Paid Members quote the raven Posted July 10, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 I just got this. My nearest pokestop is a church a good 15 mins each way. Will have to take it to work see if there is somewhere else to get balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted July 10, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 You catch any Pokemon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted July 10, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 I caught a Jynx in Green Park yesterday. I understand that's a rare Pokemon. Has anyone found the game to be prone to crashes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 10, 2016 Author Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 I haven't seen a Jynx yet, but there were quite a few nearby for most of today around Hyde Park. I caught loads there today- including Ponyta, Staryu, Goldeen and the legendary MAGIKARP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted July 10, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 10, 2016 Crashes and connection issues all over the shop, but it's bound to as it's not even out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 GPS issues and the 1hp glitch are my biggest problems so far, hate trying to taking over a gym only for the opponent to get stuck on 1hp and fuck me over. I've noticed a HUGE amount of asian groups/pairs playing this in my city, and then they look over at my phone to see if I'm playing too.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted July 10, 2016 Moderators Share Posted July 10, 2016 How do you fight in the game? I had a fight and got totally dicked on, and stat wise I don't think my team was much off theirs, I just had no idea what I was doing.

Merzbow Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I just tap the screen rapidly to attack, if your special bar is full you can press for a second for special attack. There's something about swiping to dodge but I can't get the timing down for toffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted July 11, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Here's a helpful, if not long read on some do's and don'ts... https://m.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4rlnmc/some_tips_from_my_last_days_playing/ It seems your better off focusing solely on evolving the Pokemon to it's final form before you start powering up. Good to know. The 'turn phone upside down' battery saver is great. You still get vibrations! I've had so much fun with this today. As I mentioned the other day, my home location has very little going on in terms of stops, but my work seems like a hotbed. Went out in the car on my lunch and collected at 7 Pokestops without even needing to get out of the car! The closest gym (local works pub) is already Team owned, so I tried train there, but I got beat down. There was another bloke there who was quite obviously playing too. On the way home I had my girlfriend drive slowly through any Pokestops road side and I managed to grab a few things from each. This is way too much fun. Edit - Picking up Eevee's like nobodies business. They all seem to be like 170+ CP too. Evolved to a Jolteon for 25 candys which is a steal. Ended up with a base 404 Jotleon. Sweet. Apart from that my best is a 324 CP Butterfree (WTF?!) Pigeot at 304 Electabuzz at 269 Got a ton of Drowzee/Pidgey/Rattata awaiting evolutions too.

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted July 11, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 11, 2016 Fuck. I was powering up my guys before they'd evolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I've technically broken the law playing this now, had to get on to private property for some pokeballs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted July 11, 2016 Paid Members Share Posted July 11, 2016 Fuuuck. A Squirtle just appeared. I threw it a rasperberry and then trapped it, but it got out, then did a runner! Gutted I picked Bulbasaur at the beginning now too knowing that you can get Pikachu to spawn if you walk away from them a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 11, 2016 Author Paid Members Share Posted July 11, 2016 It seems your better off focusing solely on evolving the Pokemon to it's final form before you start powering up. Good to know. Really? That's surprising, IIRC in the original games the tip is to delay evolution as much as possible and level them up as much as you can first. Luckily I think I've been ignoring this and trying to evolve them as soon as I can anyway. A Squirtle just appeared. I threw it a rasperberry and then trapped it, but it got out, then did a runner!. You did what?! Where do you get raspberrys from?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 You'll randomly get them from spots, I've got a bunch of eggs from them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
