    Beyond frustrated with this game. Gym system is ****ed if you're in a low traffic area, and they won't do anything about it, instead they'll focus on taking down trackers while never fixing their own.

    I work beside Merrion square and sometimes get the gym during lunch for my daily coins, but it was level 7 when I got there, despite being level 4 this morning and also 20 minutes before I got there. I blame the student protest march which passed by right beside it :mad:

    I just came online to ask if anybody else was seeing a lot of starter Pokemon in their recent 2km eggs? This week alone I've caught 3 Charmander and 1 Pikachu. Definitely my best luck so far in the game considering I've only hatched 9 2km eggs since 4 October.

    Not in eggs, but I've seen and caught my first Pikachu and Charamander in the last week.

    On an unrelated note, I spotted a wild Vaporean in my sightings today. Imagine, an unevolved Vaporean...

    I'm convinced having Bulba as my buddy explains his appearance on the list.

    Just made Charmander my buddy, will see if he starts appearing.

    I have Bulbasaur the last 10 days and nothing. I have had a ton of Magikarp from 2kms the last two weeks which is appeasing me slightly for the lack of starters, still need that second Gyarados

    I've had Bulbasaur, Jigglypuff and Pikachu recently as my buddies and my 2km eggs have been Rattatas, Zubats and Weedles. I see enough of those fcukers on the street.

    I've seen 41 Eevies today so does that mean my next 10k egg will have one?

    Dear God I hope not! :(

    I've not seen any link between what buddy I've had and the type of Pokemon I've hatched from eggs. I've had Growlithe for 28km and not a sniff of one hatched nor have I even seen one in the wild.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 923 ✭✭✭hdl


    I've had Squirtle as my buddy for a couple of weeks and haven't hatched him...although until today, I didn't have a 2km egg in a while. And today I hatched a Pikachu, the only starter that I don't actually need! On the plus side, only 13 candies away from Blastoise!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,673 ✭✭✭mahamageehad


    It's been a good day! Took a gym this morning for the first time in ages as they've all been level 10 since the update. Popped a 10km - Onix (new). Then just now 4 5kms in a row- Ponyta (can now evolve), machop (new), rhyhorn (new) and cubone. Delighted overall! :) just when I'm getting bored of the game. All set for a lucky egg run this weekend with 6 or 7 new evolves. Still behind you guys with 86 seen on level 23 but struggling on!

    You're probably the only person I know on here who has caught/evolved a Muk. Congrats!! :D

    Ive only ever seen 1 Muk. A 35 CP specimen appeared out of nowhere when I was on my hols in Spain.
    Took me until 3 weeks ago to see a Grimer. Csught it and h

    I was 100 km before I got one from an egg, then they all came in the space of a week.
    It does not happen immediately but I have always hatched eggs related to my buddy.

    I've over 100 km to go with Charmander. So plenty of time to wait for egg hatches.

    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.

    Naturally I picked up 2 10k eggs in town today :pac:


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


    Got another 10km egg this evening, that's 4 on the go at the moment.

    How's this for the worst back to back egg hatch, four 5 km eggs hatched at once, Ponyta, Psyduck, Paras, Meowth :(
    I'll never get that Grimer, up to 745 eggs hatched now :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,639 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    200m till my latest 5k hatch come on big money.

    I've managed a 5 piece at the beginning of this month.
    Krabby
    Drowsee
    Nidoran F
    Goldeen
    Staryu

    Not the worst possible combination but definitely up there. I'd swap any of them, fcuk it, all of them, for a paras. :p


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 36,397 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Got a Diglett and a Ponyta back to back. First time ever getting two useful things in a row.
    Missed two dratini today. I know where they are but it's inaccessible land. Scaldy.

    It's a rubbish hatch but for some reason Drowsee seems quite rare in a 5km.

    I have grown to hate Staryu and Goldeen I've hatched so many of the feckers :)

    Spawn points removed from a load of places today, including everywhere on my street. I just don't understand what they're trying to achieve with this.

    Fair enough if they had a decent tracker but this will just piss people off so much more. I have a good memory of spawn points around the places I frequent in Waterford, if they change it's practically like being a 3 step glitch headless chicken again!

    Bring back fastpokemaps!

    Me too, partially because they are both useless but for goldeen it's mainly because every time I see one I sing Jolene by Dolly Parton (except I switch Jolene for Goldeen)

    Goldeen
    Goldeen
    Goldeen
    Goldeeeeeeeen
    I'm begging of you, please don't run away.......


    I don't even like the damn song!


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 36,397 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    I had a shadow of Rhyhorn's evolution earlier.

    Rhydon, see you, I could never go with you NJ matter how I wanted to.

    Just hatched a Squirtle! That makes nearly all the starters hatched this week!! I just need Bulbasaur now to make it 4/4 :D

    Honestly, this is the best 2km egg run I've ever had! Unfortunately, the same can't be said for my 5km egg hatches as I just hatched the following:
    • Paras
    • Goldeen
    • Porygon
    • Krabby
    • Rhyhorn


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 264 ✭✭Eirebull

    Was that in Marlay Park by any chance? Seems to be the only thing appearing there at the moment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 264 ✭✭Eirebull


    Pikachu appears in Nutgrove park and Pinsir in St Endas at the moment if that is any use to anyone.

    Ah here, Porygon more than makes up for the rest! Super rare, candies for Porygon2, it took me feckin ages to get one, I'd be chuffed to hatch a second one!

    I'm just concentrating on catching em' all so hatching something I already have is a missed opportunity to me. With that said, it is good to catch something other than Paras and Krabby repeatedly but I wanted another Growlithe or Nidoran. I'll count myself lucky though and hope my 2km luck continues ;)

    How much dollar have you spent!?

    I refuse to spend any money on the game. Not worth it.
