that stinks :(

I catch like 85 weedles per hour practically. I love how the 30+ cp ones always break out of the ball at least once

I wish there were any drowzee in my area. I've caught like 2 so far. lol.

I also can't find diglett which is my fav. :(

Re: Pokemon Go!
 
The only weedle I've encountered was the one I hatched. Same with my caterpie. However I can find a geodude and growlith consistently. Even though they are supposed to be less common.

I haven't seen geodude nor growlithe at all

My wifes first actual catch was Electrabuzz o.O

I have the following bugs, have you got them?
- After every other catch the game freezes on the pokeball screen.
- Only three footprints are shown.
- Pokedex only shows my starter pokemon and otherwise it goes crazy. The text in pokedex is a one letter wide column :D

Servers are wonky is the explanation for the first. The three footprint is something that happened when niantic updated their servers. The last thing I'm unaware on.

My constant problem is that my GPS goes wherever it wants. Including when I'm gym battling which will kick me out as I destroy a gym. If you are kicked out while still battling you can't battle for somewhere up to 15 minutes or so because it kicks you out thinking you already exist in the battle.

Does that happen all the time? o.O The app is a bit buggy atm. Hopefully in the update a lot of it is fixed.

Sometimes when I catch a Pokemon it freezes and doesn't end up being caught :<, other times it just freezes and I reload the app.

This game is very fun but not abt to read 14 pages about it lol. I'm on team valor via indoctrination. Level 17. Saving alllll of my stardust until I hit like lvl 30. Evolving things only when I can evolve for 30 minutes straight with a lucky egg. I'm running more than I used to because of this game. Last night, GPS drift hatched two of my eggs after I had retired for the night. Both were Ponyta, one of them cp637.

Eevee candies are actually super useful
Since I have like 10 Eeveelutions
Also I've been exhausting most of my options for new dex entries from 10ks, I think the last two I need from those are Snorlax and Chansey (and Dratini but I caught a Dnite instead)

Be careful about doing that too much. They cracked down on people in Ingress that would be on opposite teams and would just kill a giant group of portals back and forth to power level. Got people banned eventually.

Got my first gym today :) On the way back to work from lunch there was a gym just sitting there with nobody in it so I dropped in my terrible 336 Pidgeot lol. It's the highest thing I have.

hi19hi19 07-21-2016 09:19 PM

Re: Pokemon Go!
 
Okay can I make an honest comment about this game?
It's a pretty badly designed game that is successful largely because of the Pokemon IP. From what I've heard, Ingress was and still is much better designed. After the hype fades, this game has little staying power mechanics-wise unless some good changes come in. Maybe nostalgia and social impact will be enough to sustain it though, who knows?

It doesn't help that the nearest Pokestop to me is 3 miles away and the nearest gym is a 10 minute drive. Once I run out of the free Pokeballs from leveling up I'm probably screwed until I go back to school and can live on the Brown campus again (on which it's impossible NOT to be within range of a Pokestop lmao)

That said I'm still enjoying PoGo for the nostalgia factor. Caught two Clefairys and a Seel today (along with the requisite hordes of Ratattas and Pidgeys and shit) and hit level 5.

I happened to drive near a gym today too so I got to choose Team Instinct - Zapdos has the greatest type advantage over the other legendary birds, thus it is the logical choice.


p.s. I picked the grill character, got a problem with that? :3

My phone is absolute trash tier and I read online that Go was only compatible with iPhone 5+ on iOS (I have a 4 that's barely functional)

After days of not being able to load the app, tried again today and somehow got through?

Seems kinda neat...my knowledge of game mechanics is basically non-existent atm I have no idea what stardust or any of this crap does or how it should be used effectively (will probably read up on this later) but one of the very first Pokemon I caught was a Snorlax and supposedly he's OP as fuck...which I'm pretty rattled about because I've heard everything you catch early on is complete shit in comparison to when you're a much higher level so to my understanding he's essentially useless?

Also throwing pokeballs is just as dumb as I thought it'd be with my phone lol

increases in your level expand the Combat Power (CP) of pokes you can get at the high end, but yeah at the start you'll only be able to get pokes that are so strong. you can Power them Up though

8 Hour Whore 07-21-2016 10:55 PM

Re: Pokemon Go!
 
It is best to just leave your Pokemon until you get your levels higher. Using up stardust to power up low Pokemon will just be a waste since you are almost guaranteed to find stronger ones later in your levels.
