Exeggcute suddenly became extremely common where I live.
I still have a hard time finding 10km eggs. In the last two months, I've only gotten one.

Is there a good resource for nest locations?

10km egg: Scyther no. 3 *sigh*
Off to the next one.

It seems Niantic changed a lot of nests and added lot's of new pokemon in places where they never appeared before. Here on my city for example, the biggest lake around here used to spawn pure crap Pidgey/Paras/Sandshrew/Ratatta etc. , no nest or water type pokemon whatsoever, but now after the event, the lake finally become a Magikarp nest with several water type pokemon spawning as well such as Staryu and Horsea. Maybe I can finally get that damn Gyarados since Magikarp used to be rare af here.

I just got my 3rd Evee in a row from 10k eggs, don't feel too bad.
I so rarely get 10k eggs. Managed to hatch one today (just too late for the event), got a Lapras. Was so nervous it was gonna be a fucking Scyther or Eevee or something.
Also found a Kabuto nest! And barely any Kabuto. They were there on sightings but I couldn't actually find the spawns. Only caught two.
There was an Abra nest near my place. Now it's freakin' Oddish.

Is it just me or is meowth now very common?
It used to be uncommon-rarish, not too rare but also far from common.
Today and yesterday i have seen a lot of meowths.
Also i saw my first chansey ever yesterday and caught/saw a few rarer pokemon today (like magnemite, machop, geodude)
Nests also changed.
I think they tweeked spawns and spawn rates a little.
Others in this thread also reported more/rarer pokemon.
Plus the eevee now apparently being a 5km thing, seems like quite a lot of changes.

I mentioned it, GulAtiCa mentioned it, Red Fire mentioned it.Now that Eevee's out the 10k box, there's a bigger chance I can get my coveted PINSIRRR bitches

I just got two eevees from 5Km eggs, and two shelders, which is great because I still don't have a cloyster. Also, it had been mentioned a bit...
.
Shit yeah. Goddamn robot pokemon in your face.
Overall this was a great event for me. In the week that it went on, I gained the following:
Gained nearly 150k exp, enough to level me up to lv 28 and get me 1/3rd to lv 29.
Gained prob 100k stardust during this time (from hatching a lot of Pokemon and collecting on gyms 8 times in a week at usually 6+ gyms a day)
Hatched 5 10k eggs: 2 Electrabuzzs, Jynx, Omanyte & a Kabuto
I gained over 100 candies for Growlithe, about 18 from walking and rest from wild / nest.
I gained 7 for Charmander, enough to get my Charizard.
I walked 40km for Dratini and caught 5 in the wild, for a total of 72 candies. I'm now at 190 Dratini candy (I'm waiting for a good Dratini / Dragonair to evolve)
Also, for 1st time this past week I finally collected on 10 gyms at once! Now I've done it 3 times. If I still have all 10 by 1 am tomorrow, it will be my 3rd time in a row too.
Thanks to this event, I've decided to only transfer pokemon like starters, Dratinis, Growlithes, Exeggcutes, etc, when there is a double candy bonus event. So I'll be holding on to them.
I think overall I walked about 70km. Considering I normally I walk about 30km in a week, not bad. Esp since I apparently had Acute Bronchitis this whole time apparently. lol... (I went to doctor last night and got stuff and feeling better already)

Ok seriously. I keep checking fastpokemap and I keep finding jack shit. This is getting really frustrating. It seems rare/interesting spawns are literally non-existent in my area. I'm strictly finding top 10 Pokémon no matter where I search and no matter how many times I do it. This is really, really shitty. There is NOTHING spawning that I haven't caught at least 100 times, outside of the occasional Pikachu.

I can't for the life of me get a second Vaporeon and it's pissing me off. I've gotten a dozen Flareons and a half-dozen Jolteons, but just ONE Vaporeon.
Oh wow, professor Willow said more things. =p

That's another good change, too.

Supposedly Tauros is no where to be found in Miami but is found from Daytona Beach, onward. I'll test the theory out next weekend. =p

Well, Pidgey and Ratatta do actually seem a lot less common in my area... But every other common has just been bumped up it seems... Nothing actually new. Soooo.... Yay, more Sandshrew...? The egg stuff is good news though.
IntelliHeath
As in "Heathcliff"
I'm very happy with the changes however, I just realized that it's a subtle nerf toward to the EXP GrindFest.
Did a fpm sweep of my town and... nope. Still nothing but pidgeys, rattatas, weedles and spearows. The only ones not filtered on my scanner right now are poliwags. I'm guessing that this'll mostly apply to larger towns again.
The egg change is nice at least.

Name your eevee pyro. Since the name trick only works once, this may help increase the odds of getting one. Won't hurt to try.
OMFG thank you for doing those changes, Niantic! Just the past week during the Halloween event I hatched 2 motherfreaking Pidgeys and a Rattata. I was so pissed I wanted to throw the phone. THAT was the #1 reason I didn't spend real money on buying incubators and I'm glad I didn't but maybe I will now that those two useless 'mons no longer hatch from eggs!
Three friends from work found a Tauros in Gainesville.

Pidgeys and caterpies were already not as common here in West Hollywood/Central Los Angeles area. We get tons of Machops and Geodudes which are useless for spam mass exp evolutions.
At least Growlithes are relatively common and have tons of water Pokemon to take them down.

So it's gonna take two more years to complete tiny ratatas achievement.
clearacell

that may be the one thing that's gonna bug me about the change...having most every medal except for tiny rats. but I'm glad for the egg change that means higher chance of starters...the xp grind is taking a huge hit though, but maybe increases spawns of weedle and Caterpie will help mitigate that.

Ironically, I saw an increase of eevees today...
Got my first egg snorlax! Up to 45 candy!
Got my first egg onyx today too...
There's a level 33 user with a bunch of 2000+ CP snorlax that's been spamming the local gyms. I was taking one down that had a 2700+ CP snorlax as they were training it and left it at 500 prestige (since they would just take the gym back) so they would have to fight it to level the gym back up and see how they like it! I've taken their gyms down a dozen times with that snorlax in it.

Yep. Farfetch'd, Kangaskhan, Mr. Mime and Tauros are region exclusive. Respectively in Japan, Australia, Europe and North America.
Yes, South America, Africa, most of Asia and the poles are SOL.
I saw a farfetchd in hong kong disneyland last month. Didn't catched it as I don't have mobile data there.

Farfetch'd may include a lot more of East Asia then.

I dunno, those are still perfect fodder for evo levelling.
I want Farfetch'd. He looks cute. All I have are a bunch of Kangas:
why can the 82.22% one get to a higher cp than the 86.67 one
