At least the Nearby feature is live in my region. Got a Dragonair just by following the dots to the Pokestop.

Figures the feature would get a glitch the same day it's made available in my area lol. Good that they're aware of it and working on it.
FFS where are my Dragonites with DB/DC

I've gotten two captchas in the last week probably because my phones GPS misbehaves when it doesn't have much RAM free. Sometimes I teleport a mile away for no reason.
Yesterday was probably the day I've walked the longest distance for this damn game I simply don't know why I keep doing this. My legs are on fire right now and they hurt sooooo damn much, especially my feet. But anyways, we finally got the new nearby feature here so as soon as I went out of work during lunch time, I went to different places of the city to test it... and I gotta say it's pretty neat! The "test of fire" of yesterday was a Snorlax that appeared on the radar, it indicated me the stop where it was located, it was a little far away from where I was walking so I accelerated the pace and when I reached the stop, the little Totoro appeared and I catched it. It felt nice. The fact that you still have the sightings feature when there's no Pokestops nearby it's nice as well even though you still have to use 3rd party scanners for those.
I also finally got enough candy to get Charizard and Poliwrath. 128 catched...
Alllsssooo, glad they are working to fix that annoying vibration bug everytime the nearby refresh. It was so annoying yesterday, the phone was vibrating like crazy and I had to look at the screen everytime.
Wow! You got soaked to hell but it was worth it, even if it doesn't have top notch IVs, withat moveset and that CP you can kick ass on gyms. Congrats!

The hardest part was trying to aim an ultra Ball curve on a wet screen.
Sure lags a lot.
I can imagine the tension on that moment. Having a powerful Dragonite in front of you, pouring in rain, and throwing precious ultra balls on a wet screen with the fear that Dragonite might run away after biking 5 km. DamSon.jpg
I caught a Snorlax 2 days ago heading to my buddy's house on their street... I was geeking out, and happy because I had not seen a Snorlax since early August. /tears
And I caught 2 dratini yesterday through Nearby... yesssss. I need about 13 more to finally get a Dragonite...

Exactly this.
The new tracker is growing on me. Can't see what's around but since I'm always on my bike it's been easier to get the specific Pokemon I really want.

My favorite is when the ball gets stuck at the top of the screen when it is wet.

Same goes for mr. Mime. But other than kangaskhan mr. Mime sucks.
I catch one from time to time just so I can hand some out if we ever get trading. But yeah, Mime is such a lame and weak Pokémon. We got the short end of the stick in the region exclusives.

Do we think there will be region exclusives from Gen 2 as well?
I am surprisingly hyped for tomorrow's news / update.

I can't remember if I asked before but has anyone else noticed a really garbage catch rate with the Go Plus? Seems like every time I press to capture, it'll roll 3 times and break out. It's really rare now to actually get a capture so I end up going into the game anyways to try.
With this new searching thing/maybe the release of Dittos, its back to having mostly Rattata and Pidgey on the nearby lists. They crowd around all of the PokeStops here with Oddish, Paras, Eevee and Venonat ;-;
I wouldn't be surprised if there was, especially like Elekid, Magby, Smoochum and Tyrouge or some of the babies in general. Maybe we'll get trading too though.

Probably.

I do actually think it would make more business sense for Niantic to release the next generation in waves rather than all at once. Release them like 3 a week with the rarity of Ditto.
That might make it a bit too easy to fill the Pokedex but it would probably sustain interest for longer than all at once.

lol the snark
It's almost impossible where I live, nowadays, even with the buffed prestiging. My gang and I took over 10 Level 10s last night but most were squashed back around 1am.
My record is and will always remain 40.
Seems like suburban non-yellow people are giving up. Every time a yellow gym is taking down, it immediately goes to lvl. 7+ in a few days. Just have to scour the area to train them or even better get a free spot. Some blue people are still being stubborn but they can't beat several lvl. 10 gyms in a row without exhausting their supplies. Instinct is like a well-oiled machine at this point.
My area is basically Mystic city. Which is good for me, since I'm Team Mystic. I tend to claim 5+ a day. I also stopped doing the claim every 21 hour thing, as I can better focus my efforts in the morning and gain an extra 3+ easy gyms on my way to work. Gained 4 or 5 gyms on Friday morning to claim 9 total.

My area's finally solid yellow again after the prestiging reversion. It's a beautiful thing. Now I just have to brave the Canadian winter to get myself back into some of them. I really need a thermos.

Nagoya. Finally got one in Ikeda Koen. All that hard work has finally paid off and Kamonegi (what a wonderful name) has a special place in my heart now.
Wow it's much faster and smoother now too. Going to have to battle some more.

Man I love the geodude nest outside our cafeteria. Caught 4 of them on my way to work. There are always at least two around when I pass by. Hope it stays like that then I'm gonna have a second Golem soon.
it's already 13/12 in NZ!Where are the news
Yeah it's pretty dumb of them to say 12/12 but then make it LATE 12/12 for US residents, given it will be overnight 13/12 (aka 12/13) almost everywhere else.
I'd be surprised if they don't try and squeeze it into 12/12 in the Sydney (eastern Australian) time zone... midnight is in 90 minutes from now. (This would also be 8am NY time -- pre-work, and 1pm London -- lunch-time. So a Niantic employee would only have to get up at 5am to post the info.)
