A six hour lure is all very well, but my iPhone battery doesn't last that long.

It does mean that pretty much any built up area will be well lured though

I've finally deleted the game off my phone yesterday. Just not engaging anymore like it was when it was first released, would have been nicer to have updates and more Pokémon available instead of endless Rattata's and Pidgey's

Nice to see Niantic have spent a bit of time improving the dust animations for landing and fleeing Pokemon.

That's really what the game was crying out for...

(Agreed!)

Just finished a six hour lure at the Pokestop next to my work. Not one unusual Pokemon (already full of Porygon, Wigglytuff etc.) and I probably watched it 95% of the time, so about 5 hours 40 minutes.

Was hoping for a Chansey.

Waste of time.

I've had them pop up a few times on the radar, but not been able to get out to them.

I'm doing well for Lickitungs, not seen a Porygon yet. Need another set of Eggecute (I think they're called and then I'll have enough to do them too.

Started all this a few months back. I think it was a cry for help.

The realised I had a life so gave up.

Just had a look at this, not that I'm anywhere near London, and it's just showing hundreds of Lickitungs and Porygons. That can't be all there is in London, surely?

I think that is due to the event that is going on.

If you click on the filter option in the top left corner, deselect Lickitung and Porygon and it will show the other "rares" currently around London.

You can also select other Pokemon except the very common ones from the same menu if there is something you are looking for.

Surprised its not been forcibly taken down by Niantic like the others tbh.

Good to see that it's given you so much more "life" that you can now afford the time to read and comment on a thread about the thing you no longer have any interest in

Wonder how they're doing that? Thought all the scraper/bot type maps had been circumvented?

Absolutely and if I was on here continually it would be a drop in the ocean compared to the time wasted staring at a phone screen getting excited about what a programmer had decided to put into it.

Fair play.

Can't really get into it myself but the wife's brother is pretty ill at the moment so we are trying to entertain their kids at the weekend so they can have some quiet time.

Difficult getting a 7 and 9 year old to go for a walk, particularly in this weather. Pokemon and geocaching helps so I'm all for it.

That's nailed it really. It's a kids thing IMHO, that's it's place in The World As We Know It.

About bloody time!

[loudlashadjuster]

Yeah, it looks like I'll finish the Valentines event still without a Chansey which I thought was nailed-on given its pinkness. so anything that'll mix things up a bit would be welcome.

Did manage to evolve Togepi into Togetic though.

Although I know some will have walked much further, I was contemplating the fact that I seem to have walked nearly 300km with this bloody Dragonite. It was under 100CP when caught so it's probably taken over 100,000 stardust to get to this point.

I caught a few Chanseys during this event (which seems to be still running) and also hatched another. With the double candy that gave and the candies I had from before I now have 140 Chansey candies!!

But still no Togepi/Togetic, only ones I'm missing
