Here's a crappy MSPaint drawing of the evolution lines.

Eevee evolves into one of the three after it.

If there's a dot at the end of the line, the pokemon evolves into the pokemon on the next line.

I agree with all this except the candies. one of my favorite things is that you cant buy stardust/candies. you have to catch 'mons, hatch eggs, and transfer for that stuff (I.E. play the game.) If you could just buy it it would become a lot more pay to win.

Yeah, if you could buy candy the game would be ruined overnight. Right now you can pay to be lazy but you still have to play the game.

Walking to lunch and a youngish pretty girl and her boyfriend are walking the other way and she's got her phone out going "over here, over here there's one over here," and then she stops and swipes and is all "YES GOT IT" while he has the long suffering look of a guy waiting for his girl to try on clothes at the mall or something.

Coming back and a group of construction workers are eating lunch. One huge bald tatted up guy has his phone out and says "motherfucker, just another fuckin diglet" while his buddies nod sympathetically

I'm not sure this is a very good game, but at least it makes walking around town hilarious in my area right now.

Honestly this is what makes it a good game. Pokemon bridges all age, gender and racial lines. :3:

Do you need to be within range of a lure's poke stop to benefit? If I chill just outside range would I get extra spawns?

Hey guys! I'm having a good time, what about you?

Questions that nobody may know the answer to:

-Is it locked at 2 people cooperating in a gym battle?
-When doing a double battle, do both participants take damage equally or does the gym AI alternate who it attacks?
-What happens if you attempt to fight a gym while a different team is already in the middle of taking it over?

Just throw a 2k in an incubator and go for a twenty minute walk. It's usually worth it for that candy.

Driving back to the office after getting lunch, saw a huge group of different people standing around in a small median park, all with their phones out. Got suspicious, so I pulled over and opened the app and sure enough there were two pokestops, both with active lures. :3:

In that precise location? Or is it just 'within the general vicinity of this area'

I think rustling grass in general signifies an area where 'mons might spawn. So if you have a one-step pokemon on your radar, and there is some rustling grass nearby, it might be worth checking out.

Do lures ever drop from pokestops like other items, or are you force to buy those?

Feb 2, 2007
Today during lunch at work I walked over to the nearest pokestop, which also happens to have a bench. I sat down on the bench and was still looking at my phone when someone else comes toward the bench looking at their phone intently too. I looked up at them and they asked "... Are you playing Pokemon?" I said I was, and they sat down on the bench too and we introduced ourselves. Turns out it was their first day at my work. Pokemans, bringing people together.

If you were single I bet this would be a great way to meet people, this person was cute.

I have 2 that I didn't buy. Most likely they are level-up rewards, but maybe you can get them from pokestops?

Nah, once you have unlocked them (level 8 or so iirc), they are fairly common drops.

Went to the Legends mall in Sparks NV for about half an hour on my lunch. Caught a ton of stuff (552 Rhydon, best thing I've caught so far). Lots of stops there, many of which were on lures. I left with less pokeballs than I arrived with, which was definitely not the intent.

At least half the people there were playing. Mostly 20 something males.

yeah, you can park pokemon in the gyms with less fear of losing the gym

you can then collect 10 pokecoins and 500 stardust per gym up to a max of ten gyms (100 coins / 5000 stardust) every day

I don't know if this is just a bullshit rumor, but I had the same problem on my iPhone and I read that turning off LTE data fixed it. I tried it myself and it certainly seems to have fixed things.

I get that a lot when I change from wifi to cell data, like if I'm walking by a lot of xfinity free hotspots. If you care, you can turn off your wifi so it's always cell data.
