Pokémon Go |OT| As in "Go Outside"

This is what I dreamed growing up would be like...running around catching pokemon with kids and adults. What a time to be alive lol
 
Can you take over the gym that is on the same team? Aka I knock out their Pokemon and put mine in there and get benefits?

The city seems divided in red and blue, but very few yellow.
Haven't made up my mind just yet, but if I can't take over gyms of my team I'm going with Yellow.
No, but you can add your Pokemon to the gym if the gym level is high enough.

Saw a lure nearby last night and the servers seemed steady enough. Ran down there and two kids were there. I said fuck it and threw another lure at the other pokestop literally 100 feet away for double potency.......fucking cars all over man LOL. You can't make this shit up. Best part is its right next to the police station and somebody backed up into another car.....quickly looked to see if he hit anyone.....finished catching the pokemon and THEN got out to inspect the damage to his vehicle........its amazing. I've seen a lot of near miss's since this game came out. People need to stop driving and playing. It works best when walking anyways. Just find a spot to park and start walking around.
 
Game is a POS.

20 poke stops no items.

Caught 3 Pokemon and game registers one.

Id love to play but this is ridiculous
 
Did a short walk to finish up an extra .2 kilometers for an egg. Server issues started occurring, so no hatching animation. Still, an Exeggcute appeared in my party, so it's all good. I also snagged my first 10K egg! Can't wait to see what it is.
 
Tried it out today. It crashed a lot (froze), but I'm not sure whether it's my old phone or something else like the servers.
 
Guys don't forget the necessary stuff for your afventure :D
This Bestbuy is on the hype train!

So when someone puts a lure down it has to be at a Pokestop or gym?

Also, when putting a lure down and saying people are flocking to it, what are they seeing on the map? I haven't seen anything out of the ordinary in my limited time with the game yet....

Yes, it has to be there since its a public place that others can easily gather to.

Petals raining down on the area is what shows when the lure is active on a spot.
 
When disposing/transfer Pokémons... should I purely do this based on their CP (get rid of the ones with low CP) ? Or should I look at other aspects?
 
Wait, how did you get a Pikachu as a starter? And can it still be caught in the wild?

Yes. I guess.

To get it you just have to ignore the starters a couple of times. Just by walking away. NEVER tap on them. At the 4th or 5th time they refresh theur position, a Pikachu will appear.

Thank you!

I kept a lower cp Doduo because it had a flying attack where my higher up Doduo had two normal attacks..... Not sure if I'm doing it right though, I want to take over a gym near my house 😛
 
I saw their was an Rhyhorn near by and got real excited. So instead of driving to the grocery store, I walked. Probably about 2km. In the end, I didn't find the Rhyhorn, but I did catch an Ivysaur! So I guess that's alright.
 
It's nice to finally see some benefits in working third shift as I'very barely rub into several issues at all from 10pm to about 10 or 11 am.
 
Just a heads up if anyone's been on the sidelines waiting, this morning I was able to log in with my PTC name and password. I guess they got stuff working overnight?
 
I grabbed the game just before taking a walk to the store and so far I caught a Pikachu, 2x Magikarp (one of which I transfered), a Spearow, a Drowzee and I hatched a Weedle, I was grinning from ear to ear for a hatching a Weedle, would have liken to seen my face.

Although the game isn't out in my country yet (Belguim) al the gyms I passed seem to have been taken already. The trainstation nearby actually has a double gym in it.
 
After a brief glimpse of what was around me last night, game has been firmly stuck on the spinning white PokeBall all day. Hopefully the server issues are resolved soon, I'd love to take this out later and catch some stuff.
 
Ugh the game is having a lot of issues today. Hopefully it's working by the time I leave for work so I can catch some pokemon on the way.

Still wish this was already out in Canada but US version will do for now.

uhh you know that once you get within range of the pokestop you touch the stop and the spin the picture right? Cause you always get something.
 
Updated the Op with some quick general questions that have been asked, which will hopefully help those that get their questions missed.

Also added this, but reposting again from last night.

For android users, there's a little quick bonus for this game. Download "Google Opinions Rewards" for your phone, and register. It'll occasionally ask you random little survey questions, but in turn you'll be rewarded with a few cents in google play credit. If you let it build up, you can use it to buy stuff in Pokemon Go!


Click that little doodad to download!

I use this a lot for Avengers Academy, it's not a ton you'll get (usually around 10-15 cents per finished survey) but hey, it's better than nothing and you can let it ride! I think you'll get a lot when you first sign up but they've been pretty scarce for the last few months.
