Pokemon Go Thread #29: Are Friends Manectric? Are they?

[DoctorTwo]

Ooh look! A shiny new thread! Hello everybody.

Just wondering who's getting a ticket for Pokemon Go Fest?

I think £14.99 is too much to pay for a ticket.

I think that too @PanamaPattie but i can't help but find myself extremely tempted also

I'm on a budget so don't ever spend anything on games!
Whoever was asking about Jynx on the earlier page - I know its a long time to wait but she was one of the Ice types that appeared lots at Christmas time...
I have also been saving up evolves - I reckon I have 25, and 20 gifts ready for sending which I think should net me 50,000 and 10,000 points if I put an egg on at 6pm. Am hoping no one interupts me as they are all things where you kind of have to sit and wait a bit for the animation to finish so I reckon it will take me the full half an hour!

Ooh bella hopefully when jynx comes back you’ll be able to hatch the pre-evolved version too

Ooh, that's good to know! Thanks, I will try to be patient for Christmas time...
I've spent way too much time clearing out useless Pokémon duplicates and freeing up space. For some reason I seem to hoard 90% of my catches...
I have bought a ticket for Go Fest. I figured that I'm not likely to ever go to it in person so take the opportunity to be part of it this year as a virtual event. Also I am fairly new to the game and really enjoying it. As a hobby it's a lot cheaper than lots of other things.

Would you evolve a graveler rock & electric or graveler rock/ground?

I'm ready for the 6pm lucky egg gift opening!

I've just got Pokémon Go working on my new phone. Not only is it much faster and doesn't crash, but I can see far further on the map... I could see 4 gyms before, and now I can see 13!!

Wow, that's a big difference, @ignatiusjreilly!
Just logging in now, will stick an egg on straight away.

Just got there at 5.59 phew!!

Apologies to those who I am levelling up with. Just got caught in traffic! Its 6.15pm so hopefully you all still have yr lucky eggs on. Going in now...cant be doing with all these flappy zubats though!

Hope the special hour is going well. I didn't actually look and see what my points were before I started (doh!) But it feels like I'm much further on and I think I might complete it quicker than the previous one!!!
I know it gets harder as you go up because the points requirements jump so much but I am wondering how far I can get by the 1 year mark in October - and will level 40 be possible by the end of the year!!! X

Thanks all, I jumped up to Level 36, thanks to all the extra XP. Didn't manage to do much evolving due to teatime but I have got a few more crossed off list. Still chasing that Gold Johto medal for the research...

First time I've tried saving things up to spend the whole hour evolving but made almost 250K XP from that and now my pokemon on storage finally has space again! 15 weedles evolved was my biggest number of the same type but I had so much candy to get rid of. Also had time to set the magnetic lure so now have my probass and magnezone.

Today is my PoGo 4th birthday! My desperate pleas for help on how to catch just came up on my FB memories I remember being thrilled when I caught my first Squirtle.

Pants! I forgot it was zubat hour, I wanted a shiny!
jill it’s take me less than a year to get to level 40 although I’m willing to admit I probably I play too much...

That was great up, and thanks to those I became best friends with.

I didn't get a shiny zubat which I'm sad about, but next time!

Ps if anyone got a shiny please post a photo

I caught this one last year.

It's much nicer evolved into shiny Crobat

Lovely! Next time.

Ooh that’s pretty.

I caught a shiny zubat last night. I nearly didn't bother tapping on it as I find them so annoying to catch!

@chunkyrun only just seen your question about the gravellers. What did you decide in the end? Both types are pretty useful.

And I got another "hundo" today - a polliwag. I wonder what the world record for 4*s is... I'm on three now...
