This is literally exactly what happened me except I used two ultra balls aswell and mine was 893

I have a cp419 Eevee take 4 great and 8 red balls and 4 rasberrys before I nabbed him, and there I had a fight with. 336cp pikacho take 8 red balls and 6 reaver eyes and he ran

Is it getting harder to nab them?

This, for me, is the best part of the game. Making it a real lottery as to whether you catch a worthwhile Pokemon means you get such a sense o satisfaction from it when it goes in. I play with the two kids and we get one catch each and if it escapes the next one has a go.

I've twelve Pokemon that I will never catch again so never have the situation of throwing away balls at caterpie or rattatas. I'm lucky enough to have a 20 pokestop loop a few km away so can always nip out at night and stock up.

I evolved a 425Cp Eevie earlier an only got a 850 CP Jolteon. How are people getting the 1500 ones? Went to the gym with my three super Eevie and a few more 800 mons and got absolutely annihilated by a Snorlax. He didn't even go red.

Seriously if you're on Android go back to version 0.29.2. I did today and it's gotten easier to catch them. Caught a 1067 CP Venomoth with a single great Ball and razz berry using a curve throw. Caught several 300 - 600 CP Pokemon with 1 to 2 balls either Great or Poke and no berries too. I also found today the only Pokemon requiring more than 2 balls where Weedle's, Pidgey's, Rattata's or Spearow's (didn't come across any Zubat's).

Yesterday I wasted 90 Ultra/Great/Poke Balls on around 15 Pokemon and failed to catch a 1362 CP Weezing with several berries and ultra balls.

I was playing this earlier and also booking movie tickets at the same time. Let's just say that didn't end well.

I ended up booking tickets for Finding Dory, instead of Jason Bourne

Was too busy catching a Rattata to notice I selected the wrong film. Had to pay again to book the right fecking film.

The higher CP your Eevee is, the higher your evolution will be. I had a similar CP Eevee that I evolved into a Vaporeon who was then about 1000 CP. I then powered it up to 1785 CP but that took thousands of stardust! Also, your trainer level determines the CP ceiling of your Pokemon, i.e. I was stuck at approx 1705 CP at lv20 for my Vaporeon but could then hit 1785 when I hit lv21.

Jolteon seems to be the lowest CP evolution of Eevee. The Eevee evolves can be powered up quite a few times before they max, so 1500 is definitely possible.

If you go to pokefind it has a really evolve calculator. Let it know the Pokemon, current CP and it predicts min, max, and mean CP of the evolution. The mean is pretty accurate

JaMarcusHustle · 02-08-2016 08:50PM

Evolved an 800+ Eevie into a 2200+ Vaporeon today. Have 4 2000+ Vaporeons now

An egg finished incubating today and I got Eggsecute. Nice

OwaynOTT · 02-08-2016 09:29PM

I've hatched 3 5k eggs and got meowth each time and each time with a fairly average cp. stupidly wasted stardust and candies on the first fecker.

I was chasing this guy for days and then I finally caught one then hatched one within an hour.

Now all the magikarp have dried up before I got round to catching one. Zounds!

02-08-2016 09:44PM

I met an eggsecutor earlier when taking over the gym here
Unluckily for him I had flareon but ... you know

It was cool
8.1/10 on an egg at the moment, I hope it's something different

thefisherbuy · 02-08-2016 10:01PM

Just wondering,

Will Niantec Ever put more pokestops in Villages / Towns ? The local town has only 2 pokestops and thats 4km away and then there's no other towns etc nearby.. Kinda annoying. And how do they determine what should be a Pokestop?

Subcomandante Marcos · 02-08-2016 10:06PM

There's a Seadra nearby me, walked around for 5 minutes trying to find the fecker but no luck, gutted.

Never mind, found him! CP 842!

blue team took back the gym. With a flareon, volteon, and vaporeon.
Grrr
:mad:
Totally showing off

mohawk · 02-08-2016 10:30PM

Back from my walk got a Voltorb and Abra. Yay

I have only gotten 2 Eevees ever!! Where are they hiding? You guys seem to be getting loads of them.

Subcomandante Marcos · 02-08-2016 10:32PM

Boosted Seadra to 911, he has an IV of 27/30 for Att/Def and 11/15 for stamina. Beast.

02-08-2016 10:37PM

Greystones is crawling with Eevees! I left the app on for half an hour after I got in and my avatar was doing sprints. Walked an extra 400m on my 5km egg while just watching TV. Seems to have stopped now!

You can put in a request for a pokestop or gym.
Iv seen new gyms pop up I'm my area citywest.
I'm on mobile so can't link you at the moment.

Okay they seem to be on a pause at the moment but for future reference

Here is the link for requests

Where I am in Waterford is quiet enough for Eevee aswell, was in Mitchelstown last weekend and caught loads of them. They seem more common in town centres rather then suburbs.

I still need a Bulbasaur, haven't seen a single one yet.

FYI for anyone in Waterford, down by the Marina Hotel, seems like a Dratini nest

To be honest. There is no holding gym's. Unless there is 3 or 4 1200+ in a gym to ward off lower players. So the best you can put in while leaving high fighters to take others before your taken out is all we can do.

02-08-2016 10:49PM

Put in your second highest and keep beating it to raise prestige I suppose

chevron · 02-08-2016 10:50PM

Never thought raticates was any good until today... He is super effective against hypno.

Made it an easier win for me.
