Pokémon Pokemon Go General Discussion

Man, I'm really wanting to get Pokemon go. I can't wait.
If only I could find my phone, I'm going to get my bike and just cycle around the area searching for Pokemon. I'm the new Ash.
 
I've been hearing rumors that Fire types appear at gas stations?? Also that weather affects appearances too...
Wondering if I should hunt for a Growlithe around the gas station on the way to the park lol

I'd try going out today but it's too hot... gonna be like this for a while too.

I found Charmander in the dairy/produce isle at a Walmart, and I haven't seen any other fire types since then...
 
Where has everybody found Growlithe? I'm stumped on where to look as well.

just want to try and get an arcanine dude
 
I just started and so far I have Charmander, 2x Pidgies, 2x Rattatas, and a Venonan! There's a police station right across the street from me which is a gym and it's also next to a park which has like 5 PokeStops inside cause I guess it has a bunch of WWII memorial stuff inside. I guess Pokemon can really teach you something.

My dad's been wondering why I want to go everywhere with him now lmao. Go get the oil changed? Hell yea, it's next to a Pokestop! Go grocery shopping? Let's do it, there's probs some pokemon there!
 
The two 5k eggs I just hatched after all this time sucked. I got a Drowzee and a Female Nidoran. I immediately evolved that Nidoran though, because she had a decently high CP, and I just had enough candies to evolve her, so that was nice I guess.

Today, while I was out, I seen someone playing it and they nearly got hit by a car. Seriously. I knew they were playing it because they had a friend with them and I overheard them talking it. Just be careful out there, guys. This whole thing terrifies me. I think I'll stick to exploring digital worlds.
 
Is it okay to ask questions here? The game hasn't released in Europe yet but I managed to get it anyway through a link. I've been using it today and I noticed it takes up a lot of data and I really can't manage it like this. Is there a way to use it with less data usage or without internet at all (I heard downloading the map of the area you're in does something, but I still can't play without internet)?

Yeah, this is getting really frustrating/scary. I thought it would be cool before it was released because I imagined going for walks out in the country-side and catching Pokemon. Y'know, like it is the the Pokemon games. I didn't know the most activity would only be available in the cities and larger towns. I live in the country and I've been level 4 (can't really do much at level 4) since day 1. I leveled up by taking a 20 minute car ride (as a passenger) and i've never been to a poke stop. There is nothing within walking distance for me and there is no way in hell I'm loading my baby up in my car and going for a drive just to play this game. Pokemon won't even appear near my house at all. I thought the appp wasn't working at first.

Trying to find that out as well. Arcanine is my favorite.

Oddly enough I've found rarer Pokemon so I have no idea. Supposedly it's not that rare.

I've mostly been finding Growlithes in a park nearby me and if I remember correctly I caught one in the parking lot of a gas station/grocery store.

Good luck!!

4 people were arrested in my town for trespassing because of Pokemon Go. Now I'm worried that police are going to be camped out in places I need to get to when I go out on Saturday with some friends.
 
the trick to get Pikachu as my starter worked like a charm!

I caught 33 Pokemon & found 5 eggs at the mall today
 
I just got it and I want to go to my nearest Pokestop but it's 15 minutes away and it's currently 11:28pm and I don't want to be attacked

lol! don't risk your life! omg i'm hearing about so many accidents already...
 
Speaking of Pokestop is there a limit on how many times you can access it and get pokeballs or eggs or potions from it ?..

I don't think so, from what I've noticed you just have to wait about 10 minutes and you can get free stuff again
