It seriously motivates exercise if you like pokemon and would rather grind instead of pay for games

It's fun in my opinion and it'll probably get better with updates. If you don't like it you can just delete it.

I just don't get it. Why are there more Pokemon in more populated areas? You'd think that a Nidoran would prefer to live near the wooded part of town, not in the middle of the road outside of Outback Steakhouse Gym.

>>27013067

Appreciate it. I'll play with it tomorrow then.
>>
>>27013102
>>27013000

The pokemon seem to be more diversified in points of interest rater than populated areas. The pokestops were generated by the creator's other app, Ingress, which is basically the same thing but without a pokemon theme

>>27013102
I haven't found any Pokemon around my house since the game came out (Aus release), besides using incense.

Do you have to leave the app open and active the whole time? Do people find anything without moving if they aren't near gyms and Pokespots?

Unintentionally became a team rocket member/poison specialist.

Missed a gastly on my morning walk because it appeared to be undone stranger's back yard. No way I'm getting a trespassing charge for this game.

Gonna try to snag a few more pokémon at work today. Hoping to get some other types so I can demolish the spearow and venonat gym nearby.

I don't think they have a "muh 151" mindset at all, they just wanted to throw the game out there now. I'm sure more will follow soon.

Welp, looks like I've already hit a pay wall.
Got a few pokestops between my house and work, guess I'll have to stock up on my way to my shift tomorrow. Pretty hesitant to put money in just yet, I want to wait and see how the next few updates go. There's a lot that needs ironing out, I've already experienced a few big bugs.

I've got two more eggs, but they're both 10 KMs, which I have a mile on.

Pretty neat game, got a 450~ Pidgeot and 3 gyms with my pokemon as their boss.

Most of my local pokespots are in a cemetery though. I don't know what that ingress dude was thinking.

At E3 they said they would add newer gens. I'm sure it'll be free.

I need to go back out and try to find some kind of place of interest soon, though, because I'm running low on balls; the suburbs I live in have absolutely nothing, but there's a shopping plaza in walking distance, so hopefully at least one of the buildings has a Pokespot.

Not sure, I assume so? Now that I found a pidgey and Bellsprout and Venonat in my room, I'm caught up to the 5 mon mark I was before, so It doesn't matter too much to me.

I just walked like a mile, didn't find anything that wasn't deep into peoples' yards or houses. How close do you have to be to trigger the encounter?

So, for those of us with Android tablets, any idea on how to find this gaem?

I'd also love to give it a try and possibly die as well due to nogs or so forth, but unsure how to find/DL it yet.

Nexus 6P, runs great for me, the battery doesn't drain as much as people say it does. I had my hotspot on for a friend, full brightness and listened to Spotify. It drained about 2x as fast but that's still a good 6 hours for me
>>
If your trainer level is higher do you get stronger pokes? Like if im level 2 i find pidgey and level 15 find pidgeot

Also does the little rustling grass mean anything or is it just cosmetic, i feel like if i go close i would find a pokemon but idk if it is true
>>
My school is a pokestop. This is all I could've asked for. Now I literally have no excuse to skip class.
>>
>>27013422
Every now and then I'll get a pokemon or two that pop up when I'm home. Nothing good though, Pidgey, caterpie, weedle, rattata. Had one Pigeoto and one eevee too. Caught the eevee, but the Pidgeoto fucked off.
>>
Damn servers have been down for the past half hour, I finally found an unclaimed gym but I can't get it

>>27018426
Half the time I dont find jack shit, but I think the way the connection works is garbage because I've had gyms freeze up. Just drove 4 miles back from lunch and it was saying all the same pokemon were 3 feet from me.

I went out at like 2 in the morning to see what we have around, and we have Dratini nearby

How do gym battles work? How do you attack? When do you know to dodge?

I just spammed swiping left and right and that seemed to almost work. no idea how to attack though or use special moves?
>>
>>27013944
i would have actually executed you

what i want to know is why gyms can have more than one person defending them

is that because they're on the same team or something?

i have a gym next door and there's two different people guarding the gym, if you beat one you have to beat the second one

is it because they're both on the same team? if i beat them am i gonna be #3?

PokeStops give them pretty regularly
You have a single Incubator to hatch one that you can use infinitely, or you can pick up extra 3-use only incubators from pokestops pretty rarely so you can do more than one at once

Why are there still people asking basic ass questions. I had most of this shit down before the game was even out. Hell even serebii has the answer to most of these questions right there on their page. The real question around here is what team exactly do they have fixing this server issue because it's been down for almost 12 hours for me. I have 3 gyms right around the corner from me just waiting to be fucked up and I can't login to make that happen.

In the Ingress story, portals are tied to man-made points of interest, because portals are places that affect human thought.
This is admittedly a massive oversight by Niantic, as Pokemon are generally found in wild areas.
