I assume people are using the nearby tracking websites.

You basically have to cast as wide a scan as possible for as long as possible (24/7 ideally) and be ready to drop everything and go get it once you see it (or set up notifications). This is all best done with desktop apps, obviously.

2 months later and finally found my first Grimace Grimer!

twitter feed and a full tank of gas. snorlax spawns pretty regularly in my area and so does dragonite...you just have to be ready for it. Lapras, however, is like a no show around here, the only two I have were hatched this morning and I've been playing since July 7th.
if I really wanted to, I could have set up shop every night at the Santa Monica pier every day at 2 AM and by now I would have like 20 Lapras and 20 Dragonites, but there's no way I'm gonna do that. I've seen some people that do though, and they are literally at the pier or the long Beach pike here in LA pretty much every night in the middle of the night.
Me and my brother went Pokemoning in downtown Charlotte tonight before the baseball game, and we bought caught 11 or so Clefairy. It was pretty insane.
I also caught a 1299 Nidoking with my last Poke Ball.
...and then Blanche said it sucked ;_;

So why are phones still freezing when you encounter a Grimer / Muk?
Thought they were gonna fix that with an update.

lucky 10k's maybe? I'm level 26 and I've ran into a grand total of 2 wild snorlaxes. a CP 323 which I caught, and one that was almost 1900 which ran away
all my 10k eggs have been awful. no snorlax, no lapras, no aerodactyl. meanwhile my wife has hatched 3 snorlaxes

I have 2 Perfect IV Snorlax. One from an Egg, one in the Wild. The only 2 Snorlax I have.

It's a bit overwhelming if you don't know what you're looking at, but for what you want, what you want to do is sort by name (column G) and find your pokemon. The information you want is in columns B through E.

I have a personal radar set up on my home PC that is scanning spawn points within drivable distance from my house. If something that I want spawns, I get an alert.
Alternatively, people in some cities have set up automatic twitter feeds for rare pokemon so you can get notifications on your phone. For instance, downtown LA: https://twitter.com/PokeDTLA
You can google reddit + pokemon go + your location to see if there is something similar in your area. Of course, you have to less than 15 minutes to drive to the spawns. But please don't look at the phone while your car is moving. No pokemon is worth an accident

Found 2 10km eggs on the way, today was a good day.
No Eevee please :v

yeah we wouldn't need these feeds if there were a better way to get candy. glad the next update may remedy that, it can sometimes get dangerous beca use people are looking at their phones and not driving. when I'm with the group I have people with me and someone is holding my phone
I finally reached level 20 lol. Now I'm lining up my evolutions so i can efficiently use my lucky egg! I'm positive I'll have enough time to evolve more than 60 pokemon.
I'll soon have enough coins to purchase something. The only two useful items for me are the lucky egg and the incubator. The way i see it is that they are both good for different goals. The lucky egg for leveling up, and the incubator for hatching more eggs and getting a larger variety of pokemon. So we'll see, not sure what I'll get yet.

Holy shit, I just had the most incredible luck today in Pokemon Go.
I got my fourth 10 km egg yesterday (the first three hatched Electabuzz, Jynx and Scyther), and was putting in the kilometres this afternoon to hatch it. As I reached the 10 km mark and saw the "Oh?", I braced myself for an Eevee or an Onix...but got a Snorlax instead! Woo, stoked!
Not long afterwards, I checked the "Nearby Pokemon" list and saw another Snorlax!!! I managed to track it down, and caught it in a single Ultra ball throw. o_o It was CP 1813:
I caught a few other really good Pokemon today too, like the Arcanine up there. Jesus...the highs and lows of this game. I think this one day has just about made up for all the bad luck Ive had while playing it recently!
The best part was actually being able to help other people to get the wild Snorlax. After I caught it, I spotted a guy hurrying along the street while staring fixedly at his phone. I walked up to him and asked: "Are you playing Pokemon Go, by any chance? Chasing a Snorlax?" He said he was, sounding a bit anxious. I then told him exactly where to go to get it. He looked so happy. I really love the teamwork aspect of this game.

She/he's a good offensive pokémon if she/he has Hydropump and a bad defender even with the right moves. Still, her/his high CP helps if you want to occupy higher places in the gym's hierarchy.
Give her/him Bubble and then we can talk about it again.
Obscuritas
Member
She/he can be a decent defender with confusion/hydropump and a decent offensive pkm with water gun/hydropump.

Hatched a Lapras yesterday, so I was pretty happy. Later that day a Blastoise spawned by a lure just before I walked into a movie and fled after 3 throws - pretty sour about that still.

Evolved my 3rd Gyarados just now and i got Twister ;_;. The first 2 are Dragon Pulse. When can i get Hydro Pump now ;_;

She/he's not that good anyway, don't torment yourself until they give her/him a better fast move.

no, cp cap on Golduck is so low. wait until you get a slowbro, he does the same thing as Golduck but waaaay better.
Woot, this guy was waiting for me at the train station. No crash!
Also missed out on a Porygon, since I was stuck at a lecture. ����
Still waiting for bugfix.
Seen grimer 5-6 times and always crash.

Does that one search thing still work that was posted here before? Tfw I don't have a searching thing anymore and I feel like I'm missing stuff ;-;

See, I got him yesterday, but it crashed my sisters phone every time he popped on the Map.
How is that not fixed yet? =/
Yesterday was crazy for me. My wife wanted to get a few gyms, but as we were driving we found a blue guy had a ton of gyms at level one. We must have gotten about 6 or 7 free gyms. I killed a few more easy ones and boom, easiest 10 spot of my life. Also managed to catch the last abra I need for alakazam. Up to 131 and the breakdown is so easy, 5 level 2 evolutions, 5 starter evolutions and snorlax. If I hatched anything other than staryu I'm sure I would be higher
Thanks for the reply. I won't spend anymore stardust on Golduck.

Ahh, crazy. Yeah Spearow is super common here. Still haven't seen a damn Magnemite anywhere =/

If you get an appraisal that's on the low end (e.g., "Overall, your Pokemon has room for improvement as far as battling goes."), is it possible to power up enough to change that to a better appraisal? I understand IVs don't change from evolution, so should I just turn such a weak pokemon to candy?
Lee Chaolan
Member
Nope, and yep.

Perfect, thanks!
So knowing that, I think the latest update that added the appraisal feature is a lot more substantial than most people give it credit for.

Is their a way to look cp caps up? Still holding back most of my stardust. Lvl 22. Looking forward to Nidoking and Queen.
