Pokemon GO! (2016)

Well that map definitely works. Was scanning the area I live in and a ryhorn spawned just right off my street, in a little side street I would normally have no reason at all to go into. I pulled on my jeans and shoes and went right out to get it. It turned out to be REALLY low level, CP15... which at level 11 is kinda pathetic. But at least it was a new one for my pokedex. And I decided to go for a little walk around my immediate streets while I was out. Didn't catch anything else worth mentioning, but 2 of my eggs popped. A shelder, which I already had, and another new addition, Sandshrew! And my 10K egg is now only 0.3K away from hatching.
 
I love fairly rural but for me the fun is finding the spots myself where the pokemon spawn.
Yeah I might get left behind soon but I find the locating the best part of the game.

If I knew where every good pokemon spawned could wrap the game up fairly quickly

I've explored more of my local area in last few days than I ever have
 
They need to release gen 2.
Gen 1 pokemon favour psychic types (due to so many damn pokemon being ruined by poison)

Gengar, beedrill, venusaur, vileplume venomoth

Seriously, why make bug good against psychic but then criple venomoth with poison and give it psychic moves

Also.. Water water water pokemon

Slowbro, psyduck and starmie all water psychic


Also if Niantic don't release move teaching in going to probably get bored soon.
I'm concerned when I get my gyarydos it will be crippled with bad moves like my polywrath.. I'm not doing it twice!
 
2h in town parks today. Positioned myself between Multiple lured pokestops and due to dodgy gps, managed to swipe all of them repeatedly. Also way more pokemons than i could catch. Got a few rarer pokemon - horsea, cubone, meowth. Got 30+ pokemons ready to evolve. Hit level 15 and a lucky egg, so reckon will aim for 45ish pokemons to evolve and use the egg. Should hopefly get me to level 18. Keep reading that gyarados and blastoise are catchable at southampton waterfront so that's the plan tomorrow.

Cracking day today...just got home after picnic all afternoon, wander in town and waterfront in the evening, salsa tonight, and take on a couple of gyms on teh way home. Level 15 to level 18 in a day. I evolved over 40 pokemons with my lucky egg and my phone (Nexus 5) was bloody struggling with animations one after the other! Finally have a few evolved pokemons good enough to challenge gyms, but will take it easy tomorrow.
 
Shame this map thing exists.
This is the reason I'm growing out of computer games. Anything that is MMO type inevitably attracts these methods of circumventing the essence of the game.
Which gives those who use it an advantage.
The map I'm not too fussed about, however the bots are taking it too far :( they should lock the api down.
 
True. But the map is very helpful for rural players where pokemons are severely limited and specially the broken tracking in game

In addition those with limited time, I haven't used the map yet but I like the idea of it as I get little play time and when I do I would like the idea of trying to catch something new feather than the same old dross 'mom every time forever.
 
Got a good haul yesterday, made even better with these 3 lures and an incense.

Some,one explain the concept behind levelling and evolution to me, and types of pokemon please.
My daughter has collected over 250 of them, I have had to delete some, so she can cath more, but as yet we have done zero evolving or levelling as I have absolutely no idea how it works.

Catch enough of one type, you get their candy, with catching them you also get star dust....do enough then you can evolve them.

As you catch Pokemon (and hatch them) you will get candy for that Pokemon only. When you transfer them to the professor you also get candy for that type. You can use this to evolve them. Evolving them will create a new Pokemon and give you experience points as well towards your level.

Power up makes them stronger as well but the potential is greater with evolved pokemon.
 
I accidently left my game running when I went to bed last night. Drained my battery down to 16% by the time I got up. Weirdly though, even though my phone was motionless, the character moved around on its own on the map for the game to think I walked an extra kilometre. Kinda weird the way it does that, guess its a gps issue?

Yup, handy for egg hatching too!
