off enough by 10 to go out and try to get some more.

HELP!!!!
I am bereft. I can't get the app to work on my phone. Anyone got any suggestions?

It goes happily through the loading screen. Gets to 100% and gives the standard warning where you have to click 'OK'. Then closes and asks if I want to send an error report.
It is an android (Samsung A3). No recent system updates and none due. PoGo hasn't recently updates.
I've tried Googling and done the standard uninstall/reinstall. I've turned it off and on again. I've cleared both cache and data from the app. I've cleared storage space on the phone.

What else can I try? I only did an hour on Eevee day yesterday and wanted to do more today. I've got an Ex Raid next week.

HELP!

GreenShadow Oh no! Have you tried emailing Niantic?

GreenShadow · 12/08/2018 09:48

Not yet What but that could be the next option. Do they actually respond to individual queries?

WickedLazy · 12/08/2018 09:48

Ds staying in his grans, so I went to bed and got up early for the community day, (which I missed yesterday), excited to see what I get. Got my power bank all charged up, hoping I get a decent haul. This will be my dog again later Grin

GreenShadow They do! And quickly too. I have emailed them a few times and they’ve always been prompt and helpful.

OrianaBanana · 12/08/2018 13:03

All I am getting today are rubbish Eevees I don’t want to evolve (millions of them) and no shinies. Hmm

SneakyGremlins · 12/08/2018 13:07

I have now:

Shiny Vaporeon
Shiny Flareon
Shiny Jolteon
9.8km walked Shiny soon-to-be Espeon
0km walked Shiny soon-to-be Umbreon
Shiny soon-to-be Glaceon
Shiny soon-to-be Leafeon
Shiny soon-to-be Sylveon
Shiny Eevee
Spare Shiny Eevee

Smile

Will there be a naming trick when the next ones are released?

WickedLazy · 12/08/2018 13:13

One evolution done, I got a few shinies, IV's not terrible, and a few decent IV regular Eevees.

tryingtocatchthewind · 12/08/2018 13:19

I only had an hour to go out today, caught over 55 eevees but I didn’t get any shinies Sad

TakeAChanseyOnMe · 12/08/2018 13:51

I only got a short time today, caught quite a few but no shinies.

Mine have mostly been rubbish IV too, I’ve found that with a lot of community days. I didn’t get any over 90% on Larvitar day.

Did anything think the Eevees had a lower flew rate? They’re fairly common around me but tend to flee easily.

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 12/08/2018 13:52

I managed to pick up a whole load of shiny eevees today. Poor DD only got 2. She's gutted bless her.

Will walk a couple of my shinies to get shiny umbreon and shiny espeon, but not fussed if they get last resort or not.

Anyone know when leafeon and glaceon are coming? May keep a couple of shinies back just for them.

PyeWackets · 12/08/2018 14:18

Managed to bag 12 shinies over the 2 days. Dd managed 10 so I gave her one of kine so we're even. I've evolved the usual 3, luckily no doubles, now walking for the other 2.

And my Vaporeon now it's been powered up a bit, it was the lowest hp/cp shiny I found, but had the best IV, so worth it. Going to evolve some random non shinies now.

SirNilsOlav · 12/08/2018 15:07

We have twins, Sneaky!

None of my shinies were good IV, but I got one of each shiny main eeveelution (plus spare vaporeons), two in reserve to be the walking ones and two more to be glaceon and leafeon and three spare eevee. Successful weekend :)

I have just spent a damn hour traipsing around, not a single sodding evee!!

PyeWackets · 12/08/2018 17:50

Squidgee, they were only around 10 till 1, then they all ran away.
