That would be pretty awesome, personaly I'm bummed that this game isn't on 3DS because my phone can't run it. I know 3DS has AR too *cry in a corner*

awesome, thank you! I will definitely be reading this over my lunch break today
...i've been doing it wrong all this time? D:
I don't wanna steal cell phones, I wanna steal Pokemon (and protect the world from devastation, for whatever reason)!

I keep getting can't authenticate messages when trying to login. Is this common??

Just saw this pop on my FB feed, Local Police Departments are annoyed: Just use common sense people.
My game freezes immediately after I catch a Pokemon. I have to force quit every time. The Pokemon will be in my inventory after restart but it's super annoying.
In power save mode sometimes the game will no longer register my screen presses. Once again I have to force quit.

Anyone have these issue?

I'm getting them now as well. I'm assuming servers are dying.
I would wait until you have a ton of Pidgeys and candy. I had around 192 Pidgey candy and pared with a lucky egg I went up 3 levels.

This is happening to me to right now. club.pokemon.com appears to be undergoing maintenance?
Try turning off AR, that's what worked for me

Another 10km egg hatched, another Scyther! Alway glad to have two, and it has Steel and Dark moves so it's not a copy of my first one.
Just one more 10km egg to go for now, and it's almost done.

I've been hearing the exact opposite that if you make a skilled shot into a smaller circle that the chances of the catch is higher. lol.

I'm not even expecting a mainline game, it's fine not to have battling or anything else, but I was hoping it would take advantage of aspects of mobile that the handheld games couldn't. Connection to your Pokemon, raising sim aspects, something. Aspects of Pokemon-Amie would have worked great here, too.
Even with the walking app aspects in mind, I feel like the old Pokemon Pikachu virtual pets/step counters did a better job of "connecting you" to the Pokemon.

I was surprised to read this generaly people just stay in front of the police station or fire station. Those people must have been hell shy, lol.
Anyway, I advice them to put a picture behind the station to send the message just like a skatepark did.
Yes, please people, keep buying and popping these babies so I can save my gold for lucky eggs and incubators. Muahaha.

It happens. I assume it's a server issue.

Who in the right mind hides in a bush behind a PD and pops out to scare people?
Some people are asking for trouble.

People should stop referencing data that makes me feel uncomfortable because games get ported to platforms I don't like
I'm guessing the Trainer Club Servers went down again? I was playing just fine an hour ago but now when I try to log in it gives me a message that says:
Unable to Authenticate. Please try again later.

Yeah, I have a post above on this page with a link to where it says it is supposed to be smaller for better chance
Well hopefully they'll expand it. They already plan to include more pokèmons, I think trades are planned as well so we might just have to wait and see.

I almost feel bad. I've been out of NYC since Thursday and I still have over 100 PokeBalls.
City Mouse won this one hard.
I'm pretty sure that is the case although I've had a couple of mistimed throws with circles as big as possible and still caught oranges on the first try. Who knows.
This is making me wonder a lot about the future of Pokemon. This feels like Pokemon in its ultimate form. I could have imagined a Pokemon MMO where you do a lot of the things you do in this but in a virtual world (lock down Gyms for your team, etc)... but this almost trumps that as an experience as well.
There will clearly always be people who prefer a traditional gaming experience and prefer the traditional Pokemon games... but WOW does this ever have potential to be something great and revolutionary.

This is what I get for moving away from the city. Dammit. Time to move back. It's worth it for Pokeballs!
I agree. If you could pick a favorite and improve it through a pet sim, or like track your Pokémon's happiness, and get benefits from sticking with certain ones, maybe giving them food or gifts, that would be neat. Leave it optional if need be, but I think it would go a long way toward fostering that connection. Right now cp is king, all the weaklings get minced into candy.
Some people can't watch other people have fun.
From my FB feed:
Is it a way to tell people to not trepass private property ?

Charmander, Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Pikachu can all be obtained from the 2k eggs.
Been happening to me too. I caught a paras and it stayed on the catching screen without verifying whether it had been caught. Closed the app and found it in my inventory. I think it may be a power-saving thing, but I can't say for sure.
That said, I don't really mind as long as it ends up being caught!
It should work!
Smaller. You're trying to hit the ring. The harder it is to do so, the better your chance of catching!
You haven't.
Unless you immediately just need the higher cp, say to attack/place a defender in a gym, and don't yet have the candy yet, evolving is better. Or more specifically, both will raise the Pokémon's CP, but evolution also has other benefits.
That's pretty good for level 7
Because it's Niantic and The Pokemon Company, not Niantic and Nintendo.
Same. I hope it works in a few hours as I'm heading to a park after the (workout) gym. This is my life now hah.

There can only be ONE team.

It's so odd to me that some people claim they have to trespass to get points. I haven't experienced any gyms or Pokestops yet that are on actual private property. I imagine they're out there somewhere though!

From my FB feed:
I already hate the fact that people look down at their phones while walking.
Don't power up and only evolve common pokemon until level 15/20.
You need to do both to make strong pokemon, but it's more efficient to wait until you're a high level.
I have found one (a Gym), out of probably the range of 100 total gyms/stops I've come across. It can be accessed without getting onto the property though, from across the street.

This is NYC midtown right now.
That's awesome. There's a lot of stops a few blocks from my house but that's nuts. I do like having clumps of Pokestops as opposed to a lot really spread out because then more players will congregate in the same area.
