    I can pretty much confirm the theory that the egg position is related to the Dex. It's most likely they assign a GUID to all eggs and they sort alphabetically some such rubbish.
    Well I just got a 10km egg, and it sat at the top of my list above all the 5km eggs that I already have.

    What is the first 10km poke on the dex? Hitmonlee?

    Does it stay there every time you check the position of your eggs or does it move around?


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


    It stayed, but I put it in an inc pretty quick.

    Knowing my luck it will be something bloody awful.

    Ah, sorry, I meant to type 'confirm that it's false' !

    Yep, I reckon charmanders everywhere will be getting walked to death this week! Also, Gengar!

    "From October 26th to November 1st, you will be able to earn double the amount of candy every time you catch, hatch and transfer your Pokémon. Also, having a buddy Pokémon out will help you earn candy four times as fast. While out and about on your travels you will also encounter more spooky Pokémon than normal, but Niantic advise that they only want to enjoy the fun too!"


    WOOOO. Sorry Charmander, you're no longer my buddy. Onamyte you're in!

    too right just made a list to see how much i could knock out , a Charizard in 60km, a Venusaur in 45km, that should definitly be doable

    or do i go all out for a Dragonite at 95km hmmmmmmmmm decisions decisions


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 36,394 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Think I'll gamble on catching the Bulbasaurs and Abras, catching some extra Gastlies, walk Pikachu and charmander or go all out for Machoke.

    I've gone fpor it swapped Grimer out for dragonair now try and get another 3 or 4 candies out of the next two days before the mad dash to get a Dragonite from 26th - 1st , figure i'll need about 17k a day minimum


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


    I just set Dratini as my buddy on Saturday, so I'll stick with him. Anything else that I currently have that I can evolve, are all 3km, so that seems more doable without the extra candy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 132 ✭✭Huntelaar


    There was a Snorlax on Abbey Street just now.... why so far away :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    Hmmm...wonder if I should set Dragonite as my buddy for this. He's only CP 400 odd and I could use the candies to power up to 1000+. Or should I just keep it on slowpoke to get my slowbro (about 20 candies off).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 164 ✭✭gmonov1


    If I can use this buddy bonus tactically, I will be able to add another 4, maybe 5 at a push to my pokedex. That should take me up to 120. I'd love to see more bonuses like this in future

    So much caaaaaaaaandy!! I honestly can't believe how much candy I'm gonna have. I'll start off walking the crap out of every single Pokemon I need to evolve. This is gonna be awesome!! :D


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


    Boom Onamyte already walking.
    10km egg and 7 5km eggs all lined up ready to pop first thing on Wednesday :)

    CCCCCCAAAAANNNNNDDDDDYYYYY

    I have to say +1 to Niantic, this seems like a nice little promo.


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


    That's potentially 60 Dratini candy if you can hatch one on those dates!


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


    I'd say they're gonna make a fortune from all the incubator sales.

    be walking all day to hatch as many eggs as possible, and great idea about buddying up with Omanyte, have rarely seen him since my first


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


    Candies from buddy Pokémon 4 times faster aswell. That means I'd only have to walk Bulbasaur for 41km and Grimer for 35km to have enough candy to evolve! Definitely doable over a week, especially with Monday off!


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


    Where do you find all this infomation? Sounds very exciting and tiring!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    Missed the part about double candies on hatches too! Might put on my 10k now and get started on the walking so it might be ready to hatch during the event...imagine a Dratini/Snorlax/Lapras from it, the candies! :D

    Coincidence I'm sure but three Gastlies have spawned nearby in the last couple of hours. Couldn't get any of them though.


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


    Just on the new update - 2km eggs are green, 5km yellow - what color are 10km?


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


    New update on Android has sort of fixed the sound bug. If a background notification triggers then sound in the game stops working until the app is killed and relaunched. With the new 0.43.3 update you only have to switch out and back into the app to restore sound. Minor text fixes too obviously.

    EDIT: tarted up the graphics quite a bit too. Mightn't be too kind to less powerful GPUs.

    Purple.

    I'm kinda second guessing who I should put as my buddy now. I need 66 Dratini candies. I'm thinking I'll get maybe 44 during the week of 4 candies (assuming I do all the walking I'm planning!), or I could run through a few others that I only need 3km per candy. Decisions decisions!

    Personally I think I'm going to stick on my Dragonite and do half of my 10k egg and leave the rest until the event...hopefully a Dratini from it!
