Use it when you have enough evolves to last the 30 mins.
Each evolve is about 30 seconds

it actually helped me catch my first nice pokemon an hr ago!
Finally caught my first dragonite by talking to some people at the vancouver pokemon go live chat thing

People report pokemon sightings and stuff on the go, pretty handy
Im still pretty low level right now though

Make sure you're at a triple or quadruple lure when you drop it, because every thing you do is doubled for XP
200xp for catching a pokemon you already own
1200xp for catching a brand new pokemon you don't own
100xp for each pokestop you spin
1000xp for evolving pokemon
That's why Pidgey's are so damn useful in leveling up, because it only takes 12 Pidgey candies to give you 1000xp with a lucky egg. I'd find a spot that has a trip/quad lure that also has a lot of other pokestops within close walking distance so you can maximize the XP gained from constantly walking around and hitting pokestops and catching pokemon. I didn't use my first lucky egg until I had about 22 pokemon ready to evolve.
https://pokeassistant.com/main/pidgeyspam
Use this tool to decide if your pokemon is worth evolving for keeps or whether you should save the candies for another higher CP version of that pokemon (applies more for the higher level guys than the lower levels)

If you have enough pokemon to evolve to last the entire 30 minutes then that's the most efficient use of the lucky egg time, and you won't need to be near any lures.

07-26-2016, 01:43 PM
This is sorta not NEWS, but thought it was interesting (for me atleast). Knowing which pokemon has the highest potential. Dragonite I guess was a given :P
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HIndIxuspQ
Not surprised Charizard made the list over the other 2 starters.
I wonder how much CP Gengar can get... I like Haunter and Gengars ;p
I'm NOWHERE near far enough into the game to utilize that information though hahaha
EDIT: apparently there is a list already doh, I'm so behind lol

That's the other way of doing it, but most people don't wanna wait to have 60 pokemon to evolve. It takes like 20-30 seconds for each evolution from clicking the button to when the entire slow ass animation ends.

You need to transfer to get more candies anyway. The calculator said you can evolve 60 in like 30 minutes. So 60*12 candies per evolve. 720 candies to evolve 60 pidgeys for 60,000 XP. Someone else can do the exact math but its something like this.

Evolve Pidgeys along with Weedles and Caterpies all 3 only take 12 candy to evolve most common/easy to catch. Save the Eevee's as they each take 25 candies. Same EXP with lucky egg 1000 per evolution.

Yea I'm saying since lucky egg is only 30 min its better to prioritize the 3 12 candy evolutions ahead of the 25 one. I've done 62 Pidgey evolutions in an 30 min, had to do it on WIFI no lures no incense no catching just straight evolving.

I think it registers you shuffling, and that slowly adds up. Not 100% on that, but seen a video where someone taped it to their ceiling fan and it slowly adds up your distance.

GPS on mobiles isn't precise. I have PG installed on a spare workphone that doesn't have SIM. It's, basically, sitting at my desk all day. My avatar still walks around occasionally due to the (in)accuracy of the GPS. The most the avatar will move is few meters, occasionally.

You get a small amount of satellite drift as they move overhead and adjust to your position. This is why your avatar moves. It will not detect any actual movement under 3m. If you ever geocached you would understand lol
Berz out.
One way I "cheat" is to just load up Pokemon and throw my phone in my cup holder and have it pick up some distance whenever I'm driving. It doesn't register all of it because you're going way too fast for a normal walking pace, but it still picks up some.

Any recommendations on a good portable charger/battery pack?
I highly recommend any of the Anker ones off Amazon.ca or .com. Most of the smaller ones are usually only good for 1 charge for your phone, so if you're only getting it to play Pokemon then they should be more than enough. The bigger ones carry a much higher charge that can fully recharge most smartphones several times, but they're also bigger and heavier.

I think I have the previous version one. It's a little on the thick side, but it can fully charge most smartphones ~3x. It really depends on you and your use. If you're only going to use it to charge your phone when you're catching Pokemon, then a smaller lipstick style one that can charge your phone once is more than enough.

IV's are like 88% though and moveset is decent, so I started powering up. Takes a lot of candies to power it up from that low though.

Dragonite across the street from the TriLure spot on Nelson and Kingsway.
At work, and was fiddling with the IV calculator on my previous Dragonite. So I turned on Pokemon GO to check his stats, and the first thing I see is a wild Dragonite! Quite the coincidence.
Unfortunately, the new Dragonite's IVs are below average, so if anyone misses it, don't feel too bad.

The latest update prompted a pretty big community backlash.
First they hid the footsteps thing instead of fixing the feature. Next, Pokevision and similar sites/apps have been offline.
I've heard that Niantic is horrible at PR from it's Ingress days and it's starting to look that way. Their boss' twitter was hacked. Reddit and other communities are organizing refunds via Play and Apple stores. At the same time people are starting to get bored of the game because there isn't a lot to do except for grinding. Gym pokemon are well ahead of a casual player or someone who started late that it's impossible to catch up. With a lack of features and nerfed tracking... what a mess.

For me when I go pokemon hunting I always have pokevision up so I check if there are any rare nearby. If a rare happens to spwan close I will go there.
Now with pokevision offline and the in game tracking pokemon not working I don't see the point of actually going on hours and hours of Pokemon hunting and hoping for something good. Also the tracker doesn't even work. Both my phone and my co workers' phone will show different Pokemon around us. like WTF we were standing right next to each other. So instead of actually improving the tracking in game, Niantic decided to just disable the function and have all 3rd party tracking apps/website shut down as well.
I am not going ask for a refund but I won't be spending more money on lures till they actually fix the tracking.

I would have been ok if the tracking systems works in game. First they release the 3 steps to show how far Pokemons are from you, it was bugged and cause a lot of issue for their servers. Then they update it so all Pokemons are showing at max distance. Latest updated they even remove it.
Think of it like this you are a tourist visiting Vancouver, when you ask/look at the map for suspension bridge, instead of pointing you where it is, the map only shows you 300m within the suspension bridge and you have to look for yourself. Yea kinda of crappy.
I am perfectly happy if they can show me the pokemons I want to catch within 50m to 100m radius. Their own tracking system isn't working because it cause too much server issue, then they request all other site/apps that tracks Pokemon to stop because it is sending too much request to their services causing. So instead of fixing their own servers they decided to not fix it but just outright block any tracking.
so basically a game is created where the main purpose is to walk around and encounter random pokemon, so you can catch them. instead you want everythings exact location to be shown to you, so you have to do the very minimum to succeed. whats the fucking point then? should be grateful they at least tell you whats in the vicinity

That's awesome hahaha.
I'll never forget my first two dragonites and 3 aerodactyls because it was purely running around trying to figure out if I was getting hotter or colder. Greatest feeling when I actually found it.
The comments I see on twitter/facebook give off the impression that majority of the people never played with the working tracker, and only know how to use pokevision.

If you think of the demand on the servers to have every single person who's playing sending a gps signal to the server. It has to ping the nearby pokemon, calculate the relative distance to you, then adjust the footprints to show how far away you are. You walk a bit and it has to do that all over again, for millions of players at a time. I can see how it would be a huge drain on the system.

I agree, Pokevision basically ruins the fun when everyone knows exactly where everything is all the time.
All the people bitching about it are just spoiled. Basically they had aimbot and now it's taken away and they are whining "omg you mean I can't just turn on a 3rd party unauthorized app, left-click and get 20 headshots in a row?? fuck this I quit"
Thing is Pokevision could have set it up where it's similar to the in-game tracking system and just give you a rough distance of where each pokemon is, within a radius.
I hope they fix the tracker soon though because I don't feel like going out to grind with zero hope of finding a rare. 2 nights ago I was at Metrotown and some people drove past us and said "Snorlax on Boundary!" ... I didn't get a chance to ask them Boundary and what because fuck that the street is so long I ain't driving up and down aimlessly lol

I find the lack of consistency really annoying now. Is there a percentage algorithm to the balls and cp relation or is it completely utterly random?

The trend will probably pick back up once the tracker is fixed. It's kind of pointless to sit at the lures to only farm pidgeys all day with no idea at all if a Dragonite is 20 steps away. The tracker not only doesn't show steps, it's completely broken and inaccurate, almost random. The 'mons that were popping up were not even on my Nearby list at all.

It's too bad you can't throw away eggs so you are forced to hatch all the crappy 2/5k eggs regardless. I got a 62cp Onix from my only 10km egg lmao.
Can anyone confirm if the "level" of the egg is upon getting it, incubating it or hatching it? I think I got the 10k egg at around level 9, but didn't hatch it until level 20.

Not confirmed but i realized the eggs i get i hatch by my work are all the same
Not sure if i understand correctly what you said, but 2/5/10k egg have a set group of pokemon they will hatch. Location where your eggs hatch does no make a difference
Because I can increase CP/level through Stardust but IV is permanent correct?
Only downfall is that I need to use more Stardust?
It depends on your goal, but what you said is correct. So a pokemon with perfect IV is 15attack/15def/15stamina.
Snorlax BASE 0% IV so 0/0/0
180atk/180def/320stamina
Snorlax 100% IV 15/15/15
195atk/195def/335stamina
The difference between two level 30 pokemon 0% vs 100% IV(the max level a pokemon can go right now) won't make a huge difference the way the battle system is right now, unless it get changed drastically. Good dodging will make up for a lower IV %. What is very important right now is the pokemon move set.
100% IV Dragonite with steel wing and hyper beam will lose to a 60% IV Dragonite with Dragon Breathe and Dragon Claw.
You can use PokéAdvisor (http://www.Pokeadvisor.com) and it'll tell you a pretty accurate IV % for ALL your pokemon so you can see which one to keep and such. Keep in mind it's more rare for the 3 starter pokemon to have a high IV % (80%+ is consider rare) and almost impossible to find a Charizard , Blastoise or Venasaur with 60%+. You have a better chance finding a 100% IV perfect move set Dragonite then a 80%+ Blastoise. IV % will carry over with evolution.
Pokemon from hatched eggs also have a better chance at a higher IV % then Pokemon's caught in the wild.

hatched a 553cp 100% IV eevee today
time to scrap the 57% vaporeon and try again
good thing eevees are everywhere in HK
This game is losing it's appeal really quickly.
Was at BCIT earlier and it was so dead there.

People here still paying? Just curious what you're goals are? I'm focusing not so much on catching them all but rather getting the strongest Pokemon with high IVs and ideal movesets. Niantic had indicated the game is only at 10% of what they had in mind so rather than power leveling the gf and I are just enjoying the process and collecting the strong Pokemon which hopefully becomes useful somewhere down the line when gym battles change.
Most proud of these babies. Eeveelution trick worked on my 100% vaporeon for the second time. Maybe it's luck since there's a 1/3 chance of getting it but still.

Is Vaporeon still the best eevolution? I know it got nerfed, but just wondering if I should evolve my 91.1% eevee into a vaporeon.

I noticed that sometime when I enter the same colour gym and I try to join, it does not give me the option to join even though there are only 2 other Pokemon in the gym. I've tried training/fighting and even though I won sometime I can join and sometime I can't join the gym. What do I need to do?

^its 1 pokemon per level.
For example, a Level 3 gym lets your colour team put in 3 Pokemon to defend it.
A level 10 gym lets you put in 10 pokemon.
In your case, it must have been a level 2 gym.

The gym system is slightly skewed.
It's far easier to bring gym points down than it is to raise it up.

How do How does the gym go up in level? By training?

From what I've read, Vaporeon is still the best but Flareon is a close 2nd. Jolteon is the worst, CP wise and attacks, but could be a good counter against water-type.

Does IV matter for Magikarps?
I have 157cp 88% and 141cp 98% or does it only matter when its evolved with the desired movesets of dragon breath/ Hydro pump -- bite/Hydro pump?

IMO keep all your high IV% and evolve the highest IV%. if you get shitty moves, start farming more karps. you might end up with an even higher IV then any of your current prospect of karps.
That 10% between IV can matter a little to alot; depending on what the max IV is.

stock up on as many pidgeys and weedles as you can possibly have
when you have enough candies and pokemon to evolve 60 of them in a row then that's when you drop your lucky egg and just evolve those 60 for the next 30 minutes. it takes roughly 30 seconds from the start of the evolution to when you can start the next one

It seems like most of the egg hatches IV has dropped averaging to 80% now
farming pokemon in the wild in nest gives the lowest IV and random spawns gives higher
