Thanks!! I caught some, traded for others with extra shinies I caught and hatched the last 4 (Bellsprout, Seel, Venonat and Krabby. Seel took 400+ eggs and the rest less than 100 each)
Off to gen2! The shiny locks are gonna depress me though lol xD

That is a lot of work, I actually didn't cheat in my living dex(aka I caught and evolved everything again, instead of transferring), and that was lot of work, that must have taken a lot of time.
Well I have some shinies if you need help, but I would have to clone them(not sure if you want clones).
Wow a complete Shiny dex of gen 1, that is impressive.
I've been on pokemon crusade lately having a full collection stored in the Bank and another full collection stored on Y. So at the moment I have 2 of every single Pokemon that is available. Working on a 3rd set, kind of, just the evolutions though on my Y. I figure if something should happen to any of my Pokemon games I will have a partial back up somewhere.
Easiest way to go about it is have Marvel Scale Extreme Speed Dratini, and Sturdy Tyrunt. I've been breeding them like crazy and people will trade ANYTHING for them. A few times I've asked for a legendary but I just go down the evolutionary list. I know some people probably freak out when among all those Arceus requests they see me offering ES Dratini with an Exeggutor wanted in return. It's pretty fun, I probably get about 10 trades a day and just let it slowly build up. Collecting all those ideas and getting a million PP Ups and PP Max's is nice too! Much more so than a master ball I'd think!
Does anyone have the Eon Ticket? Would we be able to street pass or what ever and then I get it?
Nooo! I missed out on the Manaphy event. I was bound to forget about one of these events sooner or later. :(
In other news, Pokemon Shuffle is still fun for me. I'd really appreciate a repeat of Zekrom and Shaymin though…

Do you mean the Manaphy event for 20th anniversary?
I have plenty of those. I can give you one if you'd like. You can even choose the language you want it in.

Oh really? That would be super nice.
I guess I'll go with German then. Now…when you say you have plenty...would it be possible to get one for my ORAS game and one for XY? I don't mean to be rude here though...one is plenty.

No problem. It's 6:30am for me right now for me.
When would you like to trade?
Shaymin is online so don't forget it ^^

Thank you so much, Tyrano. :)
And thanks, Hekti. I immediately secured myself two Shaymin. XD
For the first time I ranked in the highest tier of a Shuffle competition. \o/
I mostly only wanted the speedup for hungry Mega-Ray but this is certainly nice.
I'm at round 300 myself, trying to earn that stupid Mega Ray. It's rough. I think I need to just save up enough to use ALL the items, but that'll take like a month.
Meanwhile I guess I'll grind against Giratina and try to get the one Regi that I'm missing… though they're charging for that now, ick.
Yeah MRay is hard. If you want to S Rank the Stages as well better grind coins for a full item run
I don't give a crap about S rank. I just want to beat it and get the stupid item. Its what literally every top tier competitor uses in the challenges now.
Apparently after beating him the once you can then use his own power to curbstomp him.
Yeah true but it Mega evolves slow. I mean really slow.
I have 16 speed ups on him so it is better. But without candies or Mega Start other Megas are better

if you want to get Pokemon GO early
It's out now on the US app store, for both Android and Apple devices.
as I expected Pokemon GO keeps having server issues
Can I just say that leveling and evolving through Pokemon-specific candies is asinine? It seems like a major handicap to using rarer and more interesting Pokemon.

YES.
Although fuck, I'm still trying to figure out how to play the damn thing, the only thing I've done so far is catch pokemon. I found A poke-stop but there wasn't anything IN it, and there was a gym nearby but it was too far away at the moment to fight, so I haven't had the chance. Now I've also learned there are teams you join? Dammit, I gotta go Google stuff.
Also, apparently the White House has a gym. Naturally. And the person currently heading as gym leader (people can take over as gym leader?) is leading with a Pidgeot named Merica.

I found that when you are in range of a pokestop use the touch screen to spin it and items will pop out.
When you first fight (take over if gym is unowned) it will prompt you to join one of 3 teams with emblems based on the legendary birds Team Mystic(Articuno. I am in this one), Team Valor(Moltres), and I think it's team Instrinct(Zapdos).
Not exactly a Snorlax laying in the middle of the road but….

I'm surprised there hasn't been more Pokemon Go discussion here.

That site is annoying as hell, it won't stop moving.
But yeah, freaky.
I was real surprised at the lack of discussion too. Maybe we'll have more chitchat once it's released in Europe? Anyways, I'm in an area populated by tons of young adults and there's one particular spot in a nearby park that regularly has 30+ people standing around in it. Activity is high enough that one of the two close gyms is ruled by an 1800 CP Arcanine :cwy:
I'm not getting the game until it's officially released in europe. I know that a looot of people are already playing the "hacked" version or whatever … but it's not even clear if you can transfer your save file and i wouldn't want to use that version forever.Nah ... i'll be patient. It will probably come out this week anyway.
Yeah, the APK could have been tampered with and I do enough payments with my phone that a rusian taking over it would be a big issue.
I'll wait.
Honestly when I first heard about Pokémon GO, I was skeptical. I mean, I'm still skeptical because it seems to be having a lot of problems, but every single one of my friends who has tried it has loved it. And even go out of their way to go places to play it. Though it doesn't matter anyways because my Android phone is too old to play it (version is not compatible). Maybe when I go visit one of my friends at the end of the month, she'll be able to show it to me.
I am in so much love with my Vaporeon (Water Lily) xD I am glad my highest level Eevee was the right one!
Also took me a bit but I finally figured out how to actually hunt for Pokemon that I want! Caught a badass Fearow but missed a Snorlax. Couldn't pinpoint the damn thing's exact location before it was gone -.- Unfortunately to catch interesting monsters, I have to hunt outside my neighborhood. My major goal is to gather 400 candies for a Gyarados right now @w@ I waaaant!
Aaaaah having so much fun even when I am the only team Mystic around here!
Seen 51 caught 51.
So far I've had to uninstall and reboot this game three separate times due to various issues. And I've had it for less than a day. Current issue is that all the Pokemon friends I just spent like an hour gathering in the oppressive Arizona sun are gone. Just… they're all gone.
Gonna stick to just playing Treasure Cruise forever now. Maaaaybe I'll come back to this in a few weeks if they've sorted out the issues, but I have lost all willingness to put up with this garbage. For such a high profile thing, this is inexcusable.
Oh when your data is "gone" just turn your device on and off. Happened to me before and everything came back fine. The servers kicked me out like forever in the beginning. Now they are much more stable!
…That is such an obvious solution, I'm now mad at myself for not thinking of it earlier. Thanks Chrissie!
Pokemon GO is definitely the most fun I've had with a phone game.

I have lots of beef with this thing. It's addicting but has lots and lots of issues. The disconnects and server problems can be infuriating and why doesn't the game have a refresh feature. I've got to reset the application each time it shows server problems since that's pretty much just a game freeze, and the game only remembers my login half of the time (which is especially problematic since my google password is really lengthy and typing it on a phone is terrible). I also keep having connection issues with gym battles rendering me unable to shave the last bit of HP off of a pokemon, which cost me several gym battles and a lot of heal items.
The nice bit about the game is that it gets me to go places, though that usually ends with me staring at my phone the whole time, which can't be too healthy. Also the game requires a connection to work, so I can't go down my favorite park and hike routes to find pokemon. The most optimal places for hunting are urban areas, which I think limits the game a lot, since I want to incubate eggs on hikes and walking around town doesn't add to 10km that easily (and all the Psyducks are down by the creek of no connections). I also got pretty salty when said connection problems cost me most of my last incense (that should really count on an in-app clock and not the global).
Still I can't deny that this is sort of addicting and has gotten me to exercise more, it just needs a lot of tweaking before it can amount to being more than a horrible addiction to somewhat healthy behaviors.
It's really neat to see how popular this game is around your local community, just last night (around 11pm) I went to the store to get a few groceries, and I saw one guy encounter another guy on his phone and they shared knowledge ("There's a Pidgey over there"). Anytime I've seen anyone walk with their phone in their hand these last few days, it's been because of Pokemon Go. And just 2 minutes ago I saw two girls walk by, looking for a pidgeot.
Had no idea you could get a Pikachu as a starter. Apparently you just have to walk away from the starters about 4 times for him to pop up.
Having no mobile data (for now) sucks, though. I have to hop from hotspot to hotspot. Also, for the battery saver, you turn your phone upside down when it's activated to actually save battery. Kinda weird, and even weirder that it doesn't inform you that that is what you're suppose to do.
It's just not a well-made game and if it wasn't pokemon it would fail miserably. I hope the devs take a lot of feedback and make an extensive patch pretty quickly.
It is failing this hard because it's pokemon as well, the other game that this is built upon works fine, with a hundreth of the load.
Okay, this is just sad.

This game makes me wish I lived in an urban area and not in the boonies, because all I seem to have out here are bugs. Bugs and the odd Evee and Nidoran or Pidgey. I also haven't met anybody really who are playing, but again, I'm in the boonies, so it's kind of a lonely experience. BUT, so far I haven't had any connection problems, so that's good. knock on wood
I choked in my water. Smart bastards, they know everything about the fandom.
You fucker, you got a Gardevoir!?
Not mine. Also, the background is photoshop.
You fucker, you got a Gardevoir!?
Only Gen I pokemon are currently available, that's obviously fake
Geez… you had to ruin the prank, Noqanky.
It's just a joke about how Gardevoir is viewed by some fans…. Love the picture though, it's really funny XD
I'm an idiot. I'm gonna go crawl in a hole now.
Need some advice on my AS team. I need a fifth and sixth member, but I haven't really decided on one yet. I was wondering if any of you could suggest a Pokemon or Pokemon type to fit in. I'd like to keep it with the AS Pokedex, though.
-Roserade [Extrasensory/Poison Spikes/Petal Blizzard/Venoshock]
-Gardevoir [Magical Leaf/Dream Eater/Shadow Ball/Draining Kiss]
-Swampert [Surf/Earthquake/Mud Bomb/Rock Slide]
-Pikachu (still leveling her) [Dig/Electro Ball/Volt Switch/Draining Kiss]

You need more physical attackers as well as probably another tank. Just scrolling through, some Pokémon that catch my eye for you are Gyarados, Aggron, Dusknoir, Heracross, and Flygon. In terms of coverage I'd definitely suggest Ice Beam on someone, and including Fire and Fighting moves in your arsenal as well. If you're looking competitive, a priority move wouldn't go amiss either.
Side note, how is Dream Eater being used there? I didn't catch anything suggesting Sleep.

My moveset is currently a mess right now. It's currently a placeholder for the best Physic move I can give her when I can. Trying to get a general idea. I didn't even notice her having that move, since I usually rely on Roserade for Psychic moves.
There's going to be a huge Pokemon Go meet-up/walk at Boston Common on the 23rd and I'm WORKING GODDAMMIT!!!!

My city suburbs suck, so I've been hiking downtown and in the parks close to downtown. There's been meetups almost every night, but Friday had like 50-60 people. My friends didn't believe me about the lures. I did my first one at Midnight last night and had like 20 people come to it in the suburbs. Second was tonight on a bridge trying to farm me some 'Karp.
