Pokémon Go |OT| As in "Go Outside"

Female to male ratio is going up a lot in the city, 1:4 were female. Was about 100 people I saw in my 20min walk. Used both buffs and went from lv10 to 11.
 
Thanks to this game I now have the original Pokemon anime on in the background.

God I love that theme song. Completely unironically. I wanna be the very best...
 
Lol it's almost 11pm and I look at the app, and there a pokelure happening at a park 6 blockd away

I get in my car, go to park. Empty and dark as fuck, then I see a bunch of teenagers all smoking it up where the lure was happening, and playing the go app near the parking lot. i just sat in my car for like 20 minutes catching their lures :x
 
No, never heard of it. What is it?

Secret best app. You answer periodic surveys (typically based on your GPS location I believe) and get google play credit in return. If you live in a populated area or go out near a shopping center once a day you can potentially get a lot of credit. I use all mine immediately usually lol but my wife hoards it and has around $65 from the last several months or so.
 
I wanted to be one of the cool kids so I downloaded it, and I can't find any pokemon aside from the squirtle that was in my living room. There are a lot of pokestops near me - whatever those are.

Yeah. It's useful. Unfortunately, I don't get as many surveys.

1. The box in the lower right is your way to locate pokemon. The more feet symbols the farther away they are.
2. Pokestops are notable real world places where you can obtain random items, as well as deploy lures to attract pokemon. The lures + location allow for real world interaction with other players.
 
Oh, so a cool thing was this local restaurant caught onto the Pokemon Craze and had a PokeLure running all day at their PokeStop, I actually decided to give them my business for being awesome and supportive to the Pokemon Fans. :)

SO JEALOUS

ALL I WANT IS A JOLTEON
 
Went down to the riverfront park to catch some stuff. Sooo many people walking around with their phones out obviously playing this. Really impressed by how popular it seems to be.
 
What does the circle that gets smaller when you're about to catch a Pokemon mean?

Also, I have a buuuuunch of poke spots nearby. First day and I'm already to level four. I'm gonna be on blue team.
 
Stupid Goldeen took the raspberry but ran away eventually. I hate that. Waste of a pokemon slot for a lure and wast of pokeballs :/


Do multiple raspberries in a row do anything?
 
This game is so much better when you go running. Not only do you keep encountering wild Pokemon, but you can hatch 10 km eggs very quickly.

Smaller the circle the better chance you have at catching them. Hold down before throwing and wait for it to be small.
 
I'm legitimately surprised that you can't buy stardust

For the best.

Anyway, how do we individualize pokemon? we can cap at highest trainer level, and the movesets are limited. Is weight and size the only way? I would say the battle system is the weakest point of the game minus-server errors.
 
I hope they make a convenient way to suggest/edit PokeStops.

Ideally every neighborhood would have at least one point on interest.

A lot of the streets here are cul de sacs that have a small fountain or gardening feature at the entrance to the street. A couple of those could be good stops, instead of needing to drive a few miles to different parts of town before I see any.

Get people walking around their own neighborhoods, too.
 
Having incense on really made my pokemon finder rate go from 0/hour to 40. Now non incense mode feels like peasant mode. Don't like it.
 
Gym I helped reinforce earlier today is already down to a single Pokemon left. I almost want to go over and help, but it's late and I wouldn't be able to boost it enough to house one of my Pokemon anyway...
