Pokémon Go |OT| As in "Go Outside"

The game crashes as soon as I click on a Pokemon to switch to the camera. Great stuff. So much Pokemon Go for me I guess :P
 
Anyone else feel so much fitter even after just a couple of days of use?

I've been on a diet for a couple of months now, but put on 3 pounds over last weekend, as it was my birthday and I had a binge. I've since lost all of that 3 pounds, and a tiny bit more. And that's even with having finished leftover birthday cheesecake the last few days.

The last two nights, I've taken three-hour walks. And that's in addition to going for a walk in my lunch hours, and walking to and from work whereas I would normally drive.
 
I'm still struggling to reach 10 D: praying my mass evolution/xp potion strat will help. I don't live or work near areas with easily evolved pokemon tho. I've got 1 pidgey and 1 weedle.
Take your time. :) Especially if you don't have a PokeStop dense area. The higher you get, the harder the Pokemon are to catch. It's easy to burn through Pokeballs sometimes.

That said, if you're into capturing gyms. Being a higher level is key so you can catch high CP Pokemon.

Either way, you'll get there!

Great work man. Keep it up!


Well I'm certainly tanner. :P
Jealous.

Just collect the candy from street trash pigeons and rats and evolve a bunch at once while using a lucky egg. You'll fly through levels at 1000xp a pop.
 
My Eevees just won't stop being Jolteons.

do cp ??? pokemon disappear later in game

ive stopped seeing them completely yet run into +1500 cp pokemon

CP: ??? means that they have a higher CP than any Pokemon you currently own. Once you start leveling stuff, that becomes quite unlikely, I don't really see Wild Pokemon with a CP of much more than ~40 x Trainer Level very often.
 
So I got a snorlax from my 10km egg and couldnt be more happy until i saw that his base move is "Lick"... Am i fucked? Against normal pokemon that is.

Id like to know before boosting him.

No there's no doesn't affect in this game. Just super effective or not very effective. Lick sounds good as he will be super effective against all the Hypno and Jynx
 
Could an iPhone user in the UK who downloaded it from the US via a US Apple ID please confirm that if I can delete the app, redownload it with my UK Apple ID, I can simply log in with my Gmail account and not lose anything?

Posting this again, as though two people have said it's fine, until I hear from people who specifically say they've done this themselves, I don't want to take any chances. The two people who replied didn't actually say if they've done this personally, so I don't know if they're just speculating or not.

Thanks!


EDIT: Never mind; saw somebody on Reddit specifically say they did it personally, and had no issues. Leaving this here in case anybody else might have the same question!

I just did this.

Deleted the Australian app. Downloaded the UK app. Logged in using my Google account (which is what I used on the Aus app), and everything is as it should be!
 
Is there any way to move the map so that I can see what's in the surrounding area?

For example, I'd like to know what's in my town centre before I get there rather than walk round aimlessly.
 
Is there any reason to delete the American version of the app or is it just out of caution and future proofing?

Im in a quandary, im mystic but all around me are red gyms - I don't know if im making the game much more difficult by being blue or if I should switch to red now while it's still early days

What do people think?

Did the same only with the US to UK app (IOS). Signed in with my google account and my game save data reloaded just fine.
 
Revives are weirdly unhelpful.
I throw a lot of them away for bag space.

Maybe because I spend more time reinforcing my own teams Gyms than attacking others.

On iPhone, you can't download updates unless you're logged into the same Apple ID you downloaded it from. So it's worth downloading the UK version, otherwise you'll need to switch between Apple ID's ever time there's a new update.

Unless something has changed very recently, you can't change what team you're on.

My bet is that you want to be on the team not very common in your area. You get more EXP for beating enemies than you do for training friendly gyms, and frankly nobody can actually hold gyms in the long run anyway; all you need to do is a good run at a time when nobody else is active, capture as many gyms as you can in a short period, and then hit the rewards button.

The only issue I had was having to swap app store sign in details to be able to download updates.
 
this game need another 3-4 micros.
stardust and range increase

for example:

500 coins to add 5% range.
900 coins to add 10% range.
and it's goes on,of course there is limit to maximum range,and sometimes there is an item to double the range for 30 minutes.

also an incense to lure certain type of Pokemon.

absolutely
there is no real need to buy new bags, just throw away the revives
everything else can be used all the time

I think the microstransactions are super fair right now
this range increase would not be, that would be a huge advantage
range should increase with player level or maybe some prestige system that is added later depending on how many gyms you conquered and defended
but not with real money

Being able to burrow down and hold the gym would earn Pokecoins and stardust though which is why I am tempted to move towards the popular team

That said it would be a huge shame to start from scratch at this point so I may hold off
 
Finally took down the gym down the street. The dodge mechanic makes taking down Pokemon twice your level trivial. Most abilities are easy to dodge. Once I knocked out the 1980 CP Vaporeon, it was a breeze to take out the Exeggutor.

One of the guys took the gym back within 20 minutes though. At 4AM, wtf? I took it back, lol.
Any tips on dodging? Can't seem to dodge anything
 
A french community tried to make an event but had to cancel it because authorities told them "NO".
The reason why they contacted them it's because of the amount of replies: 6K. So the french community though that a large amount of people may come (more than 500 people) so for safety reason they asked official permission to hold that event.

But let's be realistic, I doubt that even more than 100 people would've participated. So no need to call the authorities for that and for what ? hunt in a park like place...so a public area
 
Ok, I swapped from the US app to UK on IOS about an hour or so ago and the game generally seems a lot snappier for me, the images on the Pokestops load instantly and the gps movement on the character seems to be more settled too.

I'm on an iPhone 6S+

Thing is, the game hasn't even been released officially in France, which means an event like that in a week should be even much bigger. And yes, at least a thousand of the people confirming would have come, since for all the people who wouldn't have come, there'd be some who would without have confirmed it on Facebook.

I don't know because Wachington facebook group did the same and there were less that 100 people showed up in the end, last week. That's why I doubt that France would have been able to gathered 1K people when the app isn't release officialy like you said.
 
Finally made it out to Chicago, and the difference compared to my town is staggering in the volume of Pokéstops and Pokémon variety.

Already caught 4 new ones, and that was just going up Lakeshore and Montrose. Plenty of others that were out of range too.

Gary, IN might be good to hit during a Railcats game, since most of the Pokéstops are concentrated around that area. I wouldn't recommend leaving that area though on foot.

I hope one of these events never becomes a target for something more sinister. I think the cops are afraid of that too.

This shocked me when I actually saw a ??? CP, at Lv 20, turned out he was a 1100 Nidoking.. what a beast.
 
Downloaded this last night after it started working on N - I'm enjoying it so far (only at level 4 currently) but I have one question regarding evolution - if say a Pokemon takes 28 candies to evolve, and catching one gives 3 candies, does that mean I have to catch 10 of that same Pokemon before I can evolve one?

I guess this would explain why Pokemon I'd already caught were appearing again, I wondered why I'd want to catch them again so I imagine that's the reason? What happens to the other 9 Pokemon once one is evolved? Do I just send them somewhere so they don't take up space?
 
My best Pokemon is something like 301 which isn't great at all when all the local gyms are 700+

You can transfer Pokemon to the professor for extra candy

Is that why my Pokemon come out with 1 HP? Because I'm reinforcing? Okay, that makes sense. But yeah I haven't gotten too much use out of revives either.
 
War at work over a local gym nearby....so much fun for such a little thing :p
Thing is retaken by the other factions every 30 minutes :p
 
What level are you guys around and when should I start actually leveling up my mons? The gyms around me have like 1000+ and I only have like 2 600 cp pokemon. I'm level 12

Swipe when you see the screen edge turn yellow. For special moves it depends on the move. I usually just spam dodge if the enemy uses a special move. Some Pokemon seem to have an easier time dodging than others too. My Golbat/Pinsir are a lot slower than my Eeveelutions.

Also, enemies always do 2 attacks at the start of every battle. So be sure to dodge twice at the start.

Basically what I like to do is. Wait for the yellow glow, dodge. Attack once or twice. Dodge again, repeat until I can use a special.
 
I know this is the most stupid question but I'm paranoid about this stuff. If I delete my AUS app and install the UK one, all of the Pokemon are cloud stored, right? I'll just be able to log in and continue. (PTC login, if that makes a difference).
