Pokemon Go #18: You ain't nothin' but a Houndoom.

[DoctorTwo]

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

Welcome to the new thread.

[WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue]

according to my discord group, won't be active until 9pm UK time... Hope this is accurate!

tiredvommachine Yes, it’s accurate. Pretty much all events start and end at 9pm for us.

[OhLookHeKickedTheBall]

I've been out two sessions today, got no gifts to give to anyone

[MrsJamin]

Waiting to evolve a fire Pokemon after 9pm to get the Raichu! My last Snorlax was 97% so happy not getting another one.

[MrsJamin]

Yay!

Spinda is finally in the game and can be caught from the ‘Land 3 curveballs in a row’ task so look out for that as it has 8 forms!

Also shiny Houndour is now live

[MrsJamin]

There's some. New research tasks added too, land three curveballs in row gives you a Spinda apparently.

[MrsJamin]

Crosspost, @WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue!

Here’s a list of all confirms research tasks: www.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/93sfbu/questmegathread_01082018_raikou_edition/?st=jkbo2jtm&sh=4471a511

You want to keep an eye out for ‘Evolve A Meowth’ too as that gives you Houndour as a reward and could be shiny.

Shiny Snubbull has been released as well!

Look out for the research task ‘Catch A Skitty or Poochyena’ as Snubbull is the reward and could be shiny.

I've had a nervous breakdown. No mons for me lately.
Managed 5 Regice - trashed most of them (5/7)
No Registeel/ Allolan Raichu or Marowak yet.
Even ignored my last Ex-raid.
Onward, and upwards.
The Silph Road reckon that we'll have the gen 4 evolutions this week. Magnezone et al.
It's a very good source. 100% accurate so far.
I need to get out of the house, so this would be a godsend. Pokemon gods - help me!

[throwawayagain]

Excellent curve? I get them often on Machop and Wailmer. Make sure you stop, focus, and spin from the bottom corner.
You CAN do it!

[throwawayagain]

MewTwo has an insane catch rate.
I'm 4 for 4.
If you have a ballsy catcher in your group, never fail to ask them.
I'm cool with it now, but the first was scary.
Good luck!

MewTwo has an insane catch rate.

throwawayagain Mewtwo’s catch rate is only 6%, although that is higher than all other legendarys which range between 2-3% depending on the Pokemon. 4/4 is incredibly lucky.

I can’t see anything on the TSR’s actual website about Gen IV this week, and while there is a lot of theorising on TSR’s reddit and a lot of it is accurate, quite a bit of it isn’t as it’s just a bunch of people with a load of theories. Some are more credible than others with access to game data, however they are not 100% accurate.

The gentleman who has ‘leaked’ the Gen IV Evolution event has been right in the past with leaking the water and eggstravaganza events, but there are many cases both for and against him being right this time. It is still just a rumour.

[WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue]

I’ve attached a handy little infographic of all the current Pokémon-specific quests and rewards as well as all of Spinda’s 8 forms for you to catch

[SneakyGremlins]

Thankyou Wailmer!

I like the theory that as they've only released Spinda#8 they're counting down to something...

[OhLookHeKickedTheBall]

Doing marginally better today. I've had two gifts to give out! Popping back out again in a it so will hopefully get some more. But wow, is this a dry gift spell

[bettytaghetti]

OhLook I've been finding gifts not dropping as frequently too. On Tuesday I spun 13 stops before I got one.

[LBOCS2]

That'll do - 94% 😁

[SneakyGremlins]

"Can Murkrow be shiny?" I asked my friend, as THIS APPEARED ON MY SCREEN

[WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue]

Congrats SneakyGremlins! Yeah, shiny Murkrow was introduced about March time but I only got my own last month

[SneakyGremlins]

And we caught a wild Chansey each and traded them - tadahhhh

[tiredvommachine]

--->Shiny Murkrow

[WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue]

Ooh trading is now 25% less stardust for a while! Also new boxes in the shop

[WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue]

Here is an updated version of the Shiny Dex with the new additions
