    Can get even more evolves done now with the new animation.

    Evolve/animation is taking as long as it ever did for me...am I missing something?

    Have two Growlithes and enough candies to evolve one. First is 562cp with 91 IV, second is 728cp with 80 IV. Which should I evolve?

    0m registered over lunchtime . I managed 1.2 km last night when my avatar spazzed out an went for a jog. **** this piece of **** of a game, I'd be better off cheating seeing as I'm getting punished anyway. Niantic are a complete joke of a company. Hopefully whoever makes the next AR game won't make such an unmerciful balls of it.

    Probably incorrect to ask this, but is anyone spoofing on iOs most recent update? I can't seem to get more 'mon and I'm out in the country. Just some info would be good? Google is not very helpful

    If you've updated the app, you should see the evolve animation come down from about 25 secs to 20 secs.

    Yeah some peoples phones have it at 17.5 seconds now.

    Ah ok thanks, I probably wouldn't notice 5secs difference. Have updated it though.

    Did some lunch evolves. Charizard wing attack/flamethrower. Low cp, needs so many candies.

    Blastoise middling movesets for defence but nearly 2k (bite/flash cannon), will do as a trophy.

    Victreebel 100% IV missed solar beam damn! Has second best attack set but meh. He is all about solar beam

    Another mudshot/submission poliwrath. ****

    Got nidoking with nearly 2k cp, ****e moves.

    Definitely the 728cp with 80 IV, marginal difference in IV but there would be around 350 CP difference in Arcanine

    Just lasted 24 hours in a gym for the first time ever with my Tentacruel, delighted! Best reaction was from my 5 year old when he got up in the morning and checked my phone and realised Tentacruel was still in the gym, he was jumping up and down cheering :pac: very cute indeed.

    Caught a Charmander for the first time in the wild, in my mother-in-law's living room! Must be some weird spawn point near there cos the previous week I caught Grimer and Kabuto while I was sitting there having a cuppa!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭Duff


    Yeah, gyms are definitely easier to stay in now. I'm currently in 7 and have been in 5 of those over a week.

    Saw a load of level 10 gyms today. The new team battle changes initially had me thinking it would be great, but if all gyms go that way then it's going to have a very detrimental effect on the game.


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


    I did it, I finally caught a Snorlax!! :D I hatched him from an egg with 1730 CP, 87% IVs and he has Zen Headbutt and Earthquake as moves. It's not the best moveset in the world but I don't care, I finally have a Snorlax!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,809 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    Hatched my 3rd ever 10k and got a Magmar. Boo-urns.

    Getting *real* curious where you got that egg. Look who I just hatched...

    I transferred a 1,700 cp snorlax, to get that sweet, sweet candy. Felt like a bit of a prick doing it..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭AMGer


    Just got another Dratini from a 10km egg, with 29 candies - that is the kind of 10km egg I will never tire of :)

    Yeah I was excited when they changed but looking around my work this morning all of the gyms are level 7 or above and I don't have the time to be sitting trying to battle my way through a gym just to get a space in it. I'm realising that this was a bad update for me.
    I had a nice thing going where myself and my husband would take the gym across the road from me every morning on the way into work and leave a ****ty mon in it so that someone else could grab it later. We just wanted the coins. This has now become impossible for us. :(

    600CP Eevie in my house, nice little vaporeon it made.

    I caught a 666 Eevee and thought I'd get some beast, but turned out it was something like 23% IV

    It was the devil eevee, that's why :D

    Yep, used to have nothing within 200m, now have a triple spawn in my front room. Occasionally useful or interesting stuff. Mr. Mime was there just now.

    Apparently they've stopped mons spawning and started giving soft bans when you have the app open in a car, bus or fast moving bicycle. Unless you use a PoGO+.
    No more doing a lap of town to top up on pokeballs.

    I can go around town at town speed and still get stops on the run, but it does blank at higher speeds. Which is annoying because I'd have to stop outside a small town/village before i go in, to see what's in it.

    I've got a few Eevees now, all between 620 and 690cp, but the highest IV is 62. I know if I evolve one I'll just get another stupid Jolteon, so I'm not bothering for now.

    Random question, because I have two kids killing each other here over this....but how do you pronounce Arcanine? :D:D

    Rolled the dice on my 867 eevee and got another vaporeon. Will keep rolling, have 5 vaporeons (none with hydropump), 3 jolteons and 0 flareons. Wonder how long it would be to keep going not getting flareons and not using the trick. We shall see. More vaporeons the better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,331 ✭✭✭AMGer


    Good egg day so far - after the earlier Dratini I just hatched a Snorlax, only my second one ever


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40 jennywren


    All the original cartoons are on youtube - if you're not sure how to pronounce one you'll find it on there and your kids might enjoy it !

    Thanks everyone. That's how I would have pronounced it myself, but the kid who was insisting otherwise is the Pokemon fan in the house, so I was beginning to doubt myself :p

    First series is on Netflix aswell, 56 episodes or so.



    Anyone else finding an abundance of 10km eggs lately? Just hit a handful of pokestops and got 3 more. I have loads the last week

    Not got one 10k in the last 20 or 25 eggs. Too many 5ks, there's nothing really I want in 5k eggs anymore. Apart from Growlithe, Abra and Grimer, which I never hatch.

    Haven't had one in about 2 months.
