Pokémon GO! - (Savage)

are you physically walking away from them or choosing to escape from battle?

I'm not sure if pikachus are location based, but around here, I've seen a few dozen pikachus, which once you level, will be much better than the one you'd start with, I've personally yet to see a charmander, though.

If it was me, I'd pick whatever starter is opposite of what your area is, just to have him. For example, if you live in Arizona, I'd take bulbasaur.. etc.

Just hatched a Tauros today. I want to say I'm thrilled to have it (he popped with 565 CP about 3/4 of the way filled), but how the hell am I supposed to level this thing up lol. Fortunately they gave me 11 candy to start.

I picked charmander and never saw him in the wild. I have, however, caught squirtle, and missed bulbasaur twice.

I have that same problem with my electabuzz. lol

I caught wild Dratini and Lapras last night, and Im having the same problem :( That lapras is gonna be amazing when I'm able to near max it. Caught it around 800cp with half a bar to go.

I have a friend who caught some surprisingly rare pokemon and started releasing the weaker ones. Had to tell him not to do that, as they will probably be great for trades later.

With that being said, I think since the game is new, they will make events to help bolster our rare pokemon. I mean, if they had a legendary pokemon event and we could only obtain 1 of them, how could we ever buff it? They'd have to have some other method for obtaining candies for pokemon you don't see often in the wild.

inb4 the shops sell rare candies, usable on all pokemon ><

Escaping doesn't work, huh.. Final Fantasy games have failed me yet again!

Thats what I was thinking. I mean one of the games most "iconic" items IS the rare candy. I have a feeling once you hit a certain level, they'll start to become available rarely in pokestops.

Edit, missed the bottom about you mentioning shop rare candies.

I just started doing gyms today. Took over my first one. This video helped a lot.

Type advantage, and dodging.

Not sure if this has already been said in the thread, but has anyone else been getting horrible egg KM readings? I swear they use to be ok for me. Then once the 3 foot tracking bug happened my eggs have been all over the place. have 4 5km eggs that i started at the same time. 2 jumped from 4.3 and 4.4 to 4.8 and 4.9 out of nowhere. i kept looking at them and restarting my phone when i didnt notice a change after some distance.

Even pokestops sometimes didnt update them. hate when i see i have some time before popping an egg then a 4.6km egg hatches after a few steps =/

Today, I had 5 eggs. One very very very close to hatching. I walked around a bit, never got an egg hatching message. The egg literally disappeared from my screen and the infinite incubator returned to my item bag. I started freaking out, like where the fk is my pokemon, what did I actually get? I checked my journal and matched it to my "recent" pokemon and the last one I caught was at the top of both lists. Nothing. Restarted my game to see if something would pop and nothing. Ended up with 4 eggs in incubators, nothing left over.

So yes, there is an issue with eggs. The step ratio isn't correct. And you CAN occasionally lose an egg, either a bug or just rotten luck.

That was absolutely a Mewtwo if it had hatched....

there was a glitch in closed beta too btw, not sure if it ever got fixed or not.

- When placing multiple eggs in an incubator, 2+ at the same time, that require the same distance, at hatching time, you will only get credit for one egg, and the extras that where supposed to hatch at the same time would just... vanish.

smfh jeez man. thanks for telling me. I'll make sure I space out my egg placement beforehand.

so far that has never happened to me. and i do 5-6 5km eggs at a time xD

Pokémon GO version of MissingNo.? ;_;

/comfort

Nighttime Pokémon Go so far:

Cockroach Go,

Possum Go,

Raccoon Go,

Oh my sweet Bird Jesus, please take all of my [+] for this

Saw this today on social media and was pretty sure nobody else knew what these flags were. Just another thing people do to correlate teams with random other things.

Pretty much story of my life, except its Meowth on my screen @_@

Just an update on Sparky/Rainer.

Went 1/1 last night, on both Eevee's. I did reset the game after the first one just in case. Already had a Flareon so that pretty much leaves it to rest. It does work.

Just wanted to point out that multipliers ultimately determine the pokemon's evolution stats, and they are not all the same, despite having similar starting values of CP. evolved 3 eevees, and they all had similar starting values. The one with the lower value starting became Vaporeon, which oddly enough became the highest value cp post evolution. XS/XL apparently does factor into what the new-evolution stats would be. I'm sure you guys knew this, but I sure didn't (my jolteon came out with 800~cp, but started with 350 as eevee). Had to read up on multipliers to understand.

Also caught a Nidoking and Meowth in my neighborhood. And Tauros showed up on my scanner. Of course, I was in bed when I saw him, so wasn't getting that.

I've had it work on a Flareon and Vaporeon so far.

According to people here, my tests were flawed since I already had one of each before testing this. I done it a few more times anyway, mainly because I need a high CP Jolteon, and went 1/3 (Unfortunatly, only got a 950-some Jolteon ;-;)

GO team rocket!!!!

I just wish this game had more misty...

Dammit! had I thought of this I would of chose Instinct over Valor

Hmmm....

Lol Well Windurst was always off by itself...
