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

[DoctorTwo]

Ooh look! A shiny new thread! Hello everybody.

Woo hoo! Level 40 on my main. Thanks to all of you for your help.

Now to start nominating stops :)

@feesh - Was it you that was waiting to have another go at the test to start reviewing/nominating etc?

Debstonmon2 is about to level up with ajaed4 , MrsDarthMackem, Jimona19, Grebothecat, Emajo37 - pretty sure at least a couple of you are on here, let me know if you want to co ordinegg. I was thinking of triggering tomorrow morning if that suits.

Yay I have just done the last rocket leader and completed the special timed research!
I might calm down a bit now as the only remaining research tasks I have are to do 4 trades... One day (when I find someone local up for it or I get a second phone!!! ;-)

Well done jillandhersprite! I've got my radar on but only had the meowth balloon today. But on DH's account, managed to beat Giovanni and catch Suicine on the first try which felt very good indeed.

I'm ajaed4 and happy to coordinate but am working tomorrow.... I'm usually around in the evenings once the kids are in bed though. But if that's not convenient then don't wait for me!!!

@bellabelly there's a player local to me who is level 40 twenty times over on his main account. I'll ask him how many hundos he has. It'll be more than four!
He has about six other accounts too.

@cudbywestrangers OK, I will try to remember to leave you for another time. It's only going up to Great so not as much XP as Ultra!
Can I just say that I have finally beaten one of the Team Leaders?! It was Arlo and I finally got past him, pretty sure it was a line up that I used before and failed. Maybe they make it a bit easier on the last day. Obviously not going to manage to beat four more leaders before tonight but I don't care, honour is satisfied!

@BaronessBomburst, I know a local player a bit like that. I still get soooo excited just to get a three star or a shiny.

What’s a hundo?

A 100% Pokémon - with 4 stars.
A shundo is a shiny 100%.

Raid invites are live for level 40 players!

I have 50 something hundos, mostly useless mons but I do love my perfect Machamp & Scizor. My DS got a hundo shiny Moltres last time they were in raids which I covet. My only Shundo is a Treecko from Community Day.

I heard the term Shlundo as well - a shiny, lucky hundo!

I hope that they roll out the raid invites to us lower level players soon.

I found this and thought it was helpful niantic.helpshift.com/a/pokemon-go/?s=finding-evolving-hatching&f=searching-filtering-your-pokemon-inventory&l=en&p=web

To find all your hundo pokemon type 4* in the search area of your pokemon finder!

I got invited to a remote raid earlier but missed it! I don't have any remote raid passes anyway. Think I'll have to get some as I would have loved to join.

Thank you.

I have 1 😂

I'm shocked I have 14

I've got 12. I have a dragonite I've maxed out which is working out well in the battle league at the moment but the rest are meh.
One is an evee so I'm trying to think how best to evolve it.

Oh I finally beat giovanni with an ampharos of all things.

Well done, @SuperLoudPoppingAction - bet that felt good. I think ampharos looks so cute - I've seen a couple but never caught one. Good to know that they're rock hard as well.
I managed to beat Cliff on DH's account just now. Could have knocked me over with a feather, I don't think I've ever beaten him on my own account.

Beware of the Raid Invite.
It's still a bit buggy.

A friend invited me to a 5* raid. All looked promising, but it froze for those battling on site though I continued battling. As it fainted, however, mine froze and I could do absolutely nothing apart from lose PoGo down and lost any chance catching it. I had to use (and lose) a Remote Raid Pass plus 9 Revives/Potions for nothing.

i'll wait until it's been sorted out before trying again.

I'd probably make a hundo Eevee a leafeon. Or hold out for the sylveon, which should appear at some point.
