Also just checked the IV of all my high cp pokemon, best IV I have is 63%, most are 50-55%. feelsbad

No big deal, unless it was something like a very high IV Eevee, none of the Pokemon you got before 20 mattered anyway, and neither do any of your eggs. Pretty much all of your evolve/upgrade worthy Pokemon will be from your eggs, once you've finished hatching all your pre-20 ones.

If you're interested in gym battling, the game doesn't even start until you're 20.

Haha Gavin you bastard you told me incubators were too expensive and would make you go broke!

PokeScanner app still works so fuck PokeVision and fuck Niantic.

yeah lol I'm not gonna use any at all the next few days to make up for it, but I wanted to go wild just this one time so I could take that picture. Not accounting for the bonus coins you get for purchasing large bundles, it costs 50 cents to hatch an egg, so assuming you're only hatching 5km eggs, that's 4 bucks per 5km of travel. Well over 100 bucks a month just going 5km a day, probably over 250 bucks if you go 10km a day. My long term plan is just to hatch 2-3 extra eggs per day, which is roughly par with a gym membership when you account for the bonus coins from larger purchases, and possibly an extra 30 coins a day if I can help my team start dominating the 3 gyms in town.

I see autistic nerds losing their shit over tracking, good riddance but they will be back.

Obviously they took the time to make the game bullet proof instead of adding/fixing non core features.

Yes, tracking is not a core feature. Most people are playing this at lure parties or walking between places. Having used a tracker for a few days on my PC searching medium frequency nests, I realised that egg hatching is optimal anyway. I was happy to buy 8 incubators yesterday.

Give them some time to fix tracking, it's obviously important but it isn't game breaking.

All gym money goes to incubators!. Well I first expanded my backpack a little, but yeah. Only other thing I would ever consider is lucky eggs if i had a million pokemons to evolve and no egg.

I'm approaching level 22 and I have not once used a lure party. If I could actually just roam around town using the footsteps feature to track down pokemon, that would be the only way I'd play when I wasn't looping pokestops to restock on supplies.

lol i hatched a 96%...Krabby today! woooo!

Some pokemon are just so fucking worthless because their CP is capped so low. This Krabby would make an absolute epic Kingler, except said Kingler would have like 400 less CP than my Vaporeon with slightly worse IVs.

That's assuming Google reports those accounts back to Niantic. And I know for a fact this is something they don't do with everyone.

Are there any other decent tracking sites now that poke vision is dead..?

Bastards should fix the 3 step bug before shutting down poke vision. Bullshit.

Why haven't you used a lure?

My point is that normal people are often playing a different way to harecore gamers so the outrage doesn't apply to the majority.

because you don't get exercise when you sit your ass down at a bench at a lure party here.

How does smoke work? Can I just drop that instead and then go for a 30 minute walk?
