    Caught a Zubat in Mount Tesco. It also had Shellder but the game crashed when I got Zubat. Oh well, it's one more for the collection.

    Currently seen Paras, Oddish, Eevee and Vileplume around here without catching them.

    I'm sorry, but Pokemon Go looks fucking awful. Other than it being a good way to get kids outside & doing very light exercise while staring at their phones constantly I don't understand the appeal at all, especially for people who aren't already Pokemon fans - a girl I work with came in yesterday morning & proclaimed "I've caught a Ratta & a Centepi already!"

    No doubt I'll end up giving it a go when it gets a proper UK release & end up addicted, but I won't be happy about it!

    Well I'm enjoying it. Spent the evening walking around town and down by the river taking gyms.

    There was a good ten or so people hanging out by a lure module. Imagine what it will be like when it's actually released.

    Oh and got an Onix from a 10k egg. Only 85cp though, so one purely for the Pokedex.

    They need to get it out here before school finishes so the kids in the know can tell the loser kids to get it too.

    For anyone not on it just yet, you can get pikachu as your starter:

    Not that it's worth it because starters are shit.

    I caught on Oddish on a walk just now but the game crashed before I could find Eevee. The fucking things keep eluding me. Can't wait until they improve the servers. Seems to crash so often when I catch something and then it's 50/50 if I get to keep it.

    Edit- Speaking of which, the Abra I caught earlier is gone.

    Yeah the servers are wank but that's to be expected, I highly doubt they imagined it to be this fucking massive.

    The day it was released in Australia and New Zealand (the 6th which is when I started) was a fucking nightmare. It would be up for 5 minutes and down for 10-15. They had to take it down for about 4 hours at one point to fix it.

    Mine never crashes whilst catching stuff, but whenever I try and interact with a Pokestop or Gym the internet seems to drop off (only for that app) and I have to reboot it. Out of pokeballs now thanks to some bastard Geodude punching them out of the air every time.

    There's a gym at the church at the bottom of my road and there's been at least one person standing there since about 12 today, it's going to be huge when the game gets released properly. A few updates for battling/trading would be nice, and they should let your starter passively level with you or something, it just seems pointless right now.

    You're lucky then. I'd estimate every 2-3 things I catch (probably closer to 2) the game crashes on the Poke Ball when it closes and I have to quit out, and then half the time the Pokemon is there and the other half it's not.

    I've reached the point in my life where fusing Personas is better than catching Pokemon.

    If your having issues with it crashing when catching them turn AR off. Seems to have fixed it for me.

    I did and it still does it.

    I thought that my local Tesco was a gym but turns out the Gym is actually the "Bear in the Big Blue House" kids ride outside Tesco.

    I just have AR turned off anyway, seemed to be borking lots of things up and doesn't really add anything.

    Has something changed over night? When I woke up my icon was greyed out but there was another right next to it and using the new one logged in instantly rather than taking 5 minutes.

    Answer to this is no, it's gone back to being shit.

    That said I went to the shopping centre earlier and there was fuck tons of Pokemon there. Didn't have long but I bagged a Drowzee who is my new highest CP and a bunch of Pidgey/Rattata.

    Multiple people can catch the same thing. However they appear at different levels for different people based on trainer level.

    I drove past the RAF base in Henlow today which is a gym. I really wanted to pull over and smash the yellow cunt who was holding it but I bottled it. I thought some dickhead would come out and call me a cunt.

    It looks more like a used Kleenex.

    Between that and "Cutiefly" being a name I think I'm close to being done.

    I'm nearly level 13. I go for a walk every day anyway, so this game is perfect for me. According to the jogger medal I've walked 22km so far.

    3 eggs hatched on my way home. Got an Eevee from my 10k egg, which I was seething about, but it does come with a lot of candy too, so evolved it and now got a 338 Jolteon. Got Oddish and Exeggcute from the 5k eggs.

    I'm level 6 despite the fact I walk a fair amount and have done so even more since this came out. I just don't get to catch a lot as there's not much around and the servers are always down when I'm free to play. I'm sure I can improve this rapidly once the servers work more often.

    Failed to catch a pidgeot in red with an unknown amount of cp.

    Someone almost missed registering for our exam today because they encountered a Beedrill on the way over

    Apparently his dad facetimed him while he was trying to catch it and fucked him over, so he didn't even get it either.

    Just caught a 541 Lickitung and a 516 Parasect whilst having a shit. My office seems to be a spawn point for the former, as that's the second one I've found here and not seen it anywhere else.

    Up to level 8. Caught loads today, had a couple of jobs on Portsmouth by the sea and all sorts of new Pokemon popped up. Wasted about 40 balls getting a Scyther but he's mine now.

    Yeah, I actually had the pidgeot in my balls (lol) twice but it broke free and ran. It must have been at a level too high for my 10.

    I did catch two fucking squirtles last night though. 231 and 205.
