Helps when people put weird pokemon on gyms like jolteon, since barely anyone has water pokemon and everyone has geodudes
Easy to beat pokemon even if they have 500CP more

what are the predictions, if you switch from there to the official app will you keep your progress?

Is there a way to change the language of the game? My game is currently in german, but I already know all the german names and this would be a good opportunity to learn the english names.
Pretty likely, I imagine your progress / purchases etc will be kept server side. Otherwise it's much more open to abuse.
I believe it checks with a server to load your save data. If you login with the same account it should restore all the data between versions and devices.
Perhaps you need to change the phone language to English? As I see no other option for language.
Yes
When the app is officially released you also automatically get the app listed on your Play Store and will get updates / etc

Living in a new subdivision sucks. There is absolutely nothing around. Hopefully when I go to the city on Saturday I will have a better experience.
Has anyone verified this? As in logging in with different accounts from different regions and still retaining all their pokemon?
A German politician tweeted this. The game is not officially out yet in Germany btw.
He's happy he caught Charizard.

From what I gather, 2 stage or just generally powerful (in the game) Pokemon jump quite a bit when you evolve them, so leveling them up before going for the evolve will make them go up drastically.
Though, going by that same system, you can make some 3 stage pokemon really shoot up as well. It varies a little bit. Like Pidgie vs Caterpie
Yes hyperbeam is 70 :
Well damn! That's good
Yeah, it's tied to your google account. I can keep my progress between different devices.

This game is making me get a tan. I did my usual gym (as in real-life, weight training gym) routine yesterday, but instead of doing cardio on a stationary bike at the end, I decided to walk around campus to hit up some PokéStops. Only had time for a 1 km walk, but it was like 90 F outside at that time and super sunny. A few weeks of this and I'll be tan as hell.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I've walked a million miles past tons of Pokémon and haven't gotten a prompt to catch any... Pinser, those egg guys, oddishes and eevees..
You got to tap them when they appear.

Is there any benefit to signing in with a Pokemon Trainer Club account?

have you actually done that with the inofficial apk? because I read that it didn't work for some people, others have reinstalled it and it didn't keep the progress. could be BS but I am looking for confirmation.

Tap what where? The interface hasn't changed or anything, just says I'm no step, a step or two steps away from things
Nah, APK works

there's something I don't understand, if I'm looking for a pkmn from the radar, he can only appear by the streets right? or he can show up inside someone's house/garden?
When you're very close to a Pokemon, they will appear on your map with a sound effect.
You then look at the map, locate them and tap to attempt a capture. All the 'nearby' thing does is show you a general distance from X pokemon, it's not a hard measurement. But if one says zero pawprints, that means you're right on top of one and it will likely spawn in a few seconds in your circle.
When its 0 steps away open the tracker and select that Pokemon
That should make it appear

Man, I went from 180 pokeballs down to 30 last night. I went from an area that had a ton of Pokestops, but no Pokemon to an area that had a ton of Pokemon and only a couple Pokestops. It also appears that the Pokemon escape and evade the balls more often at higher levels...even the really low level ones.
I'm playing it via apk just fine and I've seen others do the same here in Germany.

Has it been determined whether or not increasing a Pokemons CP before evolving it has any benefit to the CP count of the evolved Pokemon?
Spiritreaver

The only thing that irks me about this game is there's no normalization for levels or CP. This game is a MMO in good ways and bad. People that either, shell out money for Lucky Eggs, or play nonstop will be a higher level and thus have much higher CP Pokemon at their disposal.
It really makes getting into the PVP aspect of the game rough, especially if you don't play often. I can deal with gyms being like this, but if they add normal battling I hope they look into adjusting Pokemon growth somehow.

WTF? now I am losing a lot of pokeballs when I throw at pokemon. Like they fall short or is too long of a shot. I am level 8, did not have any problems until recently after I leveled up. WTF?

Almost all I see on gyms around here are high level Vaporeans and Pidgeots.
yeah I'm only using the "inofficial apk", but really it's the official apk, it's the same apk after all.
Is there one for Team Valour?

Also, a Drowzy just turned up in my bed all excited.

From rock types Zapdos takes x2. Moltress and Articuno both take x4.
Managed to capture the highly contested Edinburgh castle. 
I'm guessing this will last a whole 30minutes. I was standing against the wall with a team Red player next to me and he managed to bring down the previous level 3 team holding it (I was actually on my way there to re-enforce them as they had a open spot). I ninja'd the neutral castle from him. He fight off mine... rinse... repeat.. I fought him a couple of times. He walked. War is dirty.

Oh yeah, I forgot. Electric take double from ground moves, not rock, right?
