Pokemon Go - Don't be shy....
Discussion
I've still not had a special item despite spinning literally a billion (or what seems like it), Pokestops over the last couple of weeks. I'm having to keep throwing stuff out of my perpeptually full bag to make room for new spins.
I did think the pinaps were appearing a bit less than initially too. I'd been using those on virtually anything to build up evolving fodder for the XP, but I've had to reign that in now.

What? So any tertiary evolution gives extra XP/candy? Did not know that.
My focus has shifted to getting Weedles, Pidgeys and Caterpies as you get an evolution on average every 3.7 catches. With an average of about 180 XP for every catch with the new first catch bonus, adding the evolution XP means you effectively get about 310-320 XP for every 12 candy evolution Pokemon.
If pinap berries weren't so rare then it'd be worth using to effectively double the XP boost.
I've no lucky eggs left, have no intention of paying for any, am still a bit away from level 30 when I believe more are given, and when you have hundreds of thousands of XP to get to the next level the impact of one is lessened anyway, so this is a reasonable substitute in terms of grinding XP. Also means I don't have to juggle storage to keep 20-30 Pidgeys in there any more.
Swinnubs can do one, however. Bit crap how there are no gen 2 Pokemon that only need 12 candy for an evolution.

They're handy as they give you a catch on two types, which helps you get to the gold badge and catch bonus for ice and ground type.Once I have that, I'll not bother any more. Same with Murcrows, only good for building up to a full dark catch bonus.
