Pokemon go

The Suir River quay in Waterford City is littered with water Pokemon. Guaranteed multiple Staryu, Goldeen, Magikarp. There's also a regular spot for Dratini.

You can get Tauros from the 5km egg in Europe

Well the game is meant to encourage exploration, if you could catch most mons fron your house or your desk then there wouldn't be any challenge or fun to it. I agree there needs to be more spawns in rural areas but I don't think it's unfair that you can catch lots of water pokemon along the quays when it makes perfect sense that that's where they'd be?

If it's meant to encourage exploration, it's executing it pretty poorly. You could explore half the island and find very little the way the game is at the minute.
I'm working in Smithfield, very close to the quays, but don't see the type nor frequency of Pokemon I saw yesterday. Presumably because Smithfield is that bit further from the city centre.
Where I'm living isn't rural, it's within Dublin, but there's pretty much nothing here. In the area, I don't mean while sitting on my couch. There's a park right beside the estate, with a lake, but there's very little there either, and none of the water Pokemon you'd expect unlike the quays in the city.

Increasing spawns in rural areas in line with what exists in populated areas would definitely make it fairer but I don't think reducing spawns in populated areas is necessarily needed. Lures are always going to be a good way to get pokemon because they make money for the devs

I don't think anyone suggested that.

Wouldn't it be just as fair if you could catch the same amount of pokemon by a rural quay too?

This tbh.
As someone else said, 'go to a densely populated area' seems to be more accurate.

They certainly could be hatched before the official release here, I got one in a 5k egg.

Voltorb spawn in Marlay Park. Caught about 5 of em

Caught a cp 1075 Victreebel the other day when I was almost home on the bus, very unexpected! Broke out about 6 times. And right after that a cp ??? Vaporean appeared but he escaped on the 3rd catch. An emotional rollercoaster but happier with the Victreebel, haven't seen one either in the gyms at home or in town.

Squirtel is a slippery little bast**d. I have hatched him once, but all the wild ones escape as soon as they jump out of the balls. Little feckers.

Have enough Duduos and goldeens to evolve. Yay

Where are all the ground-types at? I've caught a single Rhyhorn and Cubone so far, and that's it! I've also not found any geodudes, onyx or machops - where's Dublin's Mt Moon? :P

Dollymount? I've caught Rhyhorn and Cubone there, saw Geodude (I think) and Machop on nearby. There is Sandshrew too. Plenty of Cubone at the pond in St. Annes right beside Dollymount too, it's probably a Cubone nest at the moment. Onix I've only seen a shadow of, once, between Tara Street station and Trinity.

It's not a complete Mt Moon though, there's no Clefairy's.

Plenty of Cubones at St. Stehphen's Green. Caught enough Cubones to evolve into Marowak from there.

There used be loads of Machops in Marlay Park. It's mostly Voltorbs now, but I still caught a Machop there today.

Caught my Dugtrio, Onix and 2 Sandshrews at Bull Island a while ago. Seems to have a wide variety pokemon

Where's the Dratini spot?

So I hatched a Schyter (sp?) from a 10k egg. It's first move only has a strength of 3. Is it possible to make its base move stronger?

People get called hackers for no reason, I live withing 30 second walk of 3 gyms yet get accused of it, not hard to take **** over whenever once you live in the middle of everything
