Hatched a perfect Wailmer Caught two perfect Cubone Hatched a shiny low-iv Klink Caught a shiny 0/0/1 Absol Caught a shiny Dratini and Litwick, and a separate perfect Litwick on their respective community days The raid scene near my office is pretty terrible so lots of Giratina and Guzzlord and...

Except for a couple hours the first few days I got it, and a few hours' grinding recovering from a migraine, most of my 28-some-hours playtime has been on the train commuting. Sound is off, train is very bright and reflects strongly on the Switch. Yesterday I was finishing up tenning the...

Been on a catching spree trying to get just a few Excellent throws to evolve my Farfetch'd into Sirfetch'd. Naturally every single orange+ ring that I hit that's not an excellent, I catch. And the ones that I think should be Excellent throws, aren't. On the plus side, I picked up a shiny...

I've been away from home for several weeks for work reasons, traveling internationally. About the only notable things outside of getting a few steps further into a bunch of the old Special missions I didn't do anything with for a while include: a 2* shiny Mr. Mime a <1* shiny Pikachu (normal)...

Sitting at my desk in work, I watched a Porygon spawn... and then vanish. And I was tethered to my desk so couldn't run out and get it.

Sometimes, dodging doesn't help, depending on the gym defender's attacks. Also, some defender attacks seem to have a "wide angle of effect" instead of just "if you're in front of it." While I don't have a lot of gym experience under my belt either (mostly due to having low power battalions) the...

Hatched two fives this morning - Mankey and Psyduck. Both of which I have. oh well - I'll hope for something different out of the tenner that's on deck.

The high toss throw is a bug that has been mentioned a few times on Reddit. I get it from time to time, especially if I don't let the Poke I'm battling situate itself on screen before my first throw. It's almost like it's an intended change to stop people from rapidly attempting to spam a ball...

Caught (New): Vulpix, Abra (funny that I caught Kadabra first), Poliwhirl (also funny that I caught Poliwrath first), and Tentacool (hey wait, I caught Tentacruel first!) That's about it. I'm going to have to spend some significant time restocking 'Balls.

I got level 20 sitting at my desk yesterday. Due to being in the office, deep inside the fourth floor of a 14 floor building, the GPS always has a hard time locking on me, so it tends to swing me around a 3-5 block radius. It shot me over towards the nearby Community College, and bamf, Tauros...

I evolved 40 Pidgey last night, and 9 others which garnered me new 7 Pokemon, which catapulted me from mid-level 17 to a hair before level 20. New: Weepinbell, Hypno, Kingler, Vaporeon, Pidgeot, Exeggcutor, Gloom

It is additionally beneficial to evolve something you haven't caught yet. For example, if you catch a new Pokemon, you get a 500 exp bonus, right? With a Lucky Egg, that becomes 1000. So evolving Bellsprout into Weepinbell, if you have not previously caught Weepinbell, nets you 500(*2 for...

Saturday: Hatched: Pidgey, Rattata (sigh) Caught (notable): Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Dratini (430cp), Pinsir (926cp) Caught new: Kadabra (76cp) Missed: Tauros due to the terrible radar. It was on my radar in the third position, on the big screen in first, and yet I couldn't home in on it before...

Yes, but the tradeoff is that the radar sucks right now. Yesterday I went grocery shopping and in the parking lot a Tauros popped up on the radar. On the bar, it was in the third position. On the full radar screen, it was in the first position. There were no grass/leaves anywhere around me, so...

Hatched: Caterpie, Weedle. Caught (new): Golbat, Slowbro (at 1125cp, he's my strongest poke yet) Caught (hard to find): Growlithe (3, ranging from 49 to 485 cp.), Dratini, 12cp. Ugh. Have only been getting 2k eggs from 'Stops.

I went on a 2.5 mile walk last night and even though my screen didn't dim and didn't autolock (I disabled it for my walk) I would lose GPS signal every 30 seconds or so with a clear sky.

It probably is. They didn't get as many people buying incense and lures as they'd hoped, and instead people are spamming Pokestops. I'd be half surprised if they doubled Pokestop cooldown to 10 minutes. Then there'd be even more yelling. I think someone on Reddit calculated that you need to...

I have been working from home throughout the past week but played on nightly walks. Newly Hatched: Seel, Shellder Newly caught: Metapod, Starmie, Poliwrath Used two incense. Found them to be useless where I'd used them as they only attracted more of the common pokemon that were common to...

Not tremendously, no. I bike and walk throughout the week, so this gives me something else to do while doing those activities. Also, I'm a geocacher and get out at least once a week, so this can tack on to that a little (until they spread poke-population around a little more).

Yesterday as I left the office I had to restart the app because it wouldn't update the screen (it still showed me at my desk, with a loading ball in the corner) and wasn't able to log back into the game (even after a phone reboot) until this morning. Caught nothing, but still trying to rebuild...
