This Mankey's Gone To Devon. Pokemon Go Thread #26

[DoctorTwo]

Shiny new thread. Enjoy! or not, depending on how the Pokemon Gods are treating you.

When does the half distance eggs last until?

Are there any psychic or steel pokemon about currently? I need 50 and only have 1 so far.

And the hell kinda reward is a flower eevee?!?!? Especially after legendaries. I was so disappointed.

2 full days of searching I have 7 steel/psychic.

mr mimes and natu are psychic and there are a few of them about.

Raichu in raids also counts.

Other than that if you can get hold of a meltan box you'll get about 15 in one go.

Half distance eggs for one week so until next Tuesday.

I got a shiny gligar today! I’m so pleased, I hardly ever get the shinies!

How on earth could one get a relicanth or a tropius? I have never seen or hatched one.

Al the gligars are in my living room. None have had the sense to be shiny, mind.

Just realised that DS2 doesn't have octillery, yet, but we've been ignoring all the remoraid in the past 2 events!

@dillite, they're regionals. Need to trade them or wait for an event when they're all over.

Everyone else got 15 minute eggs going up, with hour and a half raids on?

Getchakitoff we go ultra and I need a gift to open and I need to egg please.

I am so pleased right now!! Been hatching as many 10k eggs as I get. Hurrah!!

I’ve only had one 10k egg so far, wasn’t an unown .

I got 2 shinies in 2 days, an Eevee from an egg and a wild Gligar. Quite pleased with that.

pixymuree I think we go ultra at next interaction? Would you like to coordinegg on community day? (someone remind me when it is...!)

Failed to solo a donphan today, disappointed.

I’ve had four 10km eggs. 4th has 0.5kb to go. No Unowns yet.

@YogaDrone Community Day is 11am-2pm on 15th I believe, no idea what I’m doing on that day but shall we say 11am for now but we can change nearer the time if that’s going to be tricky for either of us. In terms of a battle, are you available tomorrow at all?

@Dulcedelecherocks Thanks for the tip! It says ‘Win’ but makes it easier obviously if you don’t have to. I caught a 100% Gligar from my living room which I now have enough candy to evolve but no Sinnoh Stones (and now I want some Dulce de leche 😀)

It's just occurred to me- I probably should be incubating all my 2K eggs to try and get as many 10K eggs as possible shouldn't I? Not incubating the 10K ones.

TinselAngel, my technique while the incubators are extra effective is to use my infinity incubator to get rid of 2k & 5K eggs and use the super/incubators I got in a box to do 10k & 7k eggs. 2k eggs are down to 1k now so on a half an hour walk I can get rid of at least a couple of 2k eggs. I've hatched 32 this week across the board!
I'm finding most eggs have a lot of shite (do i really need to hatch a bloody swablu?!) and no shinies so I'm particularly pleased to hatch the unown.

I try not to spend actual money on the game but the thought of extra incubators is very tempting!

In related news, I have just bought extra incubators.

I've been doing the same as Juni, using the infinity incubator to quickly get rid of 2 & 5kms as quickly as possible. I saved all my gyms coins as soon as the event was announced to buy super incubators and have been using those for 10kms.

I think I've done pretty well so far

😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Is there a way to get 10km eggs or is it just luck?

I've got mine from spinning gyms mostly I think. Maybe stops too. It's luck mainly as I've had 2k ones too but burning through them.
My eldest DC started school this week and with all the to-ing and fro-ing I've hit the 25k target for the second time ever. I was so disappointed last time to get a 5k egg, I hope it's better this time!

I decided to ignore the unowns (I got some in Dortmund anyway) and save for raid passes for Mewtwo. I'm hoping to get the Ultra box, which ironically will also give me incubators. I might manage to buy it in time to catch the tail end of the regional eggs.
