No, pretty sure Incense is the only time you will see a Pokemon that others won't see. Normal wild pokemon are server based and everyone interacts with them the same way.
So who at Niantic do I need to bribe to give me better exclusive Pokémon in that case?
Close enough to have three Pokémon pop up, only one of them on the Nearby.

It refreshes every 10 seconds, so that's bound to happen
Won't stop until they reduce the refresh time
Personally the tracking system works fine for me, especially if I'm on a bike
This is accurate

The sightings system works just fine for me most of the time /shrugs
It is a place I arrive by car, after which I switch on the phone. It had just refreshed.

But that doesn't even explain his picture. Last time it refreshed to show Drowzee it should also have shown the other two Pokemon in that spot. And this also doesn't explain how a Pokemon will get dropped from my tracker as I get closer to it.

That might not be the best way to get started in this forum. Or any forum, for that matter.
Did they not end up ever showing up on the sightings list?
If so, then yeah that's fucked
They didn't show, not even after I caught the Drowzee. It is the easiest target so I started with that one.
You still play Pokemon? What are you, a kid?
My experiences with the 'sightings' tracker has been good so far. If I'm too far away from the Pokemon it leaves the tracker... if I'm close, it stays. Maybe even move up in a column. It needs footprints like at launch, or in decrease in meter count perhaps like in the trailer, but its been working pretty good for me so far. I'll really test it out this weekend when I go out for errands.
Yeah, dunno what to tell you
Only thing I can think of is lag due to sever load, but that's obviously still an issue that should be addressed
It's still not good enough. It's better but not as good as the original system when it actually worked.
It never worked
Been playing since day 1 and its inability to purge shit that despawned was annoying as FUCK. I'll take no footsteps in exchange for a system that purges Pokemon that are no longer there any day. And it does that well. I can watch a Pokemon despawn and its immediately removed from my list.
I'm excited for the incoming tracking update tbh
Guess so, why?

Yeah same
That initial hope that there's something new around the next corner has just been replaced with a sad voice in my head telling me there's probably no point taking that detour as the last five detours I took were just full of pidgey
I suspect we have all here been playing a LOT though so burn out isn't unexpected
Yeah same

Level 28 and still having a good time, but I have found myself more so focused on simply hatching eggs which is unfortunate
High IV and I like how random it can be
Mostly just like how they're consistently very high IV
Wild Pokemon suck, simple as that. Even if you do find a rare he probably has shit IV
There's exceptions, but eggs seem the way to go

As odd as it may sound I don't really see egg hatching as actively playing - I tend to keep the app running as I wonder around in my day to day life to hatch them though - even when I long tire of the game I'll probably continue to do so as there's no harm in it really.
I guess it helps I tend to have my phone constantly on charge at work or at home for this to work lol
I mostly hatch eggs while bar hopping late at night
Not really active playing but if I feel my phone vibrate I'll more often than not try to catch whatever spawned
Yeah it's working for me again. yes!

I find myself wishing they'd add 'chests' to the game. Y'know, those random loot drops you'd find in the pokemon games, preferably with their own tracker. It'd give me something to hunt when there's no interesting pokemon nearby,especially if it had exclusive items you don't get from pokestops, or items that are rare to get from them

That's what I'm saying it is
Of course just as I'm posting about how awesome eggs are I hatch this fuck out of a 10k egg ;(
Holy jeebus that candy total. So jelly...

Yep, both 10ks I have been lucky enough to get have been those lol.....working on my 3rd now. I expect more Eevee candy.

5 Pokeballs would be great.

I need some of that Stardust tho o.o
The IVs can be 100% analysed by several sites out there and the CP will be low, requiring tons of candies.
It'll just cost more resources to power up low level guys. I shoot for IVs and moves over CP personally.
Same here. You can always get more dust to power them up.

Needed one more bellsprout to have enough candy to evolve him, saw one with 90 seconds left on the timer and a rushed over and he didn't spawn
Good news is I found this guy around the corner 5 minutes later:]
Nice
now you can save to evolve him lolSaw a Machoke and Wartortle on my sightings, managed to track down the Wartortle quickly (and I actually caught it relatively easily too, was expecting far worse)
Couldn't quite find the Machoke and by the time I had a rough idea of where it was I was already dead tired from the humidity outside. Ah well.

Being level 16, I haven't played to the point of burning out but I'm just bored of the same Pokemon everyday.Yeah same

I use this:
There's also one for defense but now I can't find it.
And DPS
I use this:
What do the percentages below the recommend move sets mean? Percentage of how much better/worse they are?
Rygar 8 Bit
Jaguar 64-bit
took 2 days to get a new pokemon but got a victreebel today and puts me at 129 pokedex
