Pokemon Go: Best locations in Dublin for rare pokemon

brownej3

So seing as Pokemon Go has become so massive I thought it might be a good idea to try and get a list going of where people have come across some rare enough pokemon!

No tips or tricks to be posted here please they can be found elsewhere fairly easily.

I'll start off by saying ive found:

1. Onyx along the Whotechurch Road behind Marlay park.
2. Plenty of Hitmonchan in Marlay park
3. A Rhyhorn also was nearby in Marlay but for the life of me couldnt hunt it down

Be good to know whats out there and where. Happy hunting folks and remember, always be aware of your surroundings, never play and drive!!

Great idea!

I've seen plenty of Eevee out by the petrol station at the airport.

I have caught about 4+ Pikachu's now in Islandbridge.



Here exactly.

Pokemon-map.com is also worth a look.

There's constantly Magmar's and Jynx's in merrion square.

If you haven't already google pokevision. I used it in town today and it didn't fail me once. |It shows you what pokemon are where and for how long, real time.

Onyx nest in Deerpark. ) Has quite a wild selection when people are catching, saw Dragonite twice, it ran away... ( Eeves also spawn fairly often, maybe 20% of the time somewhere around the grounds you'll see one.

Oh yes, Exeggcute nest in Killiney Hill Park

Paularius

Squirtles spawn quite often in the millennium park beside the blanchardstown shopping centre in Dublin 15

we had a pretty active pikachu nest near Shankill beach but it's changed to stupid Ekhans now. Anyone on the south side with any nest tips?

I'm particularly after snorlax!

I've heard that the hell fire club is a nest but I didn't hear what pokemon are there. I caught a dratini in marlay park beside the pond at about 8/9am the other day as well

there's an onyx nest on Killiney hill. 5-6 encountered on a walk about.

Someone told me there is a rare one in dun laoghaire, find the pier, walk to the end and keep walking with your phone in your hand 😄

How do you find out where nests are on Pokemon go?

Is Pikachu still available in Island Bridge? I ask as I've noticed that some Pokémon have changed locations over the weeks.

Also, along the quays is a great place to catch water-type Pokémon, e.g. Magikarp, Staryu, Poliwag etc, and hit loads of Pokéstops at the same time.

havent spotted a magmar there in days, must be unlucky.

Deerpark is also a hotspot for Doduo.

We went to Dun Laoghaire pier last night for a walk, and owing partly to the fact that people had lure modules set up all over the place I got loads of Pokemon...I'm level 16, picked up tons of Magikarp, Tentacool, Psyducks, and Shellders as you'd expect. I also got a couple Ponyta, a Squirtle, a Cubone, Growlithe, Eggsecute, Jigglypuff and Dratini.
Not sure if the radar is actually correct anymore, but if it is a Dragonair was around as well so it may be a nest for them.

donegan246

Anyone know off a hot spot around balbriggan or near by for good type pokemon

Beobe

I found Pikatchu arround Tesco in Clare Hall but I was driving and I didn't manage to catch it.. damn.. ^_^

Well dunlaoghaire East pier is a mecca for Pokemon Go there are 3 pokestops near the bandstand and you get em without moving -the fans gather and use lots of Lure Modules - lots of water pokemon and a few Dratinis nowand then

Notorious

Marley Pk in Rathfarnham seems to have a lot of Voltorb and a few Machop too.

I went to DL pier last night for a stroll. 3 Lures by the bandstand. Lots of players about the place. Worth it to walk to the end and back (for a bit of exercise like!).
I used incense and a lucky egg and went from Level 13 to 15 in about an hour.
If I recall correctly I got -

Seel ++
Kabuto
Goldeen ++
Tentacool ++
Horsea ++
Shelder
Krabby
Draitini
Geodude
Staryu
Ekans
Exeggcute
Onix
and Seadra

on the way back to the road I spotted a 705 Seaking but missed out. Also saw a Celfairy but it bolted.

Does anybody know about any pokemon nests in Swords ?

normanoffside

I came across a nest of rare Pokemon just behind the old Farmhouse pub off Monkstown farm Rd. There are also several Pokemon to be found in the park at the Soldiers and Sailor field off Monkstown avenue.

If you walk up and down the banks of the river dodder by Clonskeagh (start at the bridge by Clonskeagh House which its self is also conveniently a gym with free wifi), there are a load of Dratine and Dragonair. Caught my first Dragonair there when I was only level 5 and have just kept going back. For me it usually been between 7pm to 10pm but if your going then take a friend as its dark along the river. Happy hunting

CrazyAce

Also guys and Girls, UCD, its amazing, ton of pokestops, tone of pokemon including water pokemon all around the lake, a few gyms an for PrincessHadIt, everything on your list bar Chansey but for that the grounds of Saint John of Gods Hospital in Stillorgan during the day

uToxicCake

I caught 3 Onixs in St Stephen's Green yesterday. Try that!

Tw15t3dV3n0m

Try along the seafront on clontarf. Loads of rare pokemon such as magmar, pinsir, scyther, etc spawn along there

Blackrock is great for Pikachus and any other rare electric or water type Pokemon. Defiantly a recommended place to go!
