Pokémon Go - Gen II

Got the notification for the "Partner Event". Wish it would kick off now

Well Niantic are calling it the Partner Event, but its commonly known as the starter event where all 3 starter Pokemon and their evolutions will be more widely available.

On the website they are saying afternoon but mention PST timezone so probably more like midnight here.

Lunchtime walk yielded a Smoochum and Pichu, my first baby mons. Happy with that!

Also a Charmander over at St. Patricks Cathedral, first one I've ever seen or caught in the wild.

10km egg gave me a Kabuto still babyless. Have another 10km on the go but knowing my luck will end up with Onix or Jynx again

You can't get Jynx anymore in the 10km - going on what I've seen with the 10km eggs the last week you're never more than two hatches from a baby in the 10kms - hatched two more this morning and got another Magby from one.

Iv either found myself a right little 10k egg nest or they've gone mad dishing them out.

They are dishing them out like crazy. I've 5 cooking at the minute, don't think that has ever happened before.

I was about to ask what is a good moveset combo, as that's what my new guy has. He came with 17 candy so have powered him up to 1900 odd cp. Analysis is the second best, so IV is 60 to 80 if I'm not mistaken.

Frost breath/Blizzard is best for attack, I think Ice Shard/Ice Beam is best for defending, someone please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Another Magby here today too. Finally picked up two 10kms eggs today (the most I've seen together all week), but I think I've picked up this cold/flu thing from the kids so I don't plan on any walking this weekend.

On Lapras moves, we have 4 here (and when I say we, I mean the kid, not me ) and not sure which to power up. The first one had frost breath/dragon pulse and we got carried away and used the candies it came with to power it up to 2200.

Since then, there have been three more with ice shard/dragon pulse x2 and ice shard/ice beam, and 70 candies to play with. I assume the ice shard/ice beam is the one to power up, but is it actually good enough to power up or should we be waiting for a frost breath/blizzard?

Two weeks ago when I wanted them I couldn't get a 10km for anything, this week I've had at least three everyday!

btw - there was another Dragonite in town today, out the Dunmore Rd. At a massive 46CP!

New loading screen is up!!!

There's a Charmander at the pokestop 1.5km away......what to do, what to do!

Damn, incubator gifts are gone!

Just went for a quick stroll - multiple Squirtle, Charmander and Bulbasaur aswell as an Ivysaur and Wartortle.

I'll say this, I'm glad I stocked up on great balls and ultra balls! A little concerned about my stock of raspberries though!!

Do you want use it for attackinformation or defending?
If defending (in my opinion Cloyster and Dewgong make great ice attackers ) the power your ice shard/ ice beam.

If attacking then wait on frost breath. It'll shred Dragonite like lettuce.
