lol I suppose it's possible that one of the 119 caterpie, 268 weedle, 626 pidgey, 380 rattata, or or 120 spearow I've caught could have been my first perfect pokemon, but I never appraise them.

I miss Pokeassistant doing all the work for us. The in game flavor text is a big step up from nothing but it was so nice being able to hit one button and getting feedback on everything in my library.

It looks like Voinovich Park is the place to be in Cleveland for catching stuff. Lots of Water Types (I still need like 75 Magikarps and as many Dratinis as I can get) along with other rare stuff. If the Labor Day air show wasn't going on I'd go there tomorrow and hit it up. Maybe I'll get out there one day later this week.

As a side note it still annoys the crap out of me that this thread title is not "Pokemon and how to catch them ALL with your phone." Just saying.

Can't Seaking have water gun?

Would you spend dust on a 100% Raticate?

Nope. Seaking is a single type water with flying/poison for tap attacks and ground/ice/bug for charge attacks. And no, I would never power up a raticate. Until they make some changes to type weakness/stab/whatever, the only pokemon that are worth powering up are solar beam venusaur, pound/rough wigglytuff, leaf/beam vileplume, chop/chop machamp, leaf/beam victreebell, c/p slowbro, zen/psychic exeggutor, zen/beam exeggutor, blizzard lapras, pump vaporeon, beam snorlax, breath/claw dragonite, and wing/pulse dragonite. I assume that if you got one you would power up a legendary bird regardless of its move set, zapdos being the best, followed by articuno and moltres. No clue on whether Mew/Mewtwo are powerful enough that you'd power them up regardless of moveset or whether you'd only power one up with a psychic charge move.

Scored 6 gyms this morning. Yay for Mondays with light drizzle coming down.

Also caught a 50 and a 57 cp diglet yesterday, are these any good for bubblestrat?

I have a 98 IV snorlax I hatched but it's Zen/Slam, I ended up leveling it, only had the 1 hatched one and a shitty like level 8 one I caught that's shit IV/Moveset. Will likely be my buddybro too. It took something like 15 or 17 or so evolved to get a pump vape, but he's mid 90s so he's legit. I have a 99 vileplume, but he's leaf/petal, I'd probably level him if I had a better source of Oddish Candy, just to kill stupid enemy vapes since I have shit for grass other than eggz which i have one with a good move set that's shit IV, and a mid 90s one that I evolved, but has Seed Bomb. I really wish I'd just get a couple of things to evolve with the good movesets!

I would absolutely not level anything but solar beam on a grass type. Just be patient. And yeah zen/slam snorlax is probably good enough to power up too.

Hit the Zoo today to restock. While I was there I was able to pick up another Dratini which means 10 more to go for a Dragonair... Long way to go but it's a project of mine.

I also hit 200 Magikarp candies! Another project of mine...

I also maxxed out my 90% Vaporeon. I know a lot of people would have wanted a higher 90's to spend dust on but my thinking is that it's hard enough to get a 90% Vaporeon as it is (Find a high IV Eevee and then have it evolve into a Vaporeon with Hydro Pump). That gives me two Hydro Pump Vaporeons.

And today was the first day I was able to cash in on more than 1 gym. I cashed in on 2! Double the coins!

My Lick/Bodyslam Snorlax feels so weak on attack. I'd much rather use a Dragonite or Exeggutor, or even a Gyarados.

Number of Lapras when I am in Odaiba: 0. Number of Lapras when I'm not in Odaiba: 3. Feels bad man. At this point I'm frustrated enough to take a week off work, buy a tent, and just camp there.

Please post if/when the patch hits in the US, and if it has the buddy system in it.

I love getting free coins, but I have to be rational with myself when it comes to taking gyms. If it costs me 30 minutes of my time, if I just worked that time instead, that's enough money to get 2500 coins.

I'll take them if they're not out of my way, but other than that, meh.

Not only did I just hatch my third fucking Eevee, but it's the second one I've hatched that didn't even have 80% IVs.

Rustled level: Significant.

I'm not sure what the actual definition of a nest is but I think I'm in the middle of an Eevee nest right now. From my house I can see about 8 spawn points on my radar. 4 or 5 of those points have been spawning Eevee's regularly. I'm seeing 2 or 3 different ones an hour. I was excited at first because I needed the candies for my own Eevarmy but I'm good now. It was fun for awhile but now it's just too much hassle to be jumping out of the house every 20 minutes to catch the latest one.

I've hatched more Eevees than all other 10's combined, and we're talking like 30+ eggs. So dumb.

Aside from region-exclusives and 2 grimers needed to obtain a Muk, I'm down to Chansey and Porygon. I have literally scanned hundreds of square miles and sat said scanners down upon large swathes for days at a time to record spawns and I have yet to find a Chansey or Porygon in the Houston region that has not spawned from a lured Pokestop in two very specific places -- Pleasure Pier in Galveston (once and it's an hour away) and Discovery Green (twice, and PoGo players are banned there at both times I've seen it spawn) hence I've got to acquire the Chansey from a 10km and a Porygon via 5k (1/40 chance).

Quite dumb indeed.

Would you be irritated if I once again mentioned that I caught a Chansey in my back yard a few nights ago?

I've popped two Chanseys and two Porygons out of eggs and I've seen so many Chanseys in Odaiba that I no longer walk to go and get them.

I wil trade you for a Lapras or Lickitung :p

If trading comes out anytime soon, that's a bet.

Hatched a 2 and my first 10km egg today.

Bulbasaur and Eevee... kinda balances out, eh.

Is the pyro rainer sparky trick actually working? I don't want yet another Flareon
