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

Because a Water/Dragon type would only have 1 super effective attack against it, which would be Dragon (Ice would be x1 due to the Water type). As such, the developers felt that a Water/Dragon type Pokemon in generation 1 would be too OP to deal with and would effectively make it the strongest Pokemon in the game. They changed this down the line though as more Pokemon came out that could combat it (then the introduced Fairy types, etc).

Never finished the Pokedex, not far off though. If I remember, I need 5 candy or so for both Bellsprout and Oddish and then I can evolve them both completely, can also evolve Geodude up to Golem but I was waiting for more evolutions as to not waste a lucky egg. After that I think I only had Muk and a couple of others to get the 142.

Don't know if this is lucky or unlucky but I seem to be getting exclusively Exeggcute from 5k eggs lately. Never find them anywhere though and now have a good IV Exeggutor with a CP of 1779. =l
Only wanted it because of it being good against Vaporeons though given it is a grass type and the three most common pokemon I see in Gyms are Snorlax (nothing I have is really that effective against it), Vaporeon (Exxegutor should now be helpful against that) and Dragonite (My Lapras is a Dragonite bain). =D

Incense spawns the pokemon you'd normally see in that location, so if you just had incense on all the time in your house, you wouldn't eventually have a dragonite turn up if all you normally got was rattata and pidgey.

Pokémon GO updated to version 0.41.2 for Android and 1.11.2 for iOS
Trainers,

Pokémon GO is in the process of being updated to version 0.41.2 for Android and 1.11.2 for iOS devices. Below are some release notes and comments from our development team.

Catch Bonus: Trainers can earn a catch bonus for a Pokémon type as they catch more of a specific type.

Updated Gym Training: Trainers can now bring six Pokémon to battle at friendly Gyms. The CP of the Pokémon you are battling may be temporarily adjusted lower for your training session.

Egg & Incubator Screens: These will periodically update the distance walked without the Trainer needing to close and reopen the screen.

Fixed several audio issues.

Decreased the evolution animation time.

Minor fixes

So I start to get a little bored of the game and then something really frustrating like the one rare 10km I pick up hatches into a Jynx (I've caught about 40 ffs!) which makes me think of quitting.

Then I go have a good day like today..

Caught a Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Nidoran(M) in quick succession. Hatched a Bellsprout (needed to power my Victreebel), an Exeggute and a Lickitung! (also hatched a Tentacool and Staryu but they're ****).

I do think they need to tweak the coding with eggs unless they're happy for people to quit. Anything which you have caught/hatched loads of, the chance of hatching them should decrease. Will lead to less frustration and then people are more likely to carry on playing.

I reckon if you get the breeder badge up, the chances of finding better eggs or to say the least, the distance required to hatch eggs should decrease by 10% for the first badge, 15% for the second badge and 25% for the third badge. This will give more of an incentive to try and hatch eggs. =l
Since the other badges have uses, why not that one?

Guys, managed to find a 564CP 82% Iv Dratini today, evolve into a Dragonaire or no?
Currently sitting on 75 Dratini candy.

I've noticed a nest area too. Seems to have changed from an Ekans nest to a Growlithe nest (thank god!).
Found a 807CP Growlithe the other day but has only decent IVs (only go with generic IVs and if it says "Can battle with the best of them", then I calculate).

Do have a 490CP Growlithe but has 84% IVs so, will probably evolve that and work on powering up if it has a good move set.

I know you're not playing anymore but you seemed to have a lot of knowledge

Do you know if duel weaknesses are capped or if the multiplier applies against both?

I'm tempted to power up a Raichu purely for attacking Gyarados if the duel weakness does apply..

Dual weaknesses apply. Electric type attacks will have a (1.25)^2 times greater effect. If you use a Raichu, you also get STAB so it will be even higher. As I said before, this is the main reason that Gyarados is Water/Flying - it would be too OP if it was Dragon/Water.

I don't think I'd recommend using a Raichu though, they aren't very powerful in POGO if I remember. An Electabuzz is probably your best bet, it can be a pain in the arse to power up though.

Ehh I have a Raichu with thunder shock/thunder. Cba to find a decent Electabuzz and try to power up.
