Pokemon GO! Official Thread - now officially released in the UK!

Caught this mother****er earlier today.



Used up at least 30 ultra balls, ran out and then caught it in a regular Pokeball lol.

I was so annoyed that I wasted those precious ultra balls that I raged and levelled it up to 1600+ CP... but it still sucks omg and i'm down 30 dratini candy. Can't complain about finding it but wow the CPs I've found have been shocking

Impressive to catch a dragonite but probably a waste of stardust/candy. I think a level 500/600 dratini would evolve into a 2,000+ Dragonite?

Has anyone else found red gyms glitching? I've found the third red gym which just crashing whenever I try to look at the gym or battle. Not had it for any other colour gyms yet though..

I'd be interesting to see people's stats for the following:

- Jogger
- Collector
- Breeder
- Backpacker

Yeah but where I live, Dratini is pretty common so not that much of a waste to be fair

Level 22

Jogger - 141.57/1000 KM
Collector - 1267/2000
Breeder - 163/500
Backpacker - 2515

Wow you are a real jogger...to be fair, I cycle a lot and it counts max 10% of distance covered if at all. Today I did a 67km tour and after 20 gave up either my phone closed the app or it picked up nothing so I stopped trying to get it to work.

How did you manage to hatch so many eggs?...
Not hatched many myself and have walked further than you Tom?

Level 23 today. Still have 3 lucky eggs, but I am about 120 pidgey candies short of my next evolution cycle.

Don't know how you've managed to catch so many pokemon and pokestops with so little distance!

Don't know how you've managed to catch so many pokemon and pokestops with so little distance!

I have two pokestops at work.

I only have I guess a decent amount of distance in comparison, because my building makes the GPS glitch so it adds distance even though I am sitting. So I bet it is fairly easy to rack up pokestops without distance if one is lucky.

Also, if you live in the city, tend to be a lot more pokestops around than outside.

Yea I'm in London too. On my walk to work, I hit between 20-30 pokestops each direction. When I walk extra, I've found a route where I can hit about 50 pokestops in like 45 minutes but still my distance to pokestops/pokemon caught is way more than you.

Although I guess if you are sat on two pokestops at work then you can hit every 5 minutes which would be up to 24 pokestops an hour and potentially 200 a day? I guess you get a lot of pokemon spawn on those pokestops too?

Very jealous, I've got about 5 pokestops right by my work but none accessible from my desk.

Ugh.. so somehow I was still in two gyms today after close to 21 hours. Find a third gym to take over but by the time I took that, someone had taken one of my others - why couldn't you have waited 2 mins longer?!

Back up to 110 coins. Might actually buy another incubator. I'm going so slow with my evolutions this time round - still only 30 evolutions ready and in that time I've picked up like 55k XP.. got two lucky eggs so can't see myself getting through those quickly.

I started playing a day and a half ago after my girlfriend playing since it came out.

I'm up to level 12 and 50 in my pokedex

We drive round late at night hitting the pokestops

Has anyone worked out how slow you have to drive to fool the game into thinking you are walking?

I read it's 20 MPH but it's definitely less than that even 10 doesn't seem to track it fully
