Pokémon Pokemon Go General Discussion

Thanks! Probably not going to hatch anytime soon since it's always 35-40 degrees Celsius (95-105 F) outside.

Lol I FEEL YA. It's been about the same in my area, unless you get clouds or rain. I FINALLY caught my Ghastly, and I'm thrilled. I don't get to leave my neighborhood too much, so I consider myself lucky. I've been trying to get a Ghastly for days. This one has 128 CP iirc, and I named him Spoops <3
 
so ya know when you click into pokemon nearby and you can touch one and it circles it? are you then tracking that specific pokemon? does it guide you to it? I'm not sure how it works.

also, I'm using battery-saving mode (which helps I think)!

yup it basically shows up so you don't have to keep staring at the nearby screen, but i like having the entire screen up. it doesn't guide you, you still have to find it regularly unfortunately.

and battery saving mode doesn't actually help, it is just a feature that doesn't work yet. it has been tested, but i like the idea of it lol.
 
P.S. My car is great working condition, but it's missing one thing. AIR CONDITIONING ;_;

The real "Battery Save" mode would be a portable charging brick, or leaving your phone on a charger constantly, and only taking it off to go hunting >>

haha true, i take my dad's big grey charger when i go out. not too portable when you don't carry a bag, but it saves me from low battery moments
 
Has any one found or discover anything crazy on their Pokemon adventure while playing Pokemon Go. Also do water Pokemon appears in pool areas cause for some reason no water type Pokemon have appear around my pool area which is strange.
 
I've yet to catch any water-types, but I'm going overseas tomorrow so when I'm on my trip hopefully I can catch some :p

not pool areas, it has to be a public park with water. if the water doesn't show up on the game, it is not a place where water pokemon will spawn.
 
Can someone please explain to me what is so appealing about this game? This might be surprising to hear, but I have never owned a mobile phone. Also, I only consider myself a casual Pokemon player.

just collecting pokemon outside, playing with friends, and bring the pokemon community together is enough to make me want to play. and catching wild pokemon outside while getting exercise is fun enough for me. but it might not be everyone's cup of tea to download and play it, but i find the game extremely fun.
 
Dunno if anyone posted this yet but I found a pretty accurate rarity scale.


Not official but pretty accurate.
My rarest encounter was Jinx and my rarest capture was Staryu.

I dunno, I think more people hate it then they love it, but I enjoy the fact that this game gets me outside and gets me moving for the things I want. I want these things,because they're Pok?mon, and I love Pok?mon. I've grown up with everything Pok?mon, from the cartoon to the cheap McDonalds toys. I've played almost every Pok?mon game. The only one's I've excluded myself from are the Puzzle games, Forum games, and a few sequels. I love Pok?mon though, and I love this game. It's also a great way to challenge myself. Pok?mon games have gotten easy for me, but not this one. Oh no, I have to literally WORK for things.

Thanks a lot, I dig this! My rarest Encounter was Pikachu I guess, and my rarest catch was Bulbasaur... I need to do better, I want Mr.Mime on my team so bad. That Pyschic/Fairy Dual type is so appealing *-*

I haven't even seen anything EPIC or above on my gps. My friend caught a Dratini, and I'm hoping he'll tell me where he found it. Maybe I'll get lucky if I head there too... I would love a Dragonite, it's so cute. None of my friends have seen a Mr.Mime yet though :(

Lapras is super cute too, if they ever implemented shinies into this game, I'd be hunting Lapras like mad. Shiny Lapras is purple and white, I'm in love with it ;w;
 
Just like StreetPass, yet another thing I can't do because I live in the middle of nowhere with nothing :(

It's not gonna be as difficult as street pass though! I live in a fairly remote area, and catch a lot of Pok?mon. I think it's all luck, and once I catch one pokemon, it seemingly becomes more common for me :eek:

Rip me ever finding a porygon again

Just don't give up and try the same area again and again if you can! It's worked for me :)

My friend told me where he found his dratini. I'm gonna stake the area next time I get the chance, and hope that one appears for me. >>
