Magikarp maxed out to 156 at my trainer level so I'm guessing 1500cp gyarados.

According to sliphroad data average evolution is 11 times the CP of the Magikarp.
I guess it depends on the Battle Ratting IV?

Finally got this today threw 16 unsuccesful poke balls at zubat, this is gonna fun.

Zubats in particular are flappy little f ckers! They're at a different distance away than most others so you have to throw harder and "further" if that makes sense?

I hatched a vulpix! I'm so happy i finally have a vulpix

Pokestops and gyms have vanished for me in the past 30 mins.

Restart your game. If that doesn't work, restart your phone. Not sure why that solves it but it has for me a few times.

To the folks saying that there's been an update, can you clarify if you mean an app update that I'd need to download, or a code update on the server side? My app was last updated on Aug 10th (version 1.3.1, iOS).

Server side

AMGer · 21-08-2016 04:46PM

Not something people usually post about but I caught a 750CP Pidgeotto this morning, by far the best I had, even from evolutions.
Also caught a 680CP Eevee, also my best. And finally evolved a Nidoqueen which the IV calculator say is 97% perfect, so probably my best Pokemon!

Btw, anyone in Waterford, Ballytruckle around Garveys pub now seems to be a regular spot for Jynx if you need one.

Yeah but the candies could have been better spent on powering up one or more of your other pokemons. A Gyarados with Twister is not worth powering up, even with perfect 100% IV's. I'm sure you still have a couple of decent pokemon that could do with powering up. I certainly do, in fact I have way too many that could do with powering up and not enough stardust.

Anyway, since you've already done it there's no point arguing over it now. Hopefully you get lucky with the moveset instead

Guess what just hatched from a 2km egg a 139 cp magikarp with the same iV as the one i powered up still haven't evolved him yet though. Damn the irony:pac:

I saw one yesterday for the first time in all I've been playing, but that doesn't really answer the question...

whereabouts were you? Ive never seen a mr mime even in shadow!

IsMiseMyself · 21-08-2016 05:46PM

Lads, where is good for electric and fire pokemon in Dublin? I've hit a wall at 90 owned. I just keep seeing the same mons over and over, granted I've stuck to a fairly central route 'on my way'. I own a lot of water types as I live along the canal.

Kylemore, on the way to Aldi on the Long Mile Road.

sat on my couch!! castleknock. I just hit level 20 and used an incense coz i was using a lucky egg and up he popped. never seen one before either

chipfox · 21-08-2016 05:50PM

That's weird, I never saw one either until yesterday since I hit level 20. Have seen at least 5 in my nearby since....

Nice! Wouldn't mind that happening to me, its been quite a while since ive seen an unknown on my nearby list, probably about a week and a half ago a Muk was on the nearby list around the far side of merrion square heading towards stephens green but couldn't find it, and haven't seen it around there since either!

I never saw one until yesterday. Caught him and saw three more today.

Mr mime was doing a tour of kildare today

6th · 21-08-2016 06:24PM

I think Mr. Mime has been released into the wild cos I just catch one in my estate on the way back from the shop. Weak little thing but new to my deck.

105 now.

I caught one (the only one I ever had nearby/sightings) in the first four weeks of play. Saw two yesterday and caught one. Someone posted a few pages back that Niantic had increased the spawn rates of the regional Pokemon yesterday.

vickers209 · 21-08-2016 06:36PM

Just caught a mr mime while at home hes been showing up in nearby but never appeared till a few mins ago

jamescd · 21-08-2016 07:20PM

Caught my 2nd strongest ever Wild Pokemon an hour and a half ago, a 2131CP Vaporeon

It has 82% Perfect IV's too. I've already got a few Vaporeons, but I'm still well chuffed.

Best wild catch is still the 2300CP Snorlax I caught quite a while ago. Also caught a 741CP Eevee not long after that. Great day overall

Angron · 21-08-2016 07:29PM

That bug where gym Pokemon get stuck on 1HP is the greatest pain in the arse. Twice had battles end on time because a fecking Snorlax wouldn't just die.

Loomis · 21-08-2016 07:29PM

People are saying, expect to find high CP at higher levels; like 1000+ CP.
I'm level 22 and have never seen anything over 1000. Highest I've seen, and caught, was 878 Starmie. The only way I get 1000+ is through evolutions.
Am I missing something?

That's incredible! Not sure I've ever seen a Vaporeon over 2000CP. Where was it? And how tough? Strongest wild catch I've had is only 1150CP

JamboMac · 21-08-2016 07:32PM

Another 2k egg and another 140cp magikarp iV potential 97% but can't get accurate as pogo bag is down.

I was walking along the canal near the Ninth Lock Road in Clondalkin. Coordinates are 53.329074, -6.397877

I caught it on the 2nd throw (using Razz Berry and Ultra balls of course). I almost had a heart attack when it broke out on the 1st throw, but thankfully it didn't run

Rsaeire · 21-08-2016 08:05PM

I just evolved an Eevee and ended up with the below 97.8% IV Vaporeon

I'm level 26 and play Pokemon Go a lot more than I should, but those kind of catches are still incredibly rare. My eyes literally almost popped out when I saw the CP. It's just down to luck. I try to click on almost every Pokemon I come across to check out its CP and just happened to be lucky this time. I've ran into 2 or 3 other Vaporeons in the past, but the strongest one previously was only like 1100CP.

pickarooney · 21-08-2016 08:53PM

I saw a screenshot earlier of two Vaporeons side by side. I really need to go to that magic road. I've pretty much exhausted this city with 79 caught and about six more I can reasonably expect to evolve. 66 carp candies now. Heck of a way to go...
