New event - and it's time for more Candy!
http://pokemongolive.com/en/post/valentines2017
I'm very happy with this because of the chance of a Chansey alone, to be honest.

I think if my timezones are right - just under 5 hours from this post.

2x candy from buddy and pokemon never mediocre. Esp the chance to find Chanseys.
My 61 Dratinis and I have been waiting for this event for a while now

Yeah, I need a Chansey, so I'm in
I need a Chansey so for that alone it is worth it. Double candy is also going to be awesome, I have like 4 10k eggs.
On some negative news I finally evolved my Magikarp after walking around 150km, ended up with Bite and Twister moveset. Atleast Im on 140 caught now.
Also the Gym system needs some major rework, leaving GPS spoofers and cheaters to one side, I always see the same pokemon in the gyms, Vaporeon, Dragonite, Snorlax, Gyarados and Rhydon. I think they can solve this by limiting each gym to contain only 1 or 2 max of each pokemon. Also the damage bonus/reduction from effective/non-effective attacks need reworking to make other pokemon more effective.

Aww, only 2x for buddies, not 4x again? 
Still, nice though. Cleffa is one of the last few Pokémon I need, so hopefully I can get one out of this. And extra buddy candy will get me ever closer to enough candy for a Dragonite... I still need 438.3 more kilometers as is, so I'm gonna try to milk this as much as possible. 219.15 is still a shit ton though...
Now I just need an Aerodactyl or Grimer event. ... whatever those would be.
And I guess this means no gen 2 with the nest swap tonight.

I'll always take more Chansey, but just last month I caught 3 in one week, I have more than enough candy for a Blissey evolution (assuming it uses candy) and I have a 100% Chansey.

They're reserving that event for the day Dolan defeats The Cyber.
Liking the event! Finally get a chance for a Chansey, and the double candy will be nice!
But anyways, today has been interesting so far. While checking the event's details, I decide to boot the game up to get my hourly house spawn (just a Drowzee). For kicks, I check my nearby, and I spot a shadow: a Dragonite! Despite being out of shape, I quickly put on my shoes and coat and full-on sprint out of the house. Naturally, I tucker out halfway there, but I soldier on, alternating between speed-walking and jogging the rest of the way. I get there and am greeted by a 1764CP behemoth. After a few missed throws, an Ultra ball lands and catches it! Poor IVs with Dragon Breath/Hyper Beam, but I'm too happy to care. On the way back, I find the last Abra I need for Alakazam! It ends up with Psycho Cut/Shadow Ball, bleh. And for the grand finale, an Electabuzz shows up behind my house. And the event hasn't even started yet, so I might still be able to get Chansey today! So two new dex entries, with a potential third on the way! Whew.

That would be fantastic!
Will the pink affect collected eggs as well? EDIT: Apparently it does!!!

Live in Korea, we just got the game a couple weeks ago. I played a bit in Sokcho (the only place it worked in Korea) and Japan before I read that you should save stardust, but I've been saving it since level 13 or 14.
When is it okay to start using it? Just hit 20 and it feels like leveling it taking a lot longer than it used to.

EG seems to think porygon is included

So we should likely see more
Clefairy
Clefable
Jigglypuff
Wigglytuff
Slowpoke
Slowbro
Exeggcute
Lickitung
Chansey
And perhaps Ditto and Porygon? I wonder about Paras/sect since their mushrooms are kinda pinkish. I was figuring they should have had the Nidos appear more too. Mr. Mime is pretty pink so I wonder if it'll appear more for our UK friends.

Kind of bummed it's so short, but Thursday and Tuesday are my PoGo days so I'm hoping to get lucky and get enough candies to get that Togitect.
My friends have been walking dratini for months now though.

It's live. Double candy and Lickitungs and Chanseys everywhere.
My pokemon box was actually 400. So every so often I'd have to increase it and constantly manage it.
I really only keep Pokemon I need. I also don't really try to catch pidgey's much anymore. Esp since I'm lv 31 and I had limited space.
But, since I have so much space open now, might start doing some lucky eggs every so often again.

That's what has me most excited. I just did a 70k lucky egg and hopefully this'll get me back up there to another one quickly.

Does anyone else use the Watch app? It's always ending the workouts I start after a short while.
