Even doing that it didn't work for me. It's not foolproof.

Geodude is having a laugh with me. Despawned twice and then fled before I finally caught him.

Currently at 99 in the pokedex, with enough candies for another 3 new evolves, nearly enough for 3 more new ones after that. Hopefully have them by the weekend. I expect to be 50% towards level 23 by the end of the week.......Current highest is a 1605 Vaporeon but hope to get a better Exeggutor tomorrow (mass evolve planned) Still none of the 'big names' in my pokedex however.

....after that I can sense it getting very grindy. Cant see myself adding too many new additions too often after that. (Unless my 10km eggs start to give me the sought after Lapras, Snorlax or another Kabuto for candy)

I got like that at the exact same point. I'm a little bit off level 26 and have 105 in the deck.

I've got plans to go after some ones I don't have. Also, reading this thread has shown me new ways to play better and have more fun.

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?

Caught my first 1000+ today, but it was a Golbat. I'm level 20. Highest find by a lot though. Found a Pigeot at 700 before. High CP are generally rare I think

vickers209 · 22-08-2016 01:04AM

Anyone spot a mew or catch one?

JamboMac · 22-08-2016 01:14AM

So evolved my magikarp 152cp into 1632 Gary the garyados with bite and hydropump as move set.:)

fatknacker · 22-08-2016 02:00AM

Got my 2nd 10k egg!
Finally

fatknacker · 22-08-2016 02:06AM

Goldeen looks like Angelina Jolene and also have the Jolene song in my head when I see it.

Oddly enough I evolved goldeen yesterday and have that song stuck in my head. Didn't hear it on radio or anything. Couldn't figure out why was in my head either.

pickarooney · 22-08-2016 06:37AM

Finally evolved paras. I felt nothing. Pointless set of Pokemons.

Edit: then immediately found a parasect in the wild.

Saw my first Snorlax shadow, from the bus. One day...

Couple of minor changes I noted:

the sightings list empties itself every couple of minutes and then refills as it scans. It might be better if it scanned in the background and replaced them immediately.

Eggs in the incubator no longer go to the top o the list but retain their original position. This could mean the egg's position is actually relevant (pokedex number?)

Hatched a 330CP pidgee. Big baby.

Rainman16 · 22-08-2016 08:38AM

I made a awful mistake yesterday. I bought the egg incubator with my gym coins, thinking that it was going to be an eternal incubator. I didn't read the description that it was only a 3 use incubator.

I just wasted 150 coins that I could have used on lucky eggs.

Sorry the 19 word description was too long. :pac:

Tenger · 22-08-2016 09:47AM

Ah thats not too bad, save it for 10km eggs. Use the unlimited one on 2km

mighty magpie · 22-08-2016 10:23AM

Seen an article on twitter yesterday about the spawn rates of the region-specific pokemon. The rumour is that it they have increased, more and more people catching them or seeing them in their nearby. Few comments on here seem to back that up.

username?! · 22-08-2016 10:26AM

I've completely stopped playing. Just lost all interest with the same mon's coming up constantly. Good luck to the rest of you though, maybe I'll pick it up again some time in the future.

Mr. Manager · 22-08-2016 10:27AM

Can anyone confirm if you can hatch a Taurus from Europe? A friend of mine here got a Taurus while playing.

He was watching US Netflix on his phone prior to playing so thinks that might the reason why but I wanted to know if you could still hatch the US/Asian specific ones

Joeseph Balls · 22-08-2016 10:44AM

Getting 'GPS signal not found' since yesterday

With the rampant spoofing and botting coupled with the lack of communication from Niantic until I hatch a region exclusive except for Mr. Mime in Europe I won't believe you can without cheating.

There are a small percentage who say you can but how are we supposed to know they didn't cheat? The Silph Road did a study of 7,000 egg hatches and not 1 was a region exclusive. It's not a definitive study but it's the side of the fence I come down on.

I've read about people who did it in the early stages of the game but haven't seen anyone mention it recently, so it may be something that was removed

On the off chance this helps, make sure you have your wifi enabled, even if it's not connected to any network, I had serious issues getting the GPS to work at all, until I did that.

UP to lv 24 now myself, have two 2,000+ pokes, a snorlax and Garyados, it's becoming an awful grind mind, but trying to now turn my attention to Gyms a bit more, and getting friends out to play with me to nab a few in the evenings, to help them lv up and get all of us some coinage. It really is far better to play with friends than alone, helps break up the monotony if it's a bad day with no rares showing up.

992CP Dragonaire shows up last night, two friends catch a lower cp version on their 1st balls, 20 ultra balls and 30 great balls later and I still don't have it, knocked my friends phone out of his hand by accident in frustration at one point, when I swung my arm complaining :pac:

Finally got the hoor anyway!

On an asside, anyone else on here playing in Limerick, we have a serious Drowse infestation.. I have about 400 Drowsea candy at the minute, and after my last lucky egg evolution Blitz, ended up with 11, yeah 11 Hypnos over 1,100 CP, I transfer any Drowse under 650 CP at this stage, the hoors are seriously clogging up my slots.

I have also never, ever seen a charmander or bulbasaur in the wild, but have 70+ Squirtle candy, what gives Niantic??

silvervixen84 · 22-08-2016 11:28AM

London is Drowsie City too, I have an army of Hypnos at this stage. Also have an army of Jynx too, can't even evolve her.

Caught loads of Rhyhorns yesterday at Hampstead Heath, nearly have enough to evolve one. Also, I finally caught enough Eevees to evolve my second one, so now have a Flareon. Just need a Jolteon.

Have 2 10k eggs on the go at the moment so hopefully I'll get something fun from them. Have been pretty lucky so far.

Yeah, I have about 180 Jynx candy, if I ever get one from a 10k egg, I'll probably kill someone.

Brilliant IV app that isn't against Niantic TOS. Android only for the moment. My Flareon and Vapoureon are >90!

It's released on Github by the developer and has a subreddit. Some people may want to know that the 2.1.0 version has the ability to read your screen and communicate information back to the developer. The 2.0.0 version doesn't and in the future there will be concurrent versions, one that has internet permissions and one that doesn't for the security conscious.

silvervixen84 · 22-08-2016 12:02PM

I feel like it's Groundhog Day. Had the phone beside me at my desk, saw a familiar shadow on the sightings, galloped out of the office for 5 minutes and caught myself Mr Mime!

Yeah I was wondering I never needed to adjust the level bar. Great little app though

Thanks for that! I wanted a quick alternative to PoGobag in case I ended up banned. Looks good and is very easy to use

SpaceCowb0y · 22-08-2016 12:45PM

There is a Charmander at the same spot at around 8:30ish on my journey to work each morning. If i get there on time he's usually there, so far the highest CP is 346 but his IV is 13% :eek:

0 attack
3 Defence
3 Stamina

Is that a joke haha? I mean can a pokemon's IV change once evolved or is that his lot in life! Destined to be a runt?

I've nearly enough candies to evolve one to a Charmeleon though so should i just hold off in hopes a decent one eventually spawns there? The next highest i have is a 320CP with 37% IV

2 Attack
11 Defence
4 Stamina

Still pretty useless? FFS Charmander:rolleyes:
