To my fellow Pokemon Trainers: How screwed am I? I started playing Pokemon Go a few days later than it was released and now I'm always playing catch up.. Almost all of my friends have multiple 800+ CP Pokemon and I'm stuck with this lineup.. Is there any chance I can catch up? Any tips or suggestions would be much appreciated.

I am jelly of that Tangela and Hitmonlee. I am almost 21 and haven't even come across either of those. To level up catch everything you see. Yes, that includes rattata and pidgey. Catch the fuckers until you are tired of them and then catch some more. When you have a ton of dudes that you can evolve pop a lucky egg and evolve all those suckers for mass amounts of xp.

Don't evolve to the final evolution if they have 3 evolutions either. You just want to evolve pidgey into pidgeotto and stop there for example. However the one exception to this would be if you don't have your first pidgeot. In that case get the final evoltion at least one time for the bonus new pokemon xp.

Just realized you have clefairy too. I don't have one of those either.
The game looks fucking amazing, but I just decided not to even try it. My buddies tell me about the Pokemon they caught and I literally don't a fuck.

Thanks for the advice. That's something I tried today and it worked a lot. I don't think I'll have issues leveling myself up.. When it comes to the Pokemon it's so tedious because there's a finite amount of Stardust available and I'm not sure if I should specialize with one Pokemon or level them all up equally.
