Who still plays? How is your progress coming along? Your team? Valor here. I’m a tad behind some of my friends, but I’m keeping up. I’m level 24 now, with a pokedex of caught/seen ratio of 97/117.

I keep finding a lot of Eevees here for some reason, so I have a few Vaporeons, Flareons, and Jolteons. I usually place my vaporeons in gyms. What your guys top 12?

Still playing although very occasionally now. No longer going out to play which me and my housemates did when it was first out, but if i am wandering around i tend to fire it up.

Level 24 also, with pokedex caught 121 and seen 129.

Not a playing as much as I used to. I kinda went crazy during the Halloween special and got burnt out on it. But during that time I added like 12 new evolved Pokémon due to all the extra candies. I’m level 25, dex is at 105. And my top dog is my Arcanine. I’ve got the day off so I’ll probably go out and play today.

The pickings for diverse Pokémon unfortunately aren’t great where I live. We have mostly grass type and bugs. And eevees.

That’s impressive, and I’m a tad jealous. To you travel a lot? How did you get that many so quickly?

Play from time to time, grinded from late july to end of august. For some reason, I never get anything above CP1500 like everybody else does :( also no time to hit up nests anymore.

Pokemon Go is installed on my phone still. I think my son may have caught a gengar at McDonalds recently.

Nice! I’m debating about taking a gym during lunch. But I dont think it’ll last long in the city.

Ekans looks like a poo, I haven’t been able to play as much as I’d like

My job involves me being all over town and walking a lot. I rarely play outside of the work day. Hatched a lot of eggs and got lucky too. I’ve hatched 5 Lapras, never seen one wild, and my friend who used to play more than me has never seen one.

I suggest checking out The Silph Road on Reddit and their website. It’s super helpful. I used it to track down Kabuto since that was the last one I didn’t have. Lots of tips and the subreddit is up to date on all the new release notes and tips/tricks discovered

Just hit level 21 thanks to the new daily bonuses, then gave myself a nice boost with a lucky egg thanks to the temporarily upped spawn rates.

I had actually uninstalled the app just before they announced the Halloween event, but I reinstalled it to check out the event and have returned to playing regularly since.

Yeah, for Halloween they had a bunch of ghost types spawn more often. I have like 5 Gengard now, lol.

I still play regularly, but new my phone is glitchy and will only log on on a wifi connection. Also, I do not live or work in walking distance of any pokestops.

My pokedex is 91/102. I have a few Pokémon I can evolve, but I am waiting to go straight to the 3rd evolution. Last week my voting place was at a church, so I was able to gym battle for a half hour of our 1:15 wait to vote. :)

I noticed that the higher level you are, the stronger you can make your Pokémon and you encounter higher cp ones in the wild. If someone has a 2000 cp Pokémon, their level is probably in the high 20s.

I for sure haven’t played a lot because I’d have to drive somewhere to get anywhere with anything in game.

I like how Snorlax just towers over you.

I usually have it open wherever I go. I even bought a $10 battery pack to recharge it. It’s just a fun thing to do when your out and about, :).

I had given up on playing a while ago. I had gotten to around Level 15. My only reason for stopping is that I can’t play without cell service. Or rather the whole game relies on that concept. I often hike 20+ miles 3-4 times a month but I usually have no/limited cell signal the whole time. So I can’t even hatch eggs. I wish the game just relied on GPS and let me play offline. There is no real multiplayer action anyways so the data connection is pointless. Plus I really dont care about capturing stuff, I just want to battle things.

I didn’t get my first CP1200 pokemon until level 18 lol

It seems that when you hit level 20, you stop getting lucky eggs, which is a bummer.

I had a pikachu as my buddy for a bit, and it would sometimes sit on my shoulder, I was hoping snorlax would to the same :D

I pretty much stopped playing. I was getting bored with it, so I switched to Ingress to keep me entertained while letting the kids Pokemon. Ingress is a lot more complicated and involves a lot more strategy. I find it more entertaining.

I don’t live near anything either. Though I found out some neighbors a few streets over, who are twice my age, live at a spawn point. Apparently they got dragonite that way. And gyrados. So....I’m super jealous.

I’m in the same situation, so when I go to work or head home, I hit as many stops as possible. I can usually catch Pokémon at the office. Today is a bit dry though...

zeontestpilot > chaozbandit 11/15/2016 at 09:23

I think I might of been in the same boat. Those low cp Pokémon don’t help in gym battles, :(.

zeontestpilot > MonkeePuzzle 11/15/2016 at 09:32

Yeah, I think the pikachu shoulder thing was a nod to the anime. Would be awesome though for snorlax to get a piggyback ride!

Yeah, I think Pokémon go deals heavily with the nostalgia factor.

I stopped playing and downloaded a Pokemon Yellow rom and GBC emulator on my phone instead. haha

I feel better off now. There is a spawn point in the backyard of a house behind us. We can usually reach it from our house. It had a Bulbasuar once.

You’re right about that. My son has been playing since he was little. My daughter was never as interested, so she started playing Ingress with me.

There’s nothing on my commute either.

Nice to see a few people here are team Valor.

Just recently started to evolve my Pokémon at level 27 and catching higher level ones. I’m probably the worst player because I mainly play at work. My desk job has me between 3 stops and my weekend job has me on a boat so I catch a TON of magikarp/distance.

I’ve only evolved 2 of my magikarp and am waiting to hit 1400 candies to evolve another one.

The 7 day streak thing is keeping it alive for me, plus wanting to get certain dudes which I pretty much all have now.

I don’t gym very much, but here’s my top whatever:

I bought Pokémon yellow for my 3DS. Got about 1/3 of the way through before I got busy with work again.

Yeah, I pretty much only play it when I’m taking a CPD. That’s a “company paid deuce” for you laypersons.

Takuro Spirit > MonkeePuzzle 11/15/2016 at 10:42

Pikachu is also the only one with an actual soundbite, unlike the 8-bit noises all the other ones make. Tap on him and he says his name.

Takuro Spirit > zeontestpilot 11/15/2016 at 10:43

I noticed that too. I had a Pikachu and Charmeleon at full CP then leveled up, and their max levels got higher.

Well that’s depressing.

That is a bummer because I got something like 30K XP out of that one lucky egg.

zeontestpilot > Takuro Spirit 11/15/2016 at 11:53

I’m starters, I think, are some of the hardest to get candies for.

You’re not the only one playing occasionally at work, lol.

zeontestpilot > for Michigan 11/15/2016 at 11:57

You can always buy more once you get coins from gyms. But if you keep catching Pokémon and evolving then, you can get exp that way too.

Takuro Spirit > zeontestpilot 11/15/2016 at 12:02

Yeah I don’t see a lot of Charmanders, Squirtles, Pikachus... I’ve only seen 4 and caught 3 of the latter. I “walked” nearly 170k with my Charmander buddy to get the Charizard. The Halloween bonus helped, as well as leaving the game on day and night at home and letting the GPS bounce me around 2-3k every few hours.

zeontestpilot > Takuro Spirit 11/15/2016 at 12:21

Ha, I love the bouncing gps...

Takuro Spirit > zeontestpilot 11/15/2016 at 12:35

I just wish it’d bounce me over to a Pokestop now and then...

I only need a handful of Pokemon but I just don’t see them despite playing more than I’d care to admit. So I’m easing up and playing a lot less. Deal with it Niantic .

The walking candy thing is getting me there slowly with the ones I have got. But Pikachu and Lapras are elusive as hell.

zeontestpilot > Nauraushaun 11/16/2016 at 06:12

Pikachu is elusive. But I’ve been seeing them and some others a bit more commonly now. Lapra would best be hatched from an egg though, a 10 km one.

Nauraushaun > zeontestpilot 11/16/2016 at 16:58

I’ve hatched hundreds of eggs! But it’s just not happening! I think my only option at this point is pay to win. Blue team has it easy - gyms&coins for days!
