It seems to be acting like I don't have an account, asking me for permission to do things like view my email, then not letting me in.
Europe has its own servers now. Still had a few problems today.
Had the pokeball freeze on a Vaporeon earlier :(
Yeah, servers are fucked here. Wankers.
Is anyone getting the same error as me, or is it just not logging in? I could handle that, but it's worrying that it's acting like I'm a new user.
Edit- Crisis over, it's back up and my account still exists. :D
Went outside to eat & didn't see a single Pokemon. Came back in & immediately bumped into a Zubat.
Score one for staying inside :cool:
EDIT: Just found a Pidgeotto in my bed too, but it vanished before it would acknowledge me tapping on it.
Bumped into my first ??? Pokemon in the car back from work. Just so happened to be Electabuzz. Got it in a ball and the game froze. Haven't been able to get back on since to check if it counted.
That's what happened to the Vaporeon I saw earlier and it was gone when I managed to log back in.
Just finished an evolution session. 550 odd Exeggcute evolved into a beast and is now my highest CP pokemon, which was a bit unexpected.

It could have gone as high as 1749.

Exeggcute's have a high multiplier.
Magikarp's have the highest.
Is there a trick for catching Zubat? The fuckers are so annoying that I genuinely can't be bothered but I'd like to somehow get enough for a Golbat.
Throw it further than you normally would.
Took me ages to catch my first but now I think it's probably the easiest to catch.
That's what I do but it still seems so annoying. I had one earlier that I got in my 2nd ball but it broke out and 3-4 balls later I gave up. I already have 1 so it's not the end of the world but I wish I could catch the fuckers.
Servers went down as soon as I left work and have only just come back up. I think Japan has got the game now so I imagine the Niantic servers are going nuclear right now.
Stabilise the servers, sort out the three step glitch and fix the freezes, you clowns.
They're too busy drowning in all the pussy that this is getting them.
Imagine being a Niantic worker right now.
Nearly fucked up the mass exp gain operation. Went for a long walk and on the way back saw my eggs were sitting at 200m from hatching, so I sat down, triggered my Lucky Egg and started evolving Pidgeys and anyone else who had enough candies. Stupidly I didn't notice my battery was getting dangerously close to running out. So I packed up and started walking home as quick as I could. Luckily the eggs hatched before the phone died (Hitmonchan, Jynx and Chansey). Got in, put the phone on charge and had enough time to evolve everything bar three Pidgeys. Start of the morning I was only just at level 10, right now I'm 3k away from level 15. :drool:
My top 6 are now:
Magneton - 443
Golbat - 419
Electrode - 407
Electrode - 404
Raticate - 394
Magneton - 372
Also caught a Geodude, Cubone and Paras.
Roughly how many did you actually evolve in that time?
I now have a 2nd Lucky Egg so I'm going to use the first when my 10km egg gets near to hatching. I'll probably chuck in an extra 5km one when that one reaches 5km. Had a good haul of Pidgey/Weedle/Rattata today thanks to someone putting a lure on a Poke Stop.
Added some new mons to the dex today- Meowth, Sandshrew (egg) and Gastly... and then a 402 CP Vileplume :drool:. That actually gave me enough Oddish candies to evolve one into Gloom, but I'll wait until I do the lucky egg, especially as Gloom will be a new mon.
I evolved 6 Pidgeys, 8 Weedles, 1 Caterpie, 4 Rattatas, 2 Voltorbs, 2 Magnemites and a Zubat, so 24. If you don't mess up like I did, you could evolve 60 with each one taking about half a minute to watch the evolution clip.
Got to level 15 by catching loads of duplicates and a 581 Persian. Ended up with 25 Pokeballs. Probably need to stop catching shit for a while.
I went to a local lake and sat by a pokestop which had been lured.
Also used an incense and caught a boat load of pidgeys, sperows and rattatas. Also added an Abra, a seel, a zubat, a gastly, a magnemite, a killer drowsee and a poliwag.
Also hatched a Horsea and a gay weedle plus I caught a Staryu after I finished shopping at Sainsburys.
Didn't see a single fucking magikarp though.
I also had to resist the urge to laugh a kid who was boasting to his friends that he's now a level 8.
Not too bad of a day.
As it stands currently I could evolve:
Drowzee if I can catch one more.
Oddish (which would be a new mon).
2 x Rattata
2 x Pidgey
3 x Weedle
2 x Caterpie (though that would hurt my attempts to get Butterfree, but never mind).
So only 11. I need to hope I can find a lot more stuff before that egg hatches, but if not, oh well, I'll go with it as I have another Lucky Egg.
So 12K, then 5K from your 10km and 5km eggs if you get two new Pokes. If you are good at catching things on the go, trigger an incense as well and hope for new Pokes for 1.2K from each of them. Should net you 20K and two levels.

:D
Saw that the other day and immediately sent it to everyone I know who is playing it, it's amazing. :D
Managed to catch another now mon for the day, Horsea. However the game has now crashed again and won't let me in. It does this every evening and only returns when I can't be bothered to go out anymore.
Went to the shops & tried to play on the way - first the game was saying there were literally no pokemon nearby, then it refused to let me in. Got back to my door after spending the whole journey fucking around trying to get the game to work & saw a pokemon at last. Crashed as I caught it.
This game is awful :D
If it says there's nothing nearby I always check to see if the Poke Stops are there. If they aren't you know it's not loaded properly and will have to quit out. If they are then usually some stuff will be nearby soon after you start walking.
Got in and headed out as there were THREE Drowzee nearby. Suddenly a Seel pops up exactly where i got Horsea earlier. Can you guess what happened next?
It turned into a Mewtwo and you caught it with one Pokeball? :cool:
Indeed, I'm now the very best. :cool:
Or a guy who has been robbed of a Seel (most likely, I still can't get in to check) on two different occasions.
Apparently there's been a new update. See if that helps.
Can confirm no Seel. :(
Hopefully that'll help. I've been able to get back in for now but there's nothing nearby.... still I give it a quick walk and see if anything pops up.
Edit- Nope it's gone again before I'm even out the door. :D
Fuck... I just misclicked and used my incense at a time where the servers are dodgy as fuck. Well, that's that wasted.
Edit- The incense bought me....
Rattata- Crashed- Was captured.
Rattata- Crashed- Not captured.
KINGLER- Crashed- No idea yet...
I doubt I get back in before it runs out. I also doubt I'll be lucky enough to get him. What a rip off.
No Kingler. :( I give up. That's 2 new mons I've been robbed of in the space of an hour or so and an item I wanted to save completely wasted. So fucking annoying.
Despite the nightmares I've had this evening I've just discovered the method to make sure your first Poke Ball always hits. Sure, it doesn't always catch, but I'll use that on those cunt Zubats.
Gutted about the incense, but I have some Lures, so I'll use that instead with my Lucky Egg seeing as my nearest Poke Stop is a bench. :D
Oh and today I learnt that the Lego Darth Vader they have in my local John Lewis is a Poke Stop. :D I didn't go to it because it's not worth the effort of navigating that store, but that's the best Poke Stop in the world.
Not sure if you guys are aware of this or not, but you can control the evolutions of Eevee by renaming it to its corresponding master in the animated version. I renamed it Sparky, evolved it and sure enough I got a Jolteon.
Sparky, Rainer or Pyro will get you what you want.
Sweet, I need a Vapereon.
One of the best Pokemon in the game right now.
Haven't been able to play for a few days. Just come back to it and found this beast :cool:

27 :D
Why do they bother making them that bad?
I think I'm already bored of this now.

By far my best egg.
I also just caught an 854 Fearow which is the highest thing I've caught (but still not as good as my 877 evolved Hypno).
Leve 18:

Getting a bit tired of grinding Pidgeys tbh.
Reached a 1/3 of the way through the Pokedex today. Went on a gym capturing/reinforcing spree to use up the Potions which were floating around taking up important Pokeball space in the bag. At one point had seven Pokemon holding seven gyms. Unfortunately as I was making my way home, one by one my gyms fell. Have a 324 Shellder guarding my last gym on the busiest road outside the neighbouring village. I'd be shocked if it lasts the night.
Servers seem alright tonight but I've not managed to get a great haul regardless. Done alright though adding a few mons but nothing new. As it stands I could evolve:
Drowzee (though I'm sure I've caught more than 1 since my update and still only have 50 candies, is there a cap?)
Oddish (Gloom = New Mon).
Pidgey x 4 (If I transfer 11 of the 15 I have).
Rattata x 3 (again involves transferring 7 of them)
Weedle x 5 (again with a lot of transfers)
Caterpie x 2
So up to 17 from the 11 I had previously. Eggs are at 6.5 and 1.5 respectively. I won't get to play much tomorrow due to work so I reckon I can get them to hatch/mass evolve by Saturday.
No candy cap, or you'd never evolve your Magikarp.
I've slowed right down now, not had much time to play last few days, though did hatch some eggs on my way home and hit level 21. Only a few new additions to the squad.

I am off all of next week though :uhoh:
Spent a few hours today in a local park where some kind soul had lured three stops, all within range. Weather was perfect. :cool:
In the 90 minutes that they were lured, I caught 20 Drowzee... I'm gonna make the greatest Hypno the world has ever seen.
How many km has everyone covered? I've covered 62 since official launch last Thursday.
Just under 30km since the 11th, so nowhere near as much.
35 km since a few days before launch.
Just got my first 1000+, a Nidoqueen appeared in my backyard. :drool:
29.8 since the 6th.
Most of which were in my car.
Fuck walking.
Man, there's a specific Aerodactyl spawn in my town because I've seen it on my nearby twice in the same area, but the three step bug makes it impossible to track down.
I tried triangulating with Pokevision but to no success.
:(
I havent't tried it, but have a look at pokeradar maybe? Other people are posting where they're finding pokemon.
70k.
