Is there any other way to heal your Pokemon other than using potions and revives?

Evolving it, but that's it currently.
I think the last option is evolving them, IIRC.
No idea if it's related, but I was trying to catch a higher CP level Pidgeot yesterday. Fed him a few berries and then my Pokeballs started going off to the left and right direction. It was like he was gusting them away. I got one ball to stick, but it was in a very specific, super tiny area. I didn't end up getting it.
They really should put out random Pokestops that doesn't have anything to do with Ingress. I doubt Pokestops require a ton of graphical resources. Make them mini Pokestops and place them randomly out on the map. Make the mini Pokestops only pop out half the items a normal Pokestop would. So instead of 4 Pokeballs you would get 2.
This is what my map looks like unless I feel like driving 20-30 minutes in either direction.
Levelling can revive a mon, but to fully heal without items you have to evolve it.
baka XD
Honestly that's not much. I had a 400+ jynx by level 6. Maybe I got lucky with a random spawn tho?

The two gyms near me are above 1000. Getting 400+ CP Pokemon really doesn't take long. Just catch everything you see, go for a good walk where there are Pokestops to grind and turn in duplicate pokemon for candy to evolve and power up.

There's a free app you can download called Stay Alive! that will let you choose apps to force open. I chose all my games to never time out. The app stays open in the background most of the time but sometimes i have to exit out of my game and re-open it because it wasn't working. Still a super easy fix, though.
I got a 130CP something :|
Well it would be all sweet and dandy had there actually been anything close to me but that one gym. Even that is long walk or driving distance (5min drive).
I got quite the few pokemons but no way to get balls without purchase.
Sadly as soon as i exit the city line its all dead.
:|
And work is just teasing me with all those just out of range areas
They should really add some more stops at random on the maps.
Just curious - are you on team red?
Yes...is that the issue? lol
My Girlfriend and I went down to the park last night and it was unlike anything I've ever seen. There were probably at least a thousand people there playing this. There's like 10 Pokestops and a bunch of gyms along Tempe town Lake. All the pokestops were lured and people were just walking from one end of the walk to the other.
People of all backgrounds were cooperating and yelling out where the good pokemon were and people that obviously aren't used to exercising were getting it. Was a great time.
There were so many people I was actually surprised to not see any cops, not that any were needed.

This one got me pretty bad
There's no way to tell what Pokemon is where, right? Like, this doesn't make sense to me even as a joke. If a person knows a Pikachu is somewhere, they can catch it because they're looking at it on their screen already. One, two or three footprint symbols means nothing to me when little leaf shoots are popping up all over the place.
Actually, you can follow the steps to pinpoint most of them exactly.
The joke actually doesn't work because multiple people can see/catch the same 'mon on their respective phones.

I've had this experience with a high CP Pidgeot as well.
Didn't the last version of that meme have Rhydon?
Please no. I just joined Valor :|
I've seen it with Growlithe too. Same text each time, down to the all caps. Just the pokémon replaced. It's how the internet works.
Game still won't let me log on.

You have 6 pokemon to whittle it down. You only need to defeat one pokemon to lower the prestige of the gym. You can also team up with other players of your team and fight it together. You can do it!
I'm not sure. I ran into two trainers yesterday while I was on a bike ride. We were chatting and they asked if I was gym leader of anything. Told 'em I was blue team and I hadn't had any issues. They said they were both red and had encountered that bug several times. There are LOTS of blue gyms around me, but not as many red. Maybe it has something to do with the red team? I have no idea. I was just curious.
Yeah I'm guessing it's just because it was a higher CP and the longer the encounter went on, the harder it got maybe.
Game hasn't launched here in Mexico yet and I already saw three different guys playing GO! while walking for work this morning. Pokémon is very popular here so I'm sure game is going to be massive here once it launches officially.
Edit: And my facebook feed is filled with tons of desperate messages of people asking how to get Pokémon Go early. People who never thought they knew or cared about Pokémon...

Oops, tempest3 is right, I got my info mixed up. I haven't noticed any real difference when catching them, probably for stronger pokemon it is more important.

Is there any way to calculate roughly how much of a CP increase you'll get when evolving?
Also is it based on your current trainer level?

Yes. Pokémon are found everywhere but are more common in areas that have dense clusters of smartphone users
This is my thought as well. Personally I haven't felt like the change in size has done anything significant.

I had the bug constantly up until yesterday and I'm on the blue team.
Just had this happen to me with a Charmander (164CP, orange circled). Only had 14 balls, so it got away.
I think you need to treat it as a game you play every now and then when you are in a populated area and just open the app, mess around for 5, and then close it. It's not Destiny or The Division where you have to reach max level immediately, or farm all day. Take it from that perspective and just enjoy it when you are in populated areas. Take a walk during lunch.
Thanks man, do you have a link for that? Can't seem to find it.
It seems the bug is just random then. Maybe it only affects certain devices? Hell, I don't know. I've been lucky then I guess. I feel for you people who get affected by that 1 HP bug. I can't wait for the first patch.

It went down for me for a minute but now it's back up. I'm about to start my walk so it better stay up!
Yup I'm gonna try and chew them down slow but sure.

Also did i misunderstand the whole circle thing?
I've went for smallest possible circle and had it fail a ton and last time i just flinged my balls at the pokemon at the giant circle, got the word "Nice" pop up and captured it.
Have I been playing Hardmode?
Yup I guess thats true. Soon out of balls anyway so nothing I can do at that point
;(((

I think it depends, there was a walkway bridge made near me about a year ago and it's on the map correctly, so my area must have had a google maps update between then and now.
I'm running on an iPhone 5S and it works just fine. I'm nearly certain the iPhone 5 would work just as well. Perhaps someone else with a standard 5 will chime in.

They should still be able to be chipped down by a few people teaming up.
Yet you're still a higher level than me, and I literally have 3 pokestops in my house.
This is what my map looks like unless I feel like driving 20-30 minutes in either direction.

I read somewhere for yellows etc..the smaller the circle..the less chance they escape? For Greens I don't think it matters?

What's the rarest pokemon you guys think you own? Relative to your area of course. I've got a dratini, and from the folks I've run into no one else has one. I really want an Onix but I can't find a location in miami that might have one.
Anyone run into a ditto yet?
Everyone and their mothers have an eeveeloution though. Things are so strong in the early game.

I'm using an iPhone 5. No issues with the phone itself. No frame rate or sluggishness issues and it loads quickly. Just running into some of the same problems everyone else is having.
