Pokémon Go |OT| As in "Go Outside"

I'm the only one that has a friggin hard time with Zubats? not only they're hard to aim, they escape a lot more than other Pokemons. I think I'm gonna ignore them for now.
They were the first non-starter Pokemon I came across.
I nearly quit the game then and there.
Thankfully I saw a Pikachu on the radar and went for that instead.
 
RE: Zubats

I have a much easier time hitting them with the ball when I have AR on for some reason.

Needed one more Staryu to have enough candy to evolve... Ran into one and caught it... 360cp! Evolved to high 800's, so psyched.
 
Its everyone, not just you. I still think they rearrange themselves according to how close they are but I'm not even sure if that is working properly.

I've waited 20 years for pokemon to be cool again and this is going to ruin the experience!

At least I did catch a Jigglypuff.
 
Anyone know why sometimes, when I attack a gym, the enemy will one shot my first Pokemon right off the bat, even though my CP is higher than theirs? There wasn't a type disadvantage or anything like that either. Is it lag?

I've had this happen to me a couple times lately, my Pokémon goes from full health to zero as the battle is loading. A pretty annoying glitch, but I always end up winning regardless.
 
Feeling pretty lucky. My first 3 Eevees all evolved into a different 'mon.

Vaporeon first at 870
Jolteon second at 492
Flareon last at 783

I have no idea why Jolteon is sucking it up with his CP.
 
Yeah my Eevees evolved into Flareon and Vaporeon respectively; I really really want a Jolteon but knowing my luck it'll be one of the other two for SURE
 
Yeah, I'm not able to log in with my Pokemon Trainer account right now either. I just get unable to connect to server.

Mine says "Unable to Authenticate", does that mean anything in particular or do I just have to keep waiting? (I'm not banned somehow, am I? I just signed up yesterday and I've barely played... I got a Charmander, Eevee and a Rattata)

apparently jolteon can attack faster or something?

vape still has that enormous hp tho

I clicked the sign out button and tried to sign back in again, and got the unable to authenticate as well. I presume it's Pokemon Trainer accounts. My brother is able to connect but he uses a google account.

Any other PTC accounts unable to connect right now?

I wanted to join Team Instinct because underdogs and I like yellow but I think Articuno is the best bird (as in it looks the best) and I don't want to miss it if the birds end up being tied to teams.

Oh man so that Clefairy really was like 20 feet away... shit. Didn't encounter the "all pokemon always 3 steps away" glitch until today.

I had a 2KM egg with 1.99KM on it. Just checked my game and it's gone and I can't find anything new in my pokemon list.

Sort by recent?
 
yes zubats maintain their reputation as annoying af in this game.

Electric attacks are awesome around here because there are tons of water pokemon holding Gyms. Don't have much besides my Electabuzz yet.

If you're trying to take out a gym with pokemon much stronger than you, dodging is really important. Types and being overleveled in cp can let you brute force them.
 
Wait did they add daily rewards or has that always been there?


if you go into the Shop on the top right there is a badge looking thing that you can click and it gives you poke coins.

what is this?




Bite 6

Bulldoze 30
1 pokemon station in 1 gym = 10 coins and 500 dust
 
These freezes on ios are starting to annoy me. Every time i try to catch a pokemon the screen freezes. Is there a solution for this?
not related to ios or anything, that's just the servers. if you wait a bit before you restart, if that throw would have caught it you'll have it in your inventory.

Someone earlier suggested when that happens to let it sit for a good 5+ seconds. Essentially letting the capture finish behind the scenes. when you close the app and reopen it the Pokemon might be in your inventory. This happened a few times for me.
 
couldn't find any definitive answer on same-type attack bonus (and I had to look up for myself what it was D:)
Hawk your faq is great, really helped me
appreciate you saying so dude.

There is more stuff I would've put in there now, it's a bit basic as the community was still figuring things out, but it's already super long.
