Bless you. I hate thieves. I remember when PoGo first came out and dh took my phone for a walk.

A lad came up to him and asked him for the time, then tried to steal the phone. Dh socked him in the nose

ISaySteadyOn · 26/08/2022 18:46

Good on your DH! I wish I had his reflexes.

ignatiusjreilly · 26/08/2022 20:10

Sorry to hear that happened to you, ISaySteadyOn. I worry about that all the time when I'm out on a pokewalk.

I added you last week - I'm Misty. Thanks for the gifts!

RafaistheKingofClay · 26/08/2022 20:16

Bloody hell, @ISaySteadyOn. hope you are ok.

ISaySteadyOn · 26/08/2022 21:33

I'm fine, just not very steady atm. But I will be.

MsAwesomeDragon · 26/08/2022 22:20

Hi. I've just started playing Pokémon Go this week, so I don't really know what's going on. I've been playing ingress, which is another game by Niantic for years so I know where all the local pokestops and gyms are, and I have caught a few Pokémon but I'm really just doing stuff and stuff happens without me really understanding much 🤦

I've sent friend requests to quite a few people, I hope that's ok.
My code is 8348 1011 0109

BookShark · 26/08/2022 22:21

@ISaySteadyOn so sorry to hear that. I'm such a hypocrite about this stuff - tell DS not to walk around looking at his phone and then merrily ignore my own advice.

As long as you're okay, that's the main thing. Everything else can be replaced, even if it's an arse to fill in the paperwork. I have a similar DH to yours - he seems to actually enjoy filling in my tax return, so I just leave him to it!

Who else is looking forward to PoGo fest this Saturday?

Hoping to get some good Pokémon. Looks like the ones I need will be 5* raid bosses so will be purchasing some raid passes ready.

Hoping to find munna and some shiny Pokémon too

I’m so excited for Go Fest Finale today :)

I’ve only just discovered this thread. My kids wanted to play, and I’m now addicted and they now roll their eyes when I want to hunt/ raid.

Shinies I’m hoping for : Hitmontop, karrablast, shelmet, munna, combee, foongus.

Tip for today: Im setting a reminder to put a star piece on at 12 as combee and foongus have extra stardust when caught.

I’m L50 so if anyone needs help with xp, I’m happy for you to add me.

I’m ChyGwyn: 688053242206.

Good luck today!

Soubriquet · 27/08/2022 07:08

I have a shiny karrablast already Grin

ignatiusjreilly · 27/08/2022 07:09

@ISaySteadyOn I'm going to open your gift at 10am today for the start of the event. If you put a lucky egg on at 10am, you'll get 20,000 XP when I open the gift (instead of 10,000 if you don't have an egg on).

ISaySteadyOn · 27/08/2022 08:49

Oooh, thank you! I will do that. Can I start the egg at 9:50 and it will work or does it have to be at 10 AM sharp?

RafaistheKingofClay · 27/08/2022 09:25

You’ve found us @MsAwesomeDragon. I’ll send you a friend request in a minute.

SlakingOff · 27/08/2022 09:27

I went on discord then swiftly deleted it I cannot understand that app 🤣🤣🤣

ignatiusjreilly · 27/08/2022 09:33

Eggs last for 30 mins so 9.50 is fine. Although if you have a ticket for the event, you'll get triple XP for spinning stops from 10am so it might be worth holding off until 10. I'll wait a few mins after 10 before opening, to give you a chance to activate the egg.

When we hit ultra and then best friends, you'll get 100,000 and then 200,000 XP if you have an egg on, so I'll make sure to arrange it with you beforehand.

ignatiusjreilly · 27/08/2022 09:34

That's a shame, SlakingOff! I felt the same way at first - all the notifications were overwhelming but you can turn them off.

CornishGem1975 · 27/08/2022 09:38

Is everyone buying the ticket? I'm in two minds about it!

Soubriquet · 27/08/2022 09:38

SlakingOff · 27/08/2022 09:27

I went on discord then swiftly deleted it I cannot understand that app 🤣🤣🤣

Neither can I. I still have it just muted all notifications

ISaySteadyOn · 27/08/2022 09:54

@ignatiusjreilly , turns out I have no lucky eggs . Rats!

ignatiusjreilly · 27/08/2022 10:01

@ISaySteadyOn No worries, I won't open your gift yet then. Let me know when you've got an egg and we can rearrange.

ISaySteadyOn · 27/08/2022 10:32

I will.

Soubriquet · 27/08/2022 11:02

Caught no end of unown. Hopefully get the alphabet before the end of the day

pleased as punch to get an axew though

RafaistheKingofClay · 27/08/2022 11:31

I’m going to end up with 26 unown N.

finally got pheromosa after a billion failed attempts at remote raiding on pokegenie. Don’t know if it’s glitching but had 9 hosts leave and not give out invites.

How strange. Got mine on first attempt

RafaistheKingofClay · 27/08/2022 11:48

Dead easy to catch once I got into a raid.

Soubriquet · 27/08/2022 14:21

Success so far. Catching everything I need. Got a shiny sudowoodo, shiny unown, and a shiny pikachu so far
