It won't allow you to place them until they're at full health, they won't show up as selectable.
Awesome to hear!
Remember though, losing weight is about diet. Exercise can help swing the balance a bit for you, but it all comes down to reducing calories.
this is coming from a dude who went from 300lbs to 180, no judgement!
Okay, i need some clarification everyone.
For catching pokemon, you want the circle to be the smallest possible, yes? Not the largest?
I just had a charmeleon run away, and despite using ultra balls and razz, and getting the circle almost perfect, I couldnt catch it.
WHHHHHYYYYY????

You have to actually land the Pokeball inside the colored circle. You'll get a "Nice, Great, or Excellent" message depending on the circle's size (smaller being better). If you still did that though then oh well, no clue.

Well that tracker thing is crazy. The second it becomes an app or function in a browser thats kind of it and kills the exploration.

Agree on this point. I still have the phone out on my daily walks, but it's no fun when I can't track down the pokemon that I'm looking for. They really need to get the tracking fixed.
Yeah but tbh. With the tracker bug at the moment it's no fun to go around and explore because you can't hunt anything down. It's pure luck to run into something useful.
With this Python programm you at least can get the PKMN you'd miss by playing the game normally.
It should be pretty easy to curtail. Just look up people reporting vastly different locations and ban them. Of course "should be pretty easy to fix" re things in this game don't usually lead to expected outcomes.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Well, it still ran away after I scored an excellent against it

I'm tired of playing pidgeymon go. The server issues are shitty, but I'm also not finding anything new to keep me going.

What does the blue circle underneath a Pokemon mean?

That's assuming people spoof, but if they stay locally and play right they should be fine.
even with "Excellent!" (not that I get it all that often) and razz berries they can still get out sometimes. It seems a lot like there is always some chance for one to escape. Without a Master Ball I guess. Not sure I have ever seen one escape after two high level balls though.

I did the math, and I only need to evolve about 150 Pokemon to get to level 20.*
Time to catch some Caterpie.
*I know I'll get a handful of levels by catching / hatching eggs while getting those 150 Pokémon.

Its frustrating especially since they can run away so quickly. The charmeleon i just encountered ran away after 4 or 5 ultra ball attempts, and I had a lot more to go but NOPE

But that's just part. Without obvious Gps spoofing a "trainer" app can level you up to whatever, just spinning stops every 5 minutes.. Or hatch all eggs by "wakiing". Or use an external database to reveal wherever X is and do a single gps spoof operation to get it. Or be a version of that wristband, but one that buzzes you only when you haven't seen a nearby Pokemon.
Niantic won't ban anything, or be able to detect anything. Any gameplay in gyms or pvp in future, will be totally subverted. Not that there is any sign they know how to do that part anyway..
Dang. Thanks guys. Not even one word eh? Damn. Balls crashing, servers weird.. worst for me is the paws. Well, I'm sure we'll hear something.
Someday.

So how does this thing that let's you see pokemon locations work?
French Pokemon Go players found the "wrong neighboorhood" haha.

I have 110 Drowzee Candy. I have a 360 CP Drowzee, and a 396 Hypno. Im debating if i should just level up my Hypno and use him for battles, or to to evolve my 360 Drowzee.
How much does evolving level the CP up?

In any case, yeah with the bug of the step feature, it shows how barebone the app can be. The socializing aspect of it is amazing (had a long walk with a friend by the beach, it's really fun) but by itself and without proper tracking, the app is either just dumb luck or just finding popular lured up spots and wait.
Arenas are really what I think to be not really fleshed out. They're kind of meat grinders and have little impact on the game overall
It asks the server where the pokemons are and puts them on a map for you to see.
It's an http server that uses google maps.

Does the size of your Pokemon matter at all?
Anyone ignoring specific Pokémons at the moment? Personally at lvl 20:
The servers have behaved fine for me today though.
- Zubat
- Drowzee
- Hypno
- Chowbat
- Spearow

Yeah I release XL and Normal and only train XS Pokemon.
You can't be a cute Flareon, Dragonite, or Vaporeon when you're fat.
just weedle, rattata and piggy as I am low on pokeballs.

You have to look at the semi circle bar in the background. When you evolve, the bar stays the same. To power up the bar you need to spend candy and stardust. In this case, I would trash the Hypno and evolve the Drowzee, since it will cost you a lot of stardust to get the hypno up to par.
Save your stardust for topping off the CP meter on already strong pokemon whose meter is almost full.

Is there any point in holding on to more than one of the same pokemon?

Hrm, yes. But let's say I wanted to try it out. Is there a tutorial? The only python I know is the snake.
You can use both in your lineup when attacking, and leave one in a gym while still having the other to attack, that's it.
to wait until they implement a mass transfer system because the transfer right now is really really tedious.

I've got an Arcanine that only weights 11.65 kg. I'm worried that he's anorexic.
Anything that I haven't evolved fully yet.......I catch
Other than that pidgey is the only Pokemon I stock. They seem to be the easiest to catch and give the most XP on evolve

I walked 1.2 kilometres with pokemon go in low power mode upside down in my pocket, the screen at no point turned off, and the incubators registered nothing...Does it have to be held in not-low-power-mode? Because that's a pretty huge turn off. Heck, the app shouldn't even need to be open, it should just use M8/M9 on iPhones.
