I was covering a state little league game last night and the field was a PokeStop. The game's start was delayed and someone set off a lure. Nabbed a few decent Pokemon like a strong Squirtle, an Eevee, a Jigglypuff and a Cubone, all stronger than the previous ones I owned. I'm a couple candies away from evolving my last Eevee into a Jolteon.

caught a tauros the other day when i was leaving work. i don't spend a lot of time walking around hatching eggs and stuff, so i'm still just level 9. might take some time wandering around the park this weekend and get some water types and stock up on pokeballs

[skwormin]

walked around the park for seriously like 2 hours at midnight with 6 friends all playing this game. it was hilarious. hauled in so many pokemon. hatched 4 eggs yesterday and 2 of them were 10kms.

Then finally got some water types over lunch today in the mountains. Almost to level 16. And I only have like 3 Pikachu's they are all <30 CP

Game revamped the tracking and got a lot better overall. I'm hoping for even more positive changes. New Pokes will allegedly come out in November.

[ryguy469]

i don't get the new tracking at all

[BotheLaneFan]

By the way, anyone here excited for Sun and Moon? I won't be shocked if I stop playing Go completely when it comes out.

[justink]

anyone still playing this?

i got a screen with a pikachu, bulbasaur and a squirtle on it today. then i got to a stop sign and they all poof'd away...

san francisco is running a beta on the tracking that is fantastic. i hope they roll it out. i fucking LOVED IT.

[justink]

anyone get Ditto yet? i've wasted all my fucking balls on rattata and pidgeys.

also, looks like a huge update coming:

[BotheLaneFan]

I had one pop up, but the fucker ran after I threw one ball.

[JRS1386]

Havent played in ages

[justink]

still no ditto. i'm getting tired of catching ratts and pidgeys.

[BotheLaneFan]

Sun and Moon took a while to get fun, but they eventually got there.

[Roose13]

I'm well into the game and really enjoy it. Bo, do you have Sun or Moon?

[cry_minarets458]

I need to get sun and moon still

Sun. Game took FOR FUCKING EVER to get going, but by the time I hit Island 3, I was hooked in pretty well. Game was actually challenging, which was a nice change.

[Roose13]

Agreed. A few of the challenges are tough. And the call for help feature is a pain in the ass but makes actually catching Pokemon hard.

You can get BOSS pokemon that way, too. Just keep killing those little fuckers until they call on one of the really rare and good ones.

What's your team looking like so far? I just finished the third island and my team is this (not accurate on the levels, my game is at home)

-Greninja (44 - didn't start using him until a couple trials ago)
-Decidueye (40 - coolest looking starter final evolution since Infernape IMO)
-Haunter (41ish)
-Jolteon (39)
-Gyrados (36)
-Absol (31 - gonna replace this with a stronger Pokemon soon)

[Roose13]

My team now after the last trial

-Greninja (56) - dark/water
-Solgaleo (55) - psychic/steal
-Decidueye (53) - grass/ghost
-Jolteon (51) - electric
-Haunter (50) - ghost/poison
-Hakamo-o (44) - dragon/fighting

Pretty low numbers for where you're at in the game. Elite 4 is going to be tough, I suggest bringing your numbers up a little bit.

I just started over to try new stuff out. My team at E4 was Greninja 62, Solgaleo 60, Litten Final Evolution (I nicknamed it Morris Day, I can't remember it's real name) 64, Crabominable 52, Exeggutor 50 (NEVER learns a dragon move, and can't by TM. Fucking useless), Klefki 52 (FUCKING BOSS, one of the best Pokémon ever.)

Eh, he could make it through. He'll just have to be hyper aggressive. His balance is shit, though.

[justink]

caught a shit ton of the new second generation pokemon today. i love all the new updates!!! pretty exciting, my son is geeking out because he already knows who they all are and he has been begging me to email niantic to add mega stones (which they did apparently)...

[BotheLaneFan]

This game rules again!

[Roose13]

Love the new design so much. Easier to switch balls and feed raspberries

[BotheLaneFan]

And nanab berries!

Pianp berries give you double XP for catching something.
