Pokemon Go Thread #28: Careless Whismur.

[DoctorTwo]

Shiny new thread.

Our local group had our first socially distant raid t'other day, there were 11 in the lobby and only 3 of us were physically at the gym. The bantz on the message group afterwards was funny though after I introduced them to a new word.

That's the negative side of lockdown, many players are too worried to get within 10m of another. There are some friends I haven't seen in months, and just a few I have seen to have a socially distant chat. Still, mustn't grumble.

Hello!
I have been adding friends from on here 😁
Does anyone know... My buddy keeps bringing me gifts, but they don't seem to appear in my items bag. I know I can't have more than 20 at any one time, but today I had 6 in my bag, my buddy found me 10, but then I still only had 6 in my bag.
Is this part of the known issue with friends?

I find that the gifts are in my item bag long before my buddy brings them to me. And I only ever get half the number of gifts that fly across the screen in the animation. I've often sent the gifts before I officially revive them - most noticeable when I'm at work and get gifts from a Pokestop the other side of the railway line, and where I haven't been in over a year!

Based on your scenario, I think you might have had one in your bag, and your buddy brought you 5, with the animation appearing some time later.

That makes sense about the buddy gifts.

I got 2 shiny Carvanahs yesterday. I would love a shiny Pikachu.

I cant get into the trainer battles. I was doing 25 per day last time but now I'm just meh about them.

@bellabelly I added you I'm StephVanjie on it.

Brilliant, thanks HighBrows and everyone else who's added me! Went for a wander earlier and discovered new gym I'd not spotted before. All this searching for gyms and pokestops is certainly helping my step count!

Any tips on finding a ghost Pokemon?
I’ve been stuck on the research for two days now, used 3 incense at different times of day but still no ghosts

Thanks to all those who coordinegged with me on Sunday - it really helps with the long, slow crawl to level 40! I've sent out a few more friend requests to people on this thread (I'm Woongy).

Fiddlersgreen, the only ones that have shown up for me recently have been halloweeny ones. I got a duskull to complete that stage. Just in an urban area.

Fiddlers, I think sableye are in 2* raids? That's a ghost type. I think I got one on incense eventually.
Got this hurrah. 87%.

I've seen banette raids too.

Hi everyone,

Woongy I have you as a friend, I'll PM you so I can better arrange to Co ordinate eggs with you if you'd like. I think we've been pogo friends awhile. Forgot that I posted my code on here.

Can someone help me please. My account is set up on my husbands phone, he goes out for a jog and when he comes home I open my account on my phone and reap all the rewards of his efforts and hatch a load of eggs.

The past week he's been going out as normal. App closed but adventure sync on. He'll come home after a good 10k run but my account is stuck on whatever it was before he left.

This has only started to happen since last week. Can I do anything (no, I'm not going jogging!)?

@bootsuit maybe he's running too fast now?! Over a certain speed miles dont register?!

Oh maybe that's why. I suppose he's got fitter now he's running more. Hmm do I sabotage his new fitness for my own selfish pokemon gain?! I'm 1.5 km off hatching a 10k egg which I haven't had in a long time.......

Is Deedeecupcake on here? Desperate to DM you about a gift I just received. Please drop me a message if you see this!

Is cookie1923 on here? We go best friends today if you open the gift you got from me. I'm out of eggs so do it when you're ready.

Is Popandcas on here?

A random question - we clearly haven't caught it - but what is the current hat on Pikachu?
Anyone else wish we could store and keep the cute special editions but feel like it's clogging up your Pokémon list. Also why are they rarely evolvable!!!

Pikachu has a rayquaza hat on at the mo’. Tomorrow it will switch to Lucario. It is annoying when they don’t evolve, I really couldn’t understand the flower bunneary as you can have all the variations of the flower eevie

Hehe, I keep one of each Pikachu, and just increase my storage. I've been doing well with the 5* raids lately too so will have to drop the coins sooner rather than later!

Yeah I like all these different hatted pikachu, I have them all including some old ones with witches hats. I wish they'd make them all evolvable too.

I save two in case they change them so they can be evolved. They used to, I have a detective raichu and a few others with hats.

I've been getting 3 hearts each for my top 20 every day so they should have best buddy medals in a few months.

I need new friends so if anyone is interested , I'm 339222028864. Thanks!

jboure the trainer code comes up as invalid

Anyone doing the Sinnott research, we can’t find a ground type anywhere any suggestions?
