Shiny new thread!

I'm loving the new special research. I'm not loving that none of my Pikachu have been shiny. Harrumph (Dr)

MrsJamin I think from experience, they come out in the order they went in and if you run from it that's still the one that would come up again until you catch it.
Cleared out my stack last week but I think there may have been one or two that went in before they did the rebalance. I've just tried to input a magikarp into pokegenie that came out of the stack, and it doesn't like the data. Know it's not a 💯 so binned it, but will be upset if there's much more in there that I can't use properly ifyswim. Don't know if it's something that might be cured by powering up or evolving?

Just checking in as I usually lose you guys when a new thread happens.

GhoulMythicalMoooaning · 19/11/2018 09:35

Still no shinys here.

ContraryToPopularBelief · 19/11/2018 09:38

Just checking in to the new thread. I've finally sussed our Adventure Sync. The reward is awarded on Mondays at 9am. NOT when you pass each 'level'. I think this is good because it means you can be pretty sure of having an egg slot open.
I got a 10km egg! Yay!!

Also Envy at shiny Mareep!!! Want!!!

Just caught my first ever non event shiny. It was a grimer who is my favourite pokemon big drooly baby
Not sure if he's any good. Or if he's actually a she in fact.

Hi, placemarking. Thanks for info re Charged/Fast TM thingies wailmer Such a multilayered game.
No playing for me today, as having work on the house but will dash out later to spin a pokestop to get my 7 day streak rewards. I've got an EX Raid invite for Thursday - are they usually high level bosses? It's middle of the day in a residential area so I'll probably be the only one!

SirNilsOlav · 19/11/2018 14:06

Also place marking.

Finally got a shiny drowzee yesterday and was very pleased with that!

TrashPanda · 19/11/2018 14:27

Juni Ex-raids are currently Deoxys which is very high level, no chance of doing it alone. Are there any local Facebook, WhatsApp or Discord groups in your area?

tiredvommachine · 19/11/2018 15:14

Checking in. Two shiny magikarp in two days! Shock

WitchSharkadder · 19/11/2018 16:04

Envy at shiny magikarp. That’s the one I really want.

Yy, Juni, check local FB/Discord FB pages. There’ll probably be people there though, the ex raids I’ve been to have all been the middle of weekdays and still very busy.

WitchSharkadder · 19/11/2018 16:07

Emajo, KnittingGenie Rosiebear, Fuzzybird, would you like to co-ordinate lucky eggs for going Ultra?

ghostsandghoulies · 19/11/2018 16:12

Round here about 10 invites go out and those 10 people invite a person to attend so we end up with 20+ people total.

2 level 40s in our group defeated Deoxys but it was tight.

tryingtocatchthewind · 19/11/2018 16:14

Hello 👋 everyone over here - finally I won’t have the song stuck in my head every time I open mumsnet!

I’ve just evolved a grimer, got 5 slugma and now need a few more
Great throws which obviously I now can’t do! Starting to panic about scyther candy

JuniLoolaPalooza · 19/11/2018 16:43

Thanks for the EX Raid info, will ask on my FB group and see who turns up. Spotted two guys battling the gym yesterday so maybe they'll be there! We shall see!

Evolved an eevee into vaporeon today so that's great - eevee's are a household favourite, we even have a talking toy!

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 19/11/2018 17:12

Very jealous of the shiny karp action.

SneakyGremlins · 19/11/2018 17:20

Hiiiiii

JuniLoolaPalooza If you are the only one you won’t be able to defeat it.

However, ex-raid invites are only sent out when enough people have raided that gym to trigger an ex-raid, so providing a few of those that received invites can come, you should be fine. Just turn up at the start time and wait.

Ex-raids were previously Mewtwo, they are now Deoxys.

Poor zigzagoon.

WitchSharkadder · 19/11/2018 18:17

I can almost hear David Attenborough narrating that, Baroness.

CrabbitArse · 19/11/2018 18:27

@bettytaghetti powering them up does work apparently, at least according to my local Discord group, should rebalance the CP so you can calculate the IVs again

SneakyGremlins · 19/11/2018 18:29

@dillite @BettyTaghetti I think we're due to go ultra friends!

Bellebp · 19/11/2018 19:19

I am not a magnet for shinies and have only 3, but I did get a shiny pikachu yesterday which I’m very happy about - even if it’s only 50 something and totally rubbish
