    Reached Level 40 on Feb 2 , did most of my damage in the double xp event back in November when i did 6 million in 10/11 days and went from 9 to 15 million.
    When i reached level 39 there was even a huge level of satisfaction then knowing you were on last level but had done 75% already and the big goal was in sight.
    I was doing an hour at lunch and an hour in the evenings nearly every day but have largely cut out that evening walk/grind now , im definitely enjoying the game a bit more now too that the drive for XP is gone , although im still catching nearly everthing and doing evolves.

    I'm still 650k off level 39, though I'm making good time on it, having only hit 38 just before the new year.

    Well just hit 28 with 280 caught / 295 seen but I have some big breaks in there as my excuse for the delay... No gold badges yet but a few silver but travelling a whole lot has not helped with building up them. Will see how it goes; getting a new phone specifically to be able to Pokemon for more than an hour straight which will hopefully help but still no idea how I'll get beyond 30 at this rate :P

    Level 40 for about 2 weeks

    Save up your pidgeys for the double XP events; it looks like there's one every 2 months now.
    If you evolve 75 pidgeys with a lucky egg over the next 10 days it will get you halfway to your next level.

    I find having a power bank or two in my bag helps. I never travel without them these days.

    Close to Level 36 myself.

    added 200k there at lunch running 2 lucky eggs, doing some evolutions and hit 3 level 5s.


  • Registered Users Posts: 492 ✭✭CraigM84


    just hit level 38, 40 mins of evolving last night and 18 more there, only to be hit by 3M Xp for next :P Still got plenty of lucky eggs and nice run of mon to evolve though so lets see how it goes :)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 18,260 CMod ✭✭✭✭Nody


    Hit 29 today with 284 / 300 with two or three one or two catches away from evolving. A new phone (One Plus 5T) is a bloody miracle for pokemon hunting, must have walked around for 3h straight without using more than 40% of the battery and overall went from 107k to 302k exp today (must have caught over 200 pokemons total and around 60 pokemon stops in multiple walks). Not a big deal in the scheme of things to come but makes me happy :P

    Now up and onwards to 30 and beyond.

    And 30 achieved at 290/309. long shot dream that I'll hit 31 by Friday; it feels unlikely but I'll push for it depending if the weather allows it.

    Not sure if anyone is a interested, but I watched the Trainertips video last night of him hitting Lvl 40. At the end he went thru his stats and I found it very intriguing. I’m playing since day of launch, am just shy of Lvl 38. I don’t grind and wasn’t a big gym player before the rework.
    I was intrigued by how similar my stats are to Trainertips. But he has 2 levels on me.

    'EDIT: used phog's table to make it clearer ;EDIT

    Trainertips Mine
    Jogger 1,900 2292
    Pokestops 19,812 20234
    Catches 23,066 21390
    Evolutions 2,631 3155
    Eggs hatched 1,829 1330
    Gym battles 2,632 1747
    Gyms defended (hours) 1,623 7437
    Berries 1,964 4364
    Raids 126 28
    Legendary raids 308 77


    His pokedex is 364/366, mine is 354/366. (Both of us have yet to see Wynaut and Tropius)

    It really shows the XP advantage of using lucky eggs for more than just evolve runs and lots of raids. He has 230 more legendary raids than me, thats 2.3m base XP straight away.

    I’m going to a new US city tomorrow for work,planning on walking around with lucky eggs on for 2-3 hours. Level 38 will be achieved and hopefully a chunk into it too. I used all my coins on 2 of those boxes with the 20 Premium passes, they came with a lot of lucky eggs so Im going to be using to be using them more often if playing in a city centre for an hour or so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 981 ✭✭✭mighty magpie


    Yeah i'd like to see a stat on the number of lucky eggs used.

    It's 40,000 xp per level 5 raid this week with an egg on. A guy i work with done 10 level 5s yesterday on top of all his other activities and reached level 40 last night. Isn't afraid to throw £50 into the game when those boxes are on sale which means he usually has plenty of passes, eggs and incubators.

    Edit - I also bought a GoPlus late into the game.

    Edit #2 to correct my Dex stat

    You’ve certainly smashed the stats of a very popular YouTuber.
    Cash wise I would guess approx €90-100 for me. Bought 2500 coins twice, (€44) and 1200 coins prob 4-5 times. (€44-55)
    And a Go+, so add another €35!

    Edit; just did a lucky egg evolve, only 3500 from lvl 38. Will get that today.

    These are mine compared to TrnrTips. I currently have 520K into level 38. I reckon I've put about €250 into the game. I did buy a Go+ aswell and I think that is huge in relation to my stats for Pokemon caught and Pokestops spun.

    Thanks to phog for the table template :pac:

    Did not hit 31 on Friday (45k short) but hit it today at 297/320 (should have been 298 if I had not missed the Bass needed to be walked 20km as a buddy).

    Just an update. I did about 4-5 hours grinding Thursday/Friday, new stops with lucky egg on. Just under 400 new stops visited, started at 7419xp into level 38.
    Currently at 557934xp, also got candy for 2 new evolves (Milotic and Pelipper)

    Hit 32 to my surprise as I had not realized it was double exp on all pokemons during the community day. Got another 67k in on 32 which is well ahead of schedule. Up to 317/337 on the codex but most evolves will now require hundreds of km as buddies to unlock enough candy or getting a lucky string of eggs for more unlocks. Hopefully raiding will help fill in some other gaps however.

    Yup, those big names are bloody annoying. Dragonite was my last Gen 1 non-regional pokemon to get in the dex.
    Start walking Beldum or Bagon (if you have them) quick smart.
    My Larvitar got walked almost 250km before I got my first T-Tar, had only hatched 2 before I finally got it.
    Am currently walking Bagon, hatched 2 I think, need 60 more candy.
    Luckily got enough hatches and catches to get my Metagross 3 days ago.

    Those three are all done and working on the second Larvitar (got 120 candy but no good Larvitar to level up).

    The once to walk for me now are:
    Grimer (current one to get it done)
    Chikorita (2nd evolution done)
    Mareep (2nd evolution done)
    Phanpy
    Porygone (got the three chips already)
    Chansey
    Lotad
    Numel
    Seedot
    Ralts (2nd evolution done)
    Slakoth (got 47 candy so 2nd evolution technically done)
    Wailmer
    Wynaut
    Spoink
    Lileep
    Snowrunt

    And that excludes walking out candy to buff them which will come down the line as well. But hey; that's the name of the game so more eggs and more walking is the medicine of the day.

    Well I slacked off at around 650k due to business trips etc. but it's done; 33 hit, Mew captured and at 328/347 (which should be +1/+1 as I got an unevolved Slakoth only waiting for the final candy to push all the way through). Still have a few more mons to walk out with multiple with in 20 candy of evolving so a few more numbers to add to the book by 34 for sure.

    Yep - is it 10,000 for a legendary raid? So 100 = 1m XP....
