Pokemon Go Mark III

Couple of mew's in Cork starting to appear too. Finally got azurill from 2k this morning, no shinies but happy getting that final baby.

Caught a ditto soon after, might have been more chuffed with that

Step 5/8 was the one I was sweating over. Thankfully managed to complete it this morning. Not in too much of a rush to get Mew now, I can enjoy the rest of the tasks a bit. I’ll still have it this week or next

5/8 is just trash collection until lucky; I'm much more annoyed with evolving the fish as I already got 2 max leveled Gyarados and really don't care to have to walk out a third one...

seen a post on reddit earlier, you don't need to get the field research stamps with 7 days in a row. You can skip a day and still get the next stamp filled.

Anyone catch a shiny murkrow yet ?

Well field research can be completed but not claimed on a given day and then claimed on a later day to get the stamp. Hence in practice you can have 3 days of stamps ready at any time to handle future days for when you can't get out and do them if you don't mind losing the reward bonuses due to no free slots.

I caught one today

Wow I've only got 51 magikarp candy right now, that's some serious walking and catching to do there now.

RobbingBandit

Mew is the gen 1 mythical, Celebi gen 2 and Jirachi and Deoxys gen 3 wonder how long before we see them added

Are any of the gym scanning sites still working?

I think they (Niantec) broke/stopped the interface to the servers for it to work but I'd happily be proven wrong.

Angron

Yeah, as far as I'm aware they aren't working right now.

The one plus side to chasing every Magikarp I ever saw for a year in the hopes that one would be shiny, I’m sitting on over 4000 Magikarp candy.


I went ahead anyway and completed the Special quest earlier this morning.

Angron

I'm on 236 Magikarp candy, so I'm not *that* badly off for it. It'll still take a while, but hopefully I'll get lucky with some decent spawns.

Latios and Latias are the next legendary bosses up.

I honestly wouldn’t mind a break from level 5 raids for a few weeks.

Angron

It would be nice, yeah, but I can't see Niantic being that accommodating cause that won't sell premium raid passes.

I see a lot of people working hard to get Mew , Im happy enough to take it in my stride , probably wont be another Special Research project for a while , Im at stage 5 , still waiting on Ditto , and another 4 Ghost types.

CraigM84

since friday ive picked up 6 ditto, but havent gotten to that stage in the special research yet, when i get there i can imagine i wont find any :P

Angron

Further on the Latios/Latias raids: "The Legendary Pokémon Latias will appear in Raid Battles across Europe and Asia, while Latios will appear in North America, South America, and Africa. On May 8, the Eon Pokémon will switch locations and will be available until June 5." So, that's the time frame we have to work with.

Nody

Also this is the final addition to the eggs hatched not listed earlier (though if added up I'm sure it will be lower as I may missed some common / rare once); used up 78 quick hatchers, 1 normal (miss clicks) and no idea how many unlimited (but guesstimating around 30 to 40) for around 260 eggs hatched in the end.

Annoying part being of the 4 ultra rare spawns I was missing I got 3 duplicates on 5 spawns (3 Wynauts, 2 Chansey)... Upside being I'm ignoring all but 10k eggs now as I got all other spawns out of them I guess.

Thirdfox

Got my mew today - cp1304 (87-91ivs) - luckily was with my wife so managed to get some ar shots of wife with the Mew.

Kanto dex complete - 151 in the dex.

359/365 overall

Wow, fair play to you, thats some amount of hatches, any shinies?

I think this could have been the worst smash and grab ever, too much stuff in eggs and shiney rates far too low.

Not a single one from eggs; did catch a shiny Lugia.

Pokemon in raids have changed up again. From what I've read:

Tier 1 - Swablu, Shuppet, Magikarp, Duskull, Snorunt.
Tier 2 - Mawile, Sneasel, Misdreavus, Sableye.
Tier 3 - Machamp, Granbull, Pinsir, Jynx, Piloswine, Gengar.
Tier 4 - Tyranitar, Houndoom, Walrein, Aggron, Absol.

Wouldn't mind a good attack houndoom.


Anyone struggling with great throws, recommend 'Mr Mime' or if your lucky enough to find one 'Weepinbell', throwing straight red balls and its easy enough to land 3 or 4 in a row before they run (but you still get the credit).

Nody

Completed first Latias raid with 8; easy win but they got the small catch circle and bounce around a whole lot (up/down and then attack circles making sure thrown balls counts as missed while being far back) making them much harder to land balls by comparison to Lugia which was close to impossible to miss. Will get them over time I'm sure but were you'd easily be 95%+ hit rate with Lugia I'd guess 70%+ on these guys.

AMGer

Latias with Outrage - R.I.P.

Howdy, do anyone know if there is a what’s app raiding group? Love to get in on the action, I’m lvl 31 and can’t take down and legends solo! Help!

What area are you in? There are no 'official' groups, just local ones.

I'm hoping I might finally get a decent Sneasel, Misdreavus, or Duskull though I'm not expecting their gen 4 evolutions to be that great.

Anyone else enjoy seeing someone battle a well stocked gym you're in, spending at least 5 minutes beating everyone twice and then remotely golden razzing it back up to 10,000 CP+?
It's my inner child.

I do love doing that myself!!


Was in the US 2 days ago so got to have a 3 Lugia raids before 3pm there then got a final Lugia raid with at least 25 others (all physically present) at 3,40pm before walking with a dozen of them to get our first Latios hatching at 4,06pm. (Change happened at 3pm there)
15 ppl there at hatch and so many spoofers that between the 15 we were spread amongst 3 separate groups of 20!

Enroute to 1st Latios we saw 2 more eggs so I popped a lucky egg and got all 3 raids within the 30 mins. Got in another before having to leave for airport.
Caught 1 out of 4, it moves around a lot. Reminds me of Moltres (I think!)

Haven’t got myself to a Latias raid yet, hope to get a chance after the weekend (working)


Regarding the quests Im on the Ditto level, I can see myself being here for a while! Don’t let me down Go+!!!
Prob won’t finish the Field Research chain until next week either.



362/368 (still to ‘see’ Wynaut, Latias and Mew)

Anyone experienced that drift was reduced by using incense? Drifted nearly 2km in two hours (usually I never drift at home!) then used incense and the drift halted.

Angron

Can't say I've ever noticed that.

Went in to town for a bit earlier, only thing of note was hatching another Chimecho. Did see a Latias raid, but not enough players around as usual. Still, gonna head up to Dublin on Saturday if the weather is decent, so hopefully I'll get a few raids in, as well as find a few more Karp for the Mew quest.

Thirdfox

For Latias - it can be done with 5 players (even semi-casual ones) - we did one with 5 and beat it with 51 seconds on the clock.

With 4 people you need to bring dragons and only dragons (even if it has dragon claw/outrage). Max revive your first team and go with them again (you might need to do round 3 depending on the strength of everyone's teams).

It has been done with 3 people also (even dragon breath/outrage moveset) - but that's pretty much 6 maxed dragons - might be easier with a weather boost however.

Dragons are key against Latias - Ttar (dark), Mewtwo (ghost) come a distant second in terms of dps. A level 27 dragon tail/outrage Rayquaza roughly outputs the same damage as a level 40 shadowball Mewtwo.

Currently I'm 3/3 for Latias - I expect that number to fall as raids continue - one final tip - it's so small that sometimes you can throw your curveball over the pokemon when it's in its middle position.

syboit

Just cracked my 7 day field research package, xp+dust guaranteed, extra reward was random , mine was 20 pokeballs!

Not sure if the encountered mon can flee, but pinap+ultra , got it on third try. 96% but level 15, 1393cp.

Angron

I missed the first day of the 7 day thing, so I won't be hitting my Moltres until the 6th. Hope I get a good one.

I’m definitely guilty of that, missed repeatedly over its head or under it as it rose up.

RobbingBandit

Is that park pokemon message a worldwide blanket one, I never see anything new or strange in my local ones when it pops up every so often.

Caught a ditto today
I'm on step 4/8 in the Special

You can check tge silph road world atlas to see what nests are near you - nests change every 2 weeks on thursday (my local houndour nest changed to pidgey(!) And pinsir became chikorita)

Someone on reddit threw over thirty normal balls at it and it didn't run away, so it's PROBABLY a 100% catch rate, assuming you don't run out of balls.

I was delighted to get it as it was the one legendary I was missing. Now I'm just walking the fins off a Gyarados to get Mew.

Consensus in a couple of city FB groups I’m in is that it’s 0% flee rate.

In fact it seems that all encounter pokemon can't flee...I've not had any run on me anyway (and in fact caught a 100% eevee from one encounter) I've stopped razzberrying them now - still haven't had one run.

Angron

Yeah, I've never had one run either, best I've gotten was a 98% Numel though.
