You come and post. Shiny new thread to which all are welcome. Including me, for some reason.

Thank you! I have accepted but I don't have any gifts left at the mo. I promise I'll send one as soon as I pick one up :)

Thanks for the YouTube tip too!

I caught a red Gary on DS' account. I'm gutted as I still don't have one and he now has 3! He's got 5 shiny bagons too, as well as a shelgon and a salamance but won't trade even though he knows I want a big fat shelgon pistachio nut.

Shall I confiscate his phone? Grin

JuniLoolaPalooza · 28/01/2020 18:46

Yes baroness do it.
Wtf is this new feature?! I can't keep up with everything now.

PanamaPattie · 28/01/2020 20:15

Any idea what the new battle icon is about?

OhLookHeKickedTheBall · 28/01/2020 20:43

Sent you a request fun. I'm ginup on there

VivaLeBeaver · 28/01/2020 20:49

The battle icon is some form of player vs player system.

I haven't caught a red Gary in the wild but I already had 2 and I've found another 2 shiny karps this event.

Can Vulpix be shiny? I thought only Alolan could and they don't spawn in the wild.

BaronessBomburst · 29/01/2020 08:15

I think shiny Vulpix was an option for the next Community Day, so they're not available yet.
The battle icon unlocked briefly for DS and I yesterday evening and we had a look. It didn't work properly though.
As we've worked it out (may be wrong) you can win battles against other trainers for rewards. There were two leagues with better rewards in the higher one. Rewards varied from one rare candy for a win in the lower league to things like stardust, and four charge TMs for winning 4 out of 5 battles in the higher league. Before you battle (first one is free) you have to walk 5 km to unlock a battle pass. You have a set period to win your reward and then the battle season resets for everyone. It may be that you have to choose your reward in advance, it wasn't clear and the rewards didn't work.
DS and I fix battles (who doesn't? Grin) so it looks like we'll have to walk double and take it in turns to get a winning streak.
I need those charge TMs! I've so far used 16 on a groudon who just switches between Solar Beam and Fire Blast. I need Earthquake!!!

@Blueroses99 and @WitchSharkadder we're 1 day away from best friends - I'm Woongy100. Would you like to co-ordinegg? I already have a gift from Blueroses99 but would need WitchSharkadder to open mine or send one to me. Does 10.00am Saturday suit you? Happy to wait for the next Community Day if you prefer.

Ihatesundays · 29/01/2020 13:06

Is @popandcas on here?

WitchSharkadder · 29/01/2020 15:10

Hi, @Olinguito I'll send you a gift when I can (see below) so you can open whenever suits as I might forget. I'm not too bothered as I'm level 40 now anyway but I'll try and get an egg on.

Is anyone else having issues with their friends list since the update? I can't swipe onto it from the avatar screen thingy (iyswim) so I cant open/send gifts. Which is a pita as I'm trying to hatch darumakas.

WitchSharkadder · 29/01/2020 15:11

BTW, @Olinguito, if I forget to send you a gift when I get my friends list working again, just give me another shout out on here so it pings me. Smile

Corneliusmurphy · 29/01/2020 16:54

Vulpix doesn’t have a shiny yet, if it wins the votes for community day it will be available for the first time then (kanto form) although I’m leaning towards Ryhorn personally...

FunDiddlyDo · 29/01/2020 20:01

Thank you to everyone who took pitty on me and added me / sent gifts. Feel like I'm actually getting somewhere now :)

DoctorTwo · 30/01/2020 15:00

A friend in our local group has just encountered a wild SHINY Vulpix. So it's out there, we just have to find it.

BaronessBomburst · 30/01/2020 15:18

Are you sure it wasn't an Alolan Vulpix? They were released into the wild at the end of last year. They're white with lavender and light blue feet.

Blueroses99 · 30/01/2020 17:03

@Olinguito Saturday is good but I’ll be in an activity with DD at 10am. Is 11.30 any good? Or other time in the afternoon. Alternatively there’s a event 2-5pm on Sunday and we could time it with the start of that?

DoctorTwo · 30/01/2020 18:32

Absotively posolute BaronessB, I'm looking at the screenshot she posted and it has the stars in a circle above the CP.

You sure you haven't been drinking Doctor?! 🤣🤣

BaronessBomburst · 30/01/2020 20:57

Can you post the screenshot? Scribble out any incriminating information.
I would post mine but I evolved her.

BaronessBomburst · 30/01/2020 21:01

Shiny Alolan Ninetails.

Is anyone still on here that is friends with RosiePerissa?

HappyPunky · 30/01/2020 21:59

Has everyone got the new battle option? I've done three so far, lost the first one then won the second one. Just deliberately lost a battle to get a heart with my buddy for battling together.
I don't think I can be bothered with them though I don't want rsi from bashing the screen on my phone all the time.

TrashPanda · 30/01/2020 22:04

Last update I saw was Level 35 plus had it. I'm on 4 wins out of 10 and got 2 TMs as rewards so far.

HappyPunky · 30/01/2020 22:39

I got some stardust when I won
