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

Hell Fire and churches - awesome combination Grin

bettytaghetti · 31/08/2018 08:35

If Binkacat should happen to see this, we are due to go ultra today.
You should have a gift from me to open but I have a couple of others also today, so if you could let me know roughly what time you might be opening, that would be great. Many thanks!

I'm off to Germany in 5 weeks for my niece's wedding and my mum's house is across the street from the Catholic village church and the graveyard. All the pokestops are at crucifixes or stations of the cross, or a Bildstock (wayside shrines), there is a gym at a crucifix where the parish priests are buried. It feels a bit weird doing a battle there.

I was east central London yesterday so the Hell Fire was street art. Actually there were quite a few dark street art ones such as children with grenades. Unfortunately the Hoff with a surfboard one wasn't giving out gifts Grin
Back the local churches and political party clubs today though.

bettytaghetti · 31/08/2018 12:03

Can't quite understand anyone throwing away gifts since you get 200xp for everyone you send! I'm sending gifts mostly from south London, which is not always the most photogenic part of the country, so I do apologise if anyone thinks the 'wrapping paper' is substandard, lol!

Well done Sneaky. I'll be on day 4 when I spin today's pokestop. I just missed out on maximum efficiency when I completed evolving Umbreon as I realised it was a few minutes to midnight and I couldn't face a mad dash down the road in the nick of time. 😂

bettytaghetti · 31/08/2018 13:10

Congrats Sneaky!

TeamRocket · 31/08/2018 13:12

@bettytaghetti same here-I do pretty much the same walk with DS in the pram every day in south London so my gifts are quite monotonous 😁 heading central for the day tomorrow though so my friends will get a bit of variation!

Still plodding on with the celebi task, I've almost walked enough to evolve an umbreon but doesn't look like I'll manage it until tomorrow now

SneakyGremlins · 31/08/2018 13:25

I was going to go sit in the park then remembered it has two lakes and a river in it, so more water types than grass types appear. And a lot of Ekans Confused

SneakyGremlins · 31/08/2018 13:28

Also - before I put one on and waste it do lucky eggs double special research XP?

SirNilsOlav · 31/08/2018 14:38

I travelled yesterday (physically to and from mainland Europe, not forward in time for the glitch!) and it seems to have reset my pokestop progress back to day 1.

Unimpressed - looking at the silphroad it seems to have been put in to stop "time travel" but is a bit overzealous 🙄

TangelasVine · 31/08/2018 15:58

Ah that's rubbish SirNils
There were people changing phone time zones to do tasks more quickly so perhaps that's why? Unfair if you are genuinely travelling though!

I'm still on hatching 9 eggs but I do take my time with things Grin

SirNilsOlav · 31/08/2018 16:26

Yeah, I think that's it Tangelas! I wasn't even away over two days which makes it more annoying (flew out morning and back late afternoon... Joys of paperwork needing to be completed in person!) but it's the only thing I can think of that would have reset it.

When I span this morning here it reset back to 1 of 7 days despite all the spins that "counted" having been done here.

SneakyGremlins · 31/08/2018 16:29

Annoyed with this excellent curve ball task!

PickAChew · 31/08/2018 16:39

Betty, I have about 25 friends, about 3/4 of which might be able to accept gifts on a given day. On a day when I spin 50 or more pokestops, I can afford to be selective about which gifts I keep and pass on.

Then again, I was staying with family, last weekend and I couldn't afford to discard any. I'll most likely have a lot of days like that when the kids are back at school, too. Most of my close to home stops are pretty mundane.

RueDeWakening · 31/08/2018 17:15

Sneaky - yes it does. Lucky egg away!

RueDeWakening · 31/08/2018 17:20

Oh and I'm afraid I'm all out of cool Disneyland gifts already, back to dull South London ones tomorrow! With the odd gold postbox occasionally.

CatchingACold · 31/08/2018 17:30

I have loved the 3 Disneyland gifts that I have received. Mine are the Singapore and koh Samui. Been a bit short in Thailand as the poke stops don’t give out many but back to Singapore tomorrow and then London

Who is is LA?
And Germany?
And Malaysia?

trapinch · 31/08/2018 19:19

Catching - I have this lovely trio evolved from my Singapore hatch. Thanks!

No egg from the Gift today though 🙁

Hi Catchingacold, thanks for the Koh Samui gifts .

I've recently got back from Malaysia, so it's possible I sent you those. I managed to get the gold pilot medal when we were away by trading with DS. At 11,500km per trade, it didn't take very long.

SneakyGremlins · 31/08/2018 23:20

AAAAAAAAAA

Only 2 spawn points in my house and the first was vanilla wingull.

Sickened that there's now 6 around my parents' house in the armpit of nowhere.

SupplychainNpton · 01/09/2018 00:03

Hatching eggs complete today. I'm in no rush.
The recent XP bonuses have stopped me grinding. I'm nearly at level 40.
I caught 5 Regice, then lost interest a bit.
I have been ill recently, so I fell off the radar a bit.
Did community day and managed 15 shinies. Did a solo Alolan Raichu raid to get the Celebi credits, but still not comfortable raiding properly yet.

Looking forward to gen 4, and getting immersed again.

SneakyGremlins · 01/09/2018 00:52

I was warm in bed, but then my second favourite Pokémon appeared on nearby...
