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

The eggs can also contain Alolans too which will be annoying unless they seriously reduce the percentage chance of hatching those.

SneakyGremlins · 11/09/2018 10:48

You just know they won't.

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 11/09/2018 10:51

I read somewhere that they removed the Alolan Rattatas from the eggs a while back. Not sure if its true and I can bet my luck will be first few eggs I accept will contain them Sad.

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 11/09/2018 10:56

OhLookHeKickedTheBall Alolan Ratatta’s haven’t been in eggs for quite some time which I think is a real shame as I was using them in my regular mass evolves.

SneakyGremlins · 11/09/2018 10:58

I don't know what your area is like Wailmer but I see about 15-20 a day around my house!

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 11/09/2018 11:01

SneakyGremlins I see Ratatta’s on a regular basis but I still really enjoyed them in eggs as it got my candy for them into the thousands, helping my multiple mass evolves per week.

SneakyGremlins · 11/09/2018 11:12

Forgot you get more candy from eggs Grin

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 11/09/2018 11:19

Ah yes, candy - the only benefit of hatching one of those little $%%$@@s. Well stardust and stuff too. But after 7km I still can't forgive them Grin

purplecorkheart · 11/09/2018 12:43

Noy sure if I am allowed post this or not. I have started back playing but know no one in real life who plays. My trainer code is 4956 7398 5857 if anyone would add me. Thanks

TangelasVine · 11/09/2018 13:23

I once had 4 creepy Mr Mimes in my house at once, so I expect I'll hatch a fair few.
Ahh interesting about regionals not being from that regions eggs. That would have been cool though - like a proper souvenir from abroad

Efferlunt · 11/09/2018 13:51

Ah all that effort to get a taurous in the US was wasted then! Still I only have Farfetched, Kangstan and Mewtoo to go to complete my Kanto Dex so this will help.

sonicshoegazes · 11/09/2018 14:33

I'm walking with my bloody eevee it's driving me insane!!!

I'll send gifts over the next few days. I've been stuck in the house the last few days.

I'm off to Kiev next week...I'm hoping to find some different Pokémon. We need gen 4 released already Niantic!!!!

TallulahBetty · 11/09/2018 14:53

FINALLY found someone to trade with! And look what I got! I should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky.. Grin

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 11/09/2018 15:11

Since Niantic are intent on removing Mewtwo’s exclusive status, with Mewtwo’s base catch rate having been exceedingly high at 6%, I really hope they nuke it down to 2% like Lugia and Ho-Oh.

That’s the very least I expect at this point.

SneakyGremlins · 11/09/2018 17:35

I've done five Regirock raids.

Five consecutive raids where I got it with every ball, and it broke out, then fled.

Five consecutive raids where I got 0 rare candy.

Is this just bad luck? 🤔

CrabbitArse · 11/09/2018 17:47

With the advent of trading is there such a thing as an exclusive Pokémon though?

SneakyGremlins · 11/09/2018 17:51

I think you can't currently trade Mewtwo.

SirNilsOlav · 11/09/2018 17:52

I'm not sure on the candy Sneaky but despite the catch rate being similar/identical to other legendaries the real life perception of Regirock definitely seems to be that it's harder to catch (across two seperate groups I'm in). There are a lot of reports of having great/excellent curves on all balls and it breaking out. Combined with it being a bit rubbish and the number of T5 getting done has quite dramatically fallen!

rainingcatsanddog · 11/09/2018 18:16

You can trade Mewtwo but if one person hasn't got it then the stardust cost may be prohibitive.

rainingcatsanddog · 11/09/2018 18:17

I think no rare candy from 5 tier 5 Raids is very unusual.

SneakyGremlins · 11/09/2018 18:36

raining other people in the raid seem to get some Sad

SneakyGremlins Raid rewards are determined by your raid performance, the team controlling the gym and your gym badge rank.

So if you did poorly in the raid (didn’t contribute as much damage as others, used Pokemon that weren’t effective or had poor movesets, fainted more than others etc. etc.), another team is controlling the gym, and/or you only have a bronze or silver gym badge on that gym, your rewards will be lower and not as prestigious as the ones others recieve.

On the contrary, if you have gold on the gym, you contributed a lot of damage and/or your team has control of the gym, you are more likely to receive more and better rewards.

Raid rewards aren’t completely random; they’re individual and personal to you.
