I think it comes down to how many eggs you hatch. I have 36 that are above cp 1000 and I'm lvl 23 but I've also hatched 147 eggs.

I also haven't powered anything up yet.

I like the new "sightings". Helped me track down a 752 slow bro that kicked out of 3 berries and 2 great balls and ran

Sounds like I need to update the app soon. From the update summary in the iTunes app store:

quote:

- We're currently testing a variation of the "nearby Pokemon" feature with a subset of users. During this period you may see some variation in the nearby Pokemon UI.



Also battery saver mode glitches were apparently fixed and the option put back into the game.

Yup. Battery saver is back.


Also, does anyone know how to make all my eevee's stop evolving into fricking vaps. shite I need a high level jolteon and flareon and my past 5 eevee evolves, including 3 today have been fricking vaps.

I've evolved 3 Eeevees and got one of each.

Ran into a Snorlax at lunch CP 700ish. Used 6 Raspberries and hit him with 6 great balls all excellent throws. Broke out of each ball.

Then proceeded to get a 591 Venomoth, 441 Goldeen, 410 Odish, 323 Staryu with no Raspberries and just a couple of regular Pokeballs max. I swear it seems like people break out of Greatballs a lot more often than regulars. And it's a rarity to get even sub CP100 creatures with a single throw any more.

I keep getting the message about driving while I'm just walking down the hallway at work. I had a 2 km egg at 0.3 when I started the day. I average at least 7km on my fitbit just walking at work. I have only registered 1 km all day long on the app. And every time I check I have that stupid message up about driving and I haven't been in a car in 5 hours.

Must have been an iOS issue with the battery saver??? Because mine kept working and was always in the game. Not sure what the glitches were, but mine was fine.

Does anyone else have an overwhelming number of one of the Eevee evolutions? Of my top 6 pokemon, 5 of them are Vaporeons (And only one has hydro pump)



Yes. I'm in Shreveport and they are my most caught behind pidgeys and rattatas. I have seen 101 and caught 89.

I have 3 1200+ Flareon but only one with a decent strong attack. A 900cp Jolteon and 5 Vaporeons 1107, 1114, 1207, 1553, and 1785. The 1114 is a guaranteed 87% with hydro pump and the 1785 is a 91 avg iv with hydro pump all the rest are crap.

I justhad a 200cp zubat and a 1200cp scyther flee on the first ball back to back. I hit the zubat with a "nice" with a regular poke ball and it ran. Then the Scyther I decided to use a ultra ball because it was by far the highest cp Scyther I have seen. My highest is only a 672. My thing is why is there an ultra ball if a 1200 cp Scyther can bust out and run away on the first toss. AND both were with razz berries. I have like 30.

Either I'm lucky, or the name trick still works. I've evolved four eevees using the name trick, and it's worked all four times.

The problem for me was that when the app would "wake up" out of battery saver, the screen would be unresponsive. You had to force-close the app and restart it. Basically, it made battery saver useless....at least that's the problem I had.

I had the same issue on my Galaxy S6. It would wake up correctly maybe one out of ten times.

This is all so strange.

I was burning through 5 or 6 balls to catch low CP commons until the update.

It was very reasonable today after the update. Low CP commons went down like they should and catching higher CP ones went down like they should.

It's just been very inconsistent. And what's funny is when everyone else was complaining I didn't really notice any difficulty and only Rares were fleeing for me. Today though I have had quite a few run away. I had a 303 rattatas bolt after the first catch just a minute ago. I am a level 21 just fyi.

New update still sucks. Shouldn't have to use raspberries and multiple balls on low level pidgeys.

Is this sentiment based on other Pokemon games? It does not seem to bother me that they made it a little harder. I am just curious.

It's bothers me because if the point of the game is to "GO", I.e. get out and walk, I hate having to stop for every single monster and concentrate to make multiple good throws before catching them. Especially for the weak monsters, I should be able to just flick a ball and keep on walking.
