I caught a 100% Eevee while taking down my daily gym. The bad news is she's level 7. I'm betting she turns into a Discharge Jolteon.

Well that sucks but I'm sure as hell still going to buddy up Lapras. Where the hell else am I gonna get Lapras candy? Lapras is still by far the best pokemon to buddy, followed by Snorlax, Jigglypuff, Exeggcute, and Bulbasaur. Dratini candy is 100% not worth it since you're looking at 625km just to evolve to Dragonite, and that doesn't even cover powering up. At 1/3/5km per candy, nothing else is worth it unless you're desperate to finish a pokedex entry.

*edit*

Also, lmao at anyone dumb enough to buddy up an Eevee. I'm sitting on 2000km worth of Eevee candy and another 4250km worth of Eevee candy spent on Eeveelutions.

Btw, maybe it was only me who read it wrong, but Wigglytuff didn't lose Play Rough, only Jigglypuff did.

2km Eggs (except starters) are 1km/Candy
5km Eggs and Starters are 3km/Candy
10km Egg Pokemon are 5km/Candy (Including Eevee and Dratini)
Is Pikachu a starter for this?

I think I'll start walking my weepinbel, just 20 more candies for the evolution there and I need far more to max it out.

No Pikachu is 1km/candy.

That's weird, you can pick him as a starter. Doesn't matter much since Raichu is trash. The only good Gen 1 electric type (in Go) is Zapdos.

Very few electric types will be good in Go because they have a tendency towards high speed and low hp, which translates poorly in the conversion formula. There are a handful of electric types that should convert into top tier battlers scattered through future generations though.

Gen 2 - Ampharos

Gen 4 - Electivire, Luxray, Magnezone

Gen 5 - Eelektross, Stunfisk

Gen 6 - Mega Ampharos (Manectric is from Gen 3 but both Manectric and its mega translate poorly to Go)

Anyone else having their GPS go crazy since installing the update, my town runs all over the place sometimes even miles away, which is nice for racking up km while sitting around buck socks when you are next to a stop or gym and can't reach it.

Do not get the AKP, I tried it, it worked for one gym, then I got an error later and couldn't log back in until I got home and downgraded back to 0.35

Still don't have the patch here either. I'm taking tomorrow off work so if there's no patch I'm gonna be sad.

2 Lickitung just spawned nearish my house. I had 12 minutes to get to the first one, about a km away. Just barely managed to get dressed and get out of the house on time to waddle my way there and catch it.

Second one then spawned on the far side of Kanda station, too far to get, but easy to get if I was still at the house. I guess it was my night.

Leaves me with 3 pokemon left to get. A Lapras, 20 more candy for a Muk, and 9 more candy for a Raichu.

Just got back in and there was a Lickitung, a Jolteon, and a Wigglytuff all up at the same time. I could have gotten to the Jolteon or the Wigglytuff, maybe even both, but I didn't wanna go right back out. Ordinarily I'd bust ass to catch a Wigglytuff, but having a slow morning.

20 more candy for a Muk

19 more Grimer candy than I need :p
