    If babies are Shinys then so should their evolved forms..... Can't wait to see if it happens.... Walk off present eggs in hopes this happens


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 273 ✭✭Jfrost


    Elekid seems to be missing though?

    I’m torn. Was planning to potter around city center to fill up my bag and collect eggs (currently only 1 2km, hatched a lot last couple of days) But the egg event doesn’t start till tonight.........

    Guess I’ll just have to walk more over the weekend!

    Will be doing a bit of walking for the bulba event on Sunday so probably a good bit of double dipping with that going on, I don't want to buy incubators now just to clear out my existing 5 and 10k eggs but might need too to free up space for the 2ks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 863 ✭✭✭Rooy


    Tempted not to spin any stops today to help clear out eggs for tonight. Im sure Ninatic would furnish me with a few new 10k eggs today to encourage me to buy more incubators to clear them out.
    Due to the earlier daylight savings I think the event will start at 8 tonight rather than the usual 9.

    Yep, held off spinning all day and off to a raid now. Will spin after 8 if the event is live

    This is a fairly depressing read

    I'd hoped they would have paired back some of the crap from 2k's.

    Ouch! how many incubators you go through ?

    I did the following, scyther,baroach,wailmer,snorlax,Poochyena,Poochyena


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 863 ✭✭✭Rooy


    Could go thru a lot of incubators/money in this event as 10 days long with 1.3km walk per egg ,going to try to keep it at Unlimited+1 Super , i usually walk abut 8-10k a day so that will still be plenty of hatches , and there is none I particularly need


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    I saved a bunch of 10ks for this, one that I hatched gave me a Bagon. The Bagon itself was only 88%, but it gave me 64 candy which was pretty nice to have.

    Had amazing luck with my 10k hatches - 2 bagons, 1 larvitar, 2 dratinis, 1 ralts and a chimecho (new for dex) - the two bagons gave me 121 candies and allowed me to evolve a lvl35 wild bagon I found just yesterday :D (turned into a 3200+cp salamance :p )

    With that ralts I finally maxed out my gardevoir :)

    On the top of my head 6 or so used up with several others partially used; always rotate in the free one when possible. What I really want is to finally pick up a Snorlax, Chansey, Chimecho and Wynaut as I don't have them while I have a few others I'd hope for a 95%+ one such as Machop (got 180 candy waiting to evolve my second one etc.) which is why I'm going all out at the opportunity basically. Several other of the spawns such as Snorunt, Beldum, Bagon, Numel etc. could help with candy/later spawns (but I can always walk those out if needed; those four would be the only new spawns for my dex).

    I had x2 10ks on the boil.... I now have 128 additional Skarmory candy :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭AMGer


    I’ve done about 40ish eggs this morning and yesterday - no shiny (yet) - looks like they are very very rare.

    I was lucky enough not to get a Skarmory from my 10ks, though getting a Snorlax was fairly annoying too.

    yeah, watched some youtubers last night, tearing through super-incubators and no shinies. 1% seems to be number getting thrown around!!!

    so far for me today, 3 x togetic and 1 x tyrogue


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    I'm not expecting much from the eggs tbh, but I got 36k stardust from my 7 day catch, 3 x 10k eggs and a little bit of catching (with star piece).


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,375 CMod ✭✭✭✭Nody


    Well another walk; another set of egg hatches. Limited by the simple factor I was burning through eggs faster then I was getting replacement meaning I usually had 4 to 6 slots open but here's today's result:
    • 1x Lileep
    • 1x Smoochum
    • 1x Lotad
    • 1x Mantine
    • 2x Treecko
    • 2x Spheal
    • 1x Lickitung
    • 2x Azurill
    • 2x Cleffa
    • 1x Makuhita
    • 3x Tyrogue
    • 3x Wailmer
    • 1x Dratini
    • 1x Scyther
    • 1x Torchic
    • 1x Machop
    • 1x Wynaut
    • 1x Eevee
    • 1x Shellder
    • 1x Elekid
    • 1x Pichu
    Not exactly the most rewarding set of 'mons but I got my first shot at two legendary raids and won both getting a normal Lugia out of the two so overall happy.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,284 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Chicorita and Swinub and who cares type stuff all day, seeing a lot of Anorith around Dublin City and Dorset Street and Finglas this evening caught a good few.

    Hatched an Aron and got 50+ candy so finally got a Aggron, I am gonna go out early for the Bulba event seeing as the clock's go forward tonight.

    That was some community day, I reckon almost 250k in XP made.

    Good few shinies , my small fella even got back to back shiny bulbasaur's


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,375 CMod ✭✭✭✭Nody


    Ok, community day. Great chance to get some walking done but I ended up without any eggs at all for parts of it (had 25 pokestops turned in a row with no eggs...). Overall it ended up as a good day however between the double exp (saw no notice of that one or I'd popped eggs) along with two legendary raids (and one more Lugia 87% compared to my previous 79%) along with one special capture and in total 154 Bulbasaurs (5 shiny)...

    Anyway, tallied today's catch below:
    • 1x Wailmer
    • 1x Cleffa
    • 1x Igglybuff
    • 2x Togepi
    • 1x Corphish
    • 1x Chansey
    • 1x Ralts
    • 1x Beldum
    • 2x Slakoth
    • 1x Dratini
    • 1x Taillow
    • 1x Swinub
    • 1x Treecko
    • 2x Scyther
    • 1x Poochyena
    • 1x Smoochum
    • 1x Larvatar
    • 1x Mudkip
    • 2x Swablu
    • 2x Baltoy
    • 1x Snorunt
    • 1x Mareep
    • 1x Machop
    • 1x Torchich
    • 1x Mantine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,284 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Very few eggs anywhere got all my shiny bulba around O'connell bridge area ended up with 4 in total so have a shiny Venusaur, Ivysaur and two bulba, got 250 candy in total so two evolves one shiny one non shiny, best hatch was a tyrouge so nothing to write home about. The next day better be Eevee, maybe Leafeon and Glaceon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,110 ✭✭✭Thirdfox


    Next day will pribbly be squirtle or charmander.

    Got back to back shinies...twice!

    Overall got 13 shinies - am seriously considering transferring a few :D

    Evolved 3 venasaurs - frenzy plant might be a better move than solarbeam but I just can't bear to part with my mvp 100% solarbeam veny - loyalty matters!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Got 13 shinies, and am now 3.1m towards level 40.

    Got a 93% shiny so happy enough to evolve that one out; keeping two around for potential future uses and sent the low percentage once away as I'd never bother anyway.

    My Balbasaur Day
    NllzvzV.jpg

    Caught a Lugia and Jynx as well..... After shiny 8 I went to Tower Records and with 10 minutes left restarted and caught another one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭AMGer


    Much better shiny day today then Dratini - managed 9 Shiny Bulbasaur, should have been 10 though. First one I clicked on I backed out of so I could screen record it, bas***d despawned when I did :(

    I’m guessing it’ll be Charmander for April, Squirtle for May.

    Managed to pick up 6 shiny Bulbas and 1 100% Bulba, kinda funny with that one, it was posted in the group chat, so flew back around with the young fella, catching every bulba (and everything else) i seen on the way, got to where it was said to be, several of the local group around telling where it was, the young fella had it show up on his phone and got it, i start searching around and couldn't find it, did a lap around in search still no sign, checked through recent catches, couldnt see a bulba of 560cp so thought crap ive missed it! :eek: only after finishing a lugia raid while searching through catches to evolve the best and highest shiny before the event was over, do i spot this 560cp bulba about 50-60 mon down the recent catches and there he was! :P

    Great day for it in fairness, was a good few out in Limerick for it, good crowd finishing up the event down at a lugia raid :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,267 ✭✭✭mcgovern


    Got about 250 bulbasaur candy but no shinies.
    My brother who was walking beside me got 9...
    He also then got 2 shiny Lugia from 3 raids (and was only one from any of them to get a shiny).

    On Saturday we had our Mewtwo raid in Celbridge, 100% catch rate this time, with just over 20 trainers I think. First Mewtwo for a few of us (including me who had it run last time!).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 863 ✭✭✭Rooy


    Enjoyed the community day ,although didnt have the same excitement as the first two for me , im hoping they will come up with something around rarity/regionals/completing medals for next event rather than another starter/shiny combo ,although people seem very happy with current format.
    I would be happy to see a Ratta/Magicarp event to help complete those medals , but maybe wouldnt be too exciting to community as a whole!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 181 ✭✭AustinLostin


    Got my first ex raid pass for next Saturday, its bang in the middle of my brothers stag on the other side of the country so that's a bit of balls.
