    Today I evolved a Gyarados 1670CP and a Sandslash 1041CP and caught a Voltorb and Exeggcute ..... None of which I had.

    I've 102 and am level 25. My highest CP is a Lapras 1869CP. Not bad so far.

    What level was the original magikarp? My highest is 145, holding out for something higher before evolving

    I evolved a 190cp magikarp tonight to a 99% IV Gyarados of 1978cp. I'm happy with that :-)

    The moveset is more important. I had my 1700CP Blastoise ruined by a ****ty moveset. What moves did you get?

    Anyone else's game crash when they view grimer in the pokedex? Just grimer for some reason xD

    I'm tempted to buy another fiver worth of coins now so I can upgrade my bag and get more eggs. Goddamit Niantic/Nintendo will have me broke!

    Went out for a bit again today, took a few gyms too. One of them happened to be the guy I suspected of cheating with two accounts. Took his gym down grand, had it held for a good half hour or so. Next minute I see it's being taken back so I let it be, as I held another gym just a few mins away from that one. Two account guy took the gym and then began taking the other one. I went to go and see who it was trying to take it, so I went to the spot of the gym (small statue in an open green in a park). Saw nobody was there, despite it showing on my screen that it was being taken. Let it be and sat away from it, but still nobody within range of it. It was eventually taken over and two account guy immediately had 2 Pokemon in there within seconds of taking it over. Definitely think he's GPS spoofing now..he has Pokemon in 80% of gyms in my town... All 1k+ CP.

    148 and that was one of the first I caught.

    Ok I need help to make a decision. I'm at level 23, I have 160 coins. Should I buy a 2nd incubator or 2 lucky eggs?

    You'll get another lucky egg and incubator when you hit level 25 so it all depends on whether you want to level up quicker or have a better chance of catching a Pokemon you haven't caught yet.

    I've had it happen with two specific Pokemon, a golden and a Zubat. It stopped after a while.

    I'm level 17 now and have only seen one 500+ Pokemon in the wild so far, about three weeks ago. I have a few evolutions between 800 and 1000 but none higher. When or how should I expect to meet, hatch or evolve high CP mons?

    I'm not sure if you can carry more than nine eggs at a time but if you don't have nine incubators it would be pointless anyway. When you hatch an egg you get another one from a pokestop pretty much right away.

    Is it possible to change or upgrade a pokemon's moveset?

    No, beyond the potluck of evolving them.

    Would be a cool change if Niantic introduced TMs that you could pick up at pokestops.

    Give him one more chance to see if you can spot the person when they are taking a gym. If they are not there report them.

    Personally I don't mind botters who just go around collecting but if they are taking gyms from others they deserve to be banned

    Have seen the shadow for Electrobuzz a fair few times but never managed to find them. Finally hatched a 1183 from a 10k!


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 36,053 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Was having a crap morning with nothing spawning and stuff running away. Even started catching Pidgees and weedles again to get some XP. Then Chansey appeared :) Took six raspberries and a bunch of super balls but he went in the bag. Crap CP but 235 HP.

    Even better, I caught a Drowzee! Had to trespass a tiny bit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Rsaeire


    All 9 of my eggs hatched yesterday so I'm starting off anew. First new eggs are 2km (x1) and 10km (x1). Here's hoping the 10km gives me something good.

    Just wait til trading gets rolled into the app. You'll be inundated with begging offers from Dublin to please, please take the wiggly-fingered bar stewards off of our hands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,417 ✭✭✭Diemos


    Agreed, I transferred all my sub 1k Hypnos and I still have 9 of them!
    Amazed that anyone would get excited about a Drowsee. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭jamescd


    Yup I'm sitting on like 200 Drowzee candies at this stage (don't have enough pidgeys, weedles, rattatas yet for a mass evolution)

    What are the common types which are hard to get in Dublin? Are there many Ekans or did St. Patrick take care of them? I found a water Pokemon here in my town so will bring the kids to catch turtles and carp later.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,115 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    cant get much fire here, all the ekans are driven out. Not sure what else is common elsewhere, i cant get much eevees where I go.


    evolved a gyrados finally but his moves are terrible.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 36,053 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Like Jagger?

    No fire types where I live either. Despite the 3000 hectares of forest that burned down last week.

    Ediy: There seems to be only 11 fire types total in the game and I have one each of five of those. No wild charthings, ninetails, arcanine, magmar or rapidash yet.

    I caught a Pikachu on Foley St in Dublin one morning, but I pass there regularly at the same time and it has only appeared once

    Level 21 and "only" 2 10k eggs so far but both were Kabuto allowing me to evolve it so I'm not complaining

    Has anyone ever seen or caught a wild Chansey? I never see it mentioned

    I got one from a 10km egg. It is only 350cp but it has well over 300 hp which is good.

    All you guys crying out for electric Pokémon, I will pay you to take mine.

    I have caught 1,986 Pokémon total and my Voltorb's/Electrode's and Magnemite's/Magneton's make up over 26% of my total lifetime caught.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,139 ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    As I was getting the screenshots for that and uploading there was another Magnemite and Electrode on my screen :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,920 ✭✭✭cee_jay


    And where are all these Magnemites?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,083 ✭✭✭rustledjimmies


    At a guess: Location: Balboa Island, Newport Beach


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭jamescd


    No, I believe he said Malta before
