PokemonGo #20. There's a Ratatta in my kitchen, chuck a ball at it.

Shiny new thread!

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

I’m quite pleased about it, mainly because 2 of my DCs don’t have them all and they might stop whining about it! 😁

pottypotamus · 29/11/2018 21:49

Oooh I'm pleased about that too!! I only started playing in August and only have Suicune and crappy Shedinja.

Question for you guys...I am on day 6 of the field research stamps. So the next time I claim a reward I will be able to encounter the special pokemon. If I skip tomorrow and claim day 7 on Dec 1st, will I still get Shedinja?

WitchSharkadder · 29/11/2018 22:24

Potty, if you wait until 1st Dec after 9pm you’ll get the special Pokemon. Don’t press collect your stamp before 9 though, you’ll be stuck with another Shedinja.

Play your cards right and you can encounter 5 pokes in Dec Smile

Look!
I've got a tyranitar!
DS and I went into town to look for raids but there were only 5s and the tyranitar, which is level 4. I put a shout for help on the local PoGo WhatsApp group and a couple of 40s came to our rescue.
Okay, at 78% he's a bit pony and I've wiped out my stardust and Larvitar candies powering him up (he was only 1789) but he's mine! And I caught him!

@dillite I did some evolving, all good Smile

PickAChew · 29/11/2018 22:34

Actually, I'm sure someone on tsr said that alolan marowak did count. Evolved forms often do count towards catch n x quests. You could evolve both forms of meowth, back when that was a field research quest.

Lovely @BaronessBomburst!

I feel so fond of my wee gang of Tyranitars. Definitely one of my faves.

IncyWincyGrownUp · 29/11/2018 23:22

Ttars are awesome. You need a shiny one next!

BaronessBomburst · 29/11/2018 23:44

My favourite Pokémon is my fat, fluffy, purple Gengar. He throws mud. I've named him after a nephew who is 5 and has the same demented, cheeky grin. And who throws mud. Grin

IncyWincyGrownUp · 29/11/2018 23:48

It’s not safe to allow my six year old to peruse my dex, I go back to find most of his favourites have been renamed.

He then gets rage if I revert them to the names they had before.

Living with stroppy Pokemon obsessed autistic dictators is hard going sometimes, but can also be quite hysterical! :o

Party Animal has always reminded me of 1980's t-shirts. Those with Club Tropicana, and flamingoes and surfers on.
She was one of my first pokes. She spawned on the corner outside our house. I used to use her for battles but she's retired now.

@WitchSharkadder, yaay cool thanks, I'll do just that! Don't want another flamin Shedinja! Envy

PickAChew · 30/11/2018 00:30

One of my pokemon obsessed autistic dictators keeps trying to evolve everything with a green button. Including magiksrp! Ti's the reason I made him his own account. I took it out for a spin after the storm had finally passed, this afternoon, and caught him a shiny plusle. Iny iny

PickAChew · 30/11/2018 00:30

Ugh. That purple betting ad did weird stuff, there.

BaronessBomburst · 30/11/2018 01:01

Does he name them too?
I'd love to know what your favourite Pokes are called!
I know it goes on. I can see a Dave and a Bo0bThighs walking with their trainers.......
'Fess up!

A selection from the account of the smallest of the stroppy Pokemon obsessed autistic dictator’s account. Child makes no sense.

Horror Dog is fabulous! Grin

putthehamsterbackinitscage · 30/11/2018 07:23

@mrsjamin I can do noon today...

I've got some evolves waiting on an egg that I can do today so I don't need to do them when I can be catching stuff tomorrow...

OrianaBanana · 30/11/2018 07:30

Fed up now I couldn’t complete the Meltan tasks in time. I can’t find any Grimers, and the encounters I was keeping with Aerodactyl and Scyther for later have disappeared. Sad

Bellebp · 30/11/2018 07:45

In the early days my kids named most of my Pokemon, I still have some and some I actually call by that name as I forget it has a real name 😂 cubone is Barney Boney and always will be for me!

OrianaBanana Alolan Grimers are still common in 7km eggs so open some gifts and get walking Grin

What do you mean ‘disappeared’?

MrsJamin · 30/11/2018 08:31

@putthehamsterbackinitscage @Bimblepops I would rather Saturday at 10 actually, as I thought the spawns were going to be around today but I'd rather head out tomorrow. Is that OK? Would be cool if we can manage a three-way lucky egg Ultra friend combo!

Before I evolved it I had a Pidgey named PC McGarry because it had 452CP, and a Caterpie named Phil Taylor as it had 180CP.

BouleBaker · 30/11/2018 09:17

Is Spriterly on here? We’re due to go Best Friends next time we interact. Do you want to co-ordinate?
