    Sorry.

    Absolutely freaked out. Somehow the game mis-clicked my X to return to the main menu and actually purchased 8 incense modules. I did it again with screen record and you can see the X click being registered, but it actually tries to make a purchase. I've registered a support ticket, but from looking at similar experience online, they have had zero luck in getting it sorted. All those hard earned coins, now worthless.

    Oh $hit man ! :( this sucks.

    Maybe the screen was wet?

    I remember once after finishing my gym run on a rainy day, I had the phone in my raincoat.
    Game managed to go to the shop by itself and purchase an incence... Since then I am using a Touchblocker ...

    Oh the level of disappointment is unequalled - when you're praying for a Magby to hatch and out pops an Onix :(

    With these increased spawns, has anyone seen anything pop-up unexpectedly amongst the vermin? I ask as I was walking around my neighbourhood and all of a sudden 4 'mon appear; Kedabra and 3 standard 'mons. Kedabra's not local to my area and his appearance may be unrelated to the increased spawns but I thought I'd ask out of interest.

    Jesus! I hope you managed to catch it. Then again, don't you have at least 4 at this stage...? lol

    I did catch it, but it was only 860 CP. That's the 6th Lapras I've had, four from eggs, second wild catch

    Congrats though all the same; they're rare as anything! I've managed to catch one in the wild so its CP is <2000 CP. I hope to hatch one eventually but we'll see.

    Anyway, I'm off on a walking and catching spree so I'll let you guys know if I come across anything interesting in my travels! :D

    Have I missed any sneak references or hints about a Christmas event? I'm 68k from level 30 and have more than enough to lucky egg it but was waiting for some hint/ suggestion or whether it is worth waiting. I've three (charizard, manchamp, Muk) new ones to add TJ the pokedex too so very impatient! We still have four to go (Bloody Tangela, Omastar (quite close), Dragobite and Arcanine (close)) but getting there.

    Random 2400cp Rydon spawned on me two days ago, that was a good one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 82 ✭✭FaceCake


    I haven't noticed any real difference in spawns. Maybe I have just been spoiled lucky already though, snorlax and lapras have already spawned near my road over the months. They probably still are on occasion but all the tracker tells me is there are still pidgy and gastly in the cemetery up the road.


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


    The only increased spawns I'm seeing are even more Pidgey and Rattata. There was a Grimer nearby at midnight last night, went out looking for it and came to the conclusion that it had to be behind a locked gate (tire yard). The fecker sat taunting me on the nearby for almost an hour.

    Hatched back to back Sandshrew this morning :( Picked up 2x 10km eggs and a 2km, so fingers crossed for something decent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Same here, no perceptible difference in spawns. Getting a bit edgy about a useful hristmas even not happening at all


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭05eaftqbrs9jlh


    Damn meteor and their outage. Only got five gyms today and I actually passed two on my defeated way home. Think I missed a Ditto up in Dillon's Cross last night too, and I still don't have one :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Havent left the house yet and its my seven day streak. On meteor so a bit concerned about later

    You could go to a cafe near a Pokéstop and steal their wiffy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,969 ✭✭✭✭alchemist33


    Good thinking. I could use the wife's phone as a hot spot too, if I could only convince her to use data!

    No love from the Pokestops in Waterford today as far as 10km eggs go :(

    80km walked since Tuesday, near 120 eggs hatched, most of them 5kms - I've hatched everything possible from the 5km this week bar Lickitung, Grimer and Togepi. Disappointing that Niantic have made it this difficult to get Togepi. On Xmas hols now so I will continue to walk my ass off and fly through hatches until I get Togepi :) and hopefully the Pokestops will be more giving with the 10km eggs tomorrow.

    Could you give me your spare Tangela then please?! Cant catch or hatch one for love nor money.

    So I'm back from my travels and ended up finding a Grimer in St. Stephen's Green park along with 13 Kabutos in the space of an hour. Thankfully, I've now enough candies to evolve a Kabutops so that's another off the list. Also, Gastly's are all over that park!

    I found a few Squirtles around town, e.g. St. Stephen's Green, Merrion Sq. etc., which is always a nice surprise, as well as several Santa-hat Pikachus. During my travels, I hatched 8 5kms which resulted in crap! I don't know why I'm hatching Magnemites all the time now!? I hatched 2 back-to-back in that run!! Anyway, one good hatch was a Dratini from the 1 10km I had so I'm almost close enough to get a Dragonite; finally!!

    Finally, I managed to find my first wild Machoke but his IVs are crap; 'tis a shame too as he's 1448 CP.

    I'll get over my coin loss if this is the case, it being Christmas week, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that it'll happen. I'm mature enough not to stamp my feet when a free game doesn't go my way, but the entire community is waiting for an announcement. Don't let us down Professor.

    Just completed the 'dex with Aerodactyl, been looking for him for about three weeks now. Second last pokemon I had to get was Muk, ended up having to walk with Grimer as my buddy as found him very hard to come by in the wild. Happy days, then a 2400 CP Snorlax spawned in my kitchen ;-)

    Jammy!

    I've walked Grimer too and have 1km to go having caught my first grimer in the wild this morning. On to Growlithe next. Anyone seen any about to give us a helping hand? Need 21 more candies.
