Pokémon Pokemon Go General Discussion

[N a t]

@Bone Baby - thank you, I think I really lucked out!!

overall today was really good for me - I got to stock up on balls, leveled up to 10, caught a clefairy (finally!), a growlithe (WOOT) and I finally had enough candies to evolve my eevee into a flareon - btw, is the eevee evolution random?

2km away from hatching my 10km egg - better get some walking in this weekend! XD

Sounds like things have been going pretty well! Yeah, sadly the eevee evolutions are random. I have 3 Joletons... >>

Got to level 6 & caught a bunch of pokes that I didn't have yet when I went out shopping. Also, Valor seems to be ruling the 10 gyms that I passed so I went ahead and...joined in on Valor because I'm a cool cat.

Forgot to mention I got a 10km egg, 2 2km eggs, and 6 5km eggs!

Just sitting here on the sidelines like we Instinct members do. I've seen a lot of flaming happening between Mystic and Valor, not on here of course, but in general. It's really funny how Red and Blue are practically at war, and we Yellows are just chilling Not saying everyone of a specific color is any way, but the majorities... I just can't believe there's any aggression to begin with though...

Will I ever reach level 8

These 2 5k eggs may actually be taking me longer to hatch than my 10k did e_e

aaa I love the game so much! admittedly I've been out of the house more than usual to go catch some pokemon. cx I caught a really adorable vennonat yesterday! and I joined team valor a few days ago! I also caught an arbok with a pretty high cp, in the 200's. I'm on level six. 'u'

Ah that's so nice. Arbok is super rad, I can't catch enough Ekans though :c
I will also admit that Pok?mon Go probably has done some good for me. I quit exercising a while ago, cuz I had no motivation, and I'm lazy. I HATE exercise, but I love Pok?mon so much that I have been walking a lot, every day. My brother and I are also getting along a little better. My parents hate it though. I'm a good kid, but they don't care about that. "I'm too old for Pok?mon", so it's an issue, but they haven't really tried to separate me from the game yet...

"I'm too old for Pok?mon"

Pokemon Go is something we've been dreaming of since we were 5. Of course we're going to play it! It's not our fault we're "too old" by the time it released.

I feel like since it's something I grew up playing, I'll never be "too old" for it. You're never too old for classic childhood stuff.

I know, and I know you guys understand. My folks just don't. It's a different time, and everyone's parents grew up differently, so for my parents in particular Pok?mon Go is kinda pathetic. I don't let my folks sway my decisions, I just wish they'd stop giving me crap about things like this. I've loved Pok?mon my whole life, and grown up with it. It's not that much older than iirc. I've honestly been doing better emotionally and physically since Pkmn Go released, and it's only been like a week.

arbok is super cute! I've honestly caught so many tbh. they're everywhere where I live. cx
haha, I'm the same way! my parents are kinda glad about the game because it's getting me to go outside more (I have really bad social anxiety irl, and now I'm opening up a lil). i bet the older generation is totally hating this game because it's a way to get outside and excersize and interact with others on the phone.

 

[Bwazey]

I normally walk around 3 miles ever few days.

Now I've been walking around 6 miles every day. Which makes me feel pretty good actually. I was trying really hard to get more exercise, but I had no real motivation. Bless this game.

I really need to stop mentioning whenever I need candies from a specific Pok?mon, I've cursed myself. First I remember talking about Eevee candies, and got an Eevee from my freaking 10k egg. Just earlier today I basically said I need more Ekans, and what do ya know!? One of my 5k eggs hatched into a freaking Ekans. I don't hate Ekans, I really like it tbh, but when I'm walking my butt off in this heat to hatch my eggs, I expect something awesome, and everything has been crap so far. My other egg was a Sandshrew. The only good part about this walk today, was that I ran into a Rhydon with a CP of 635. Making it my strongest Pok?mon right now, and possibly one of my rarest. I still need to think of a Punny name for it though >>

Lol literally just came to me, got a name for Rhydon cx

I keep seeing people say this all over the internet, but no one ever posts a source. xD

Well idk if I'm ALLOWED to post links here but yeah : https://www.vg247.com/2016/07/14/pokemon-go-news-trading-pokestop-upgrades-leaderboards/
you can also google "pokemon go trading" you'll find more than one article about it.

Got a Lure from my level up and proceeded to use it on the only stop in my area. Eventually a guy pulls up and we start talking about stuff, then he went and challenged the gym that was right there. It was interesting because you actually see the battle happening over the gym, there's lightning bolts when an electric attack is used, tornadoes for flying, ect. He ended up winning so we got to add our team to it. I added the Beedrill I evolved to level up. Later two more people pulled up which proves that Lures are great for attracting new friends. xD

Got another 5k egg as well as an Exeggcute and a red Nidorino with a very high potential (but needs 100 candies to evolve??) Still looking for a Growlithe but at this point it's pretty obvious I'm not going to find one.

Also I heard a rumor that if you catch 400 Magikarp the loading screen changes from Gyrados to Magikarp?? Probably just a rumor but I could totally see it happening.

Just hatched 2 2k eggs, got a freaking Weedle and Ratatta -_-

oh bummer!!!!! :< that's like all I can catch ha... ; o ;

 

[Pokemanz]

Well, it was fun while it lasted, but my game is over. I've run out of Pokeballs and that means I unfortunately have to quit the app. :/

 

[Ichigo.]

I drove around really slowly for a few minutes and my 5km eggs are close to hatching! went so much faster than when I walked and I walked around for a few hours too.

I'd totally give you a Growlithe if a trading feature was implemented (which is likely), I have 2 extra I caught.

Don't give up, just wait for Pokestops or something... ;_;

I don't want someone else's though, I want my own. I don't mind if people trade me theirs so I can get the candy to evolve, but the first one has to be mine. ;-;

Wouldn't care if it was any other Pokemon, but Growlithe is my favorite...

Don't give up, just wait for Pokestops or something... ;_;

There aren't any around and my request for one was rejected. I can't live off of the 2-4 it gives me every five minutes anyway. I'm tired of this app favoring cities and making it impossible for people in the suburbs to play.

I totally understand where you're coming from, on both of your replies here. It just sucks to lose a fellow player like this. :s
