With the upcoming Swinub community day, honouring the year of the pig, it had to be done.

Another blooming entei for my 7 day field research.

Where the hell is my Lugia?!!!

tumpymummy · 18/02/2019 09:04

soubriquet you could have had one of mine, they're a real bugger to catch, take loads of balls!

SirNilsOlav · 18/02/2019 09:06

Actually it sometimes feels a bit like we come on one thread to be lectured at over and over about how we're all playing the game wrong...

On a less negative note, a massive thanks to all of DS new friends, he's totally thrilled! He's out of gifts but working at catching everything he sees so he should be able to spin stops to replenish soon.

DarthBraider & Grebothecat
I’m really sorry, but I think my DS has just triggered our getting to Great and Ultra friends. Hope you’ve still got time to put an egg on.

TallulahBetty · 18/02/2019 09:29

Yea SirNils I feel like that too. People can play the game the way they want, And shouldn't be lectured at or told their suggestions are silly. That is rude and not needed. This is supposed to be a fun thread about a fun game, but I don't find it fun reading some posts.

putthehamsterbackinitscage · 18/02/2019 10:27

@SirNilsOlav I'm going to open his gift later or tomorrow...

@BaronessBomburst - we can level up next interaction - do you want to put an egg on later or tomorrow?

JuniLoolaPalooza · 18/02/2019 14:24

Haha sneaky I was like 'ooh gardevoir raids?!'.

I got a shiny swinub on Saturday, yay!

Glad it's not just me having pokegenie issues. Only problem now is that my google play isn't being very good so I can't update it! GAH!

WhatToDoAboutWailmerGoneRogue · 18/02/2019 14:47

I haven’t said anyone is playing the game wrong; there’s no need to be so dramatic. The game can be played however you like, but if you use a feature in a way it’s not intended for of course you’re going to come up against issues.

IncyWincyGrownUp · 19/02/2019 01:13

My seven year old has decided that the account he has been using is all wrong, and has insisted on starting a new one. This may be because he wants to be yellow. He won’t be told that it’s a mug’s game. Oh well, he’ll learn! (Predominantly blue and red area)

So we now have five accounts in a family of four. Community days are tricksy beasts!

BouleBaker · 19/02/2019 08:50

I haven’t managed to get on here much lately although I have been quickly scanning for any egg shout outs.

SirNils I’ve added your DS if that’s ok.

Also, is Willmagikarp Ginupgirl and Wurzelperry we are about to go Best Friends if you fancy coordinating an egg and I can stop DS2 opening every gift in sight.

Sorry if I’ve turned down any trainer battles but have been a bit embroiled in something. Am usually up for battles after 8 pm, if that’s ok with Wailmer.

SneakyGremlins · 19/02/2019 09:17

My adventure sync turned itself off Hmm

SirNilsOlav · 19/02/2019 09:35

Thanks Boule, I'm pretty sure it was you he's accepted this morning! His bag is still stuffed (thanks adventure sync) but I'm taking him for a walk after work so that should clear him some space so he can get gifts to send and open some :)

bettytaghetti · 19/02/2019 10:37

Sneaky did you have to log back in to the app at some point? Someone in our group pointed out that it turns off adventure sync if you do.

SneakyGremlins · 19/02/2019 10:38

Oh does it??? That'll explain it.

Still done 5.3km today Grin

Soubriquet · 19/02/2019 11:31

Anyone knows which these two will evolve into?

I’ve already got a hitmontop and hitmonlee

Would be nice to get a hitmonchan

For hitmonchan the tyrouges higest IV must be it’s defence :)

MrsFoxPlus4 · 19/02/2019 12:19

Apprently a new change coming to Pokemon go is being able to change teams once a year through the shop. I’m mystic in a mostly mystic area but if anyone was wanting to change I’d keep a look out :)

Soubriquet · 19/02/2019 12:27

So are any of those two any good? Or do I need to wait another one?

BouleBaker · 19/02/2019 12:34

My adventure sync did that too SneakyGremlins. Was a few days before I noticed which was annoying.

Tell him not to stress about sending gifts SirNils, I’ll keep bunging them his way when I can.

MrsFoxPlus4 · 19/02/2019 13:46

I honestly don’t read IVs like that. I read it through appraisal. If defense is its highest stat it’ll turn into a hitmonchan.

Soubriquet · 19/02/2019 13:57

Ah thank you. I’ll try that then

Soubriquet · 19/02/2019 13:58

Damn. Both have HP as their highest.

So still hunting that hitmonchan

BaronessBomburst · 19/02/2019 14:47

@putthehamsterbackinitscage are you in a hurry? Can you wait until Wednesday, or even next week? I'm hoping either to coordinate with other players, or pick a time when I can raid/ evolve. If that mucks you up, just go ahead and open the gift.

BaronessBomburst · 19/02/2019 14:50

On a lighter note, here's DS' birthday cake. We made it together.
