Anyone else just getting 5k eggs? I'm pretty much walking one at a time and not bothering to notice another Sandshrew hatch.

Pretty much. I just laughed when the announcement came out about "more 5k and 10k eggs!" and I'm like cool, I just see this as "we've increased how many 5k eggs you're gonna get we bet you wanted more of them."

Rumor is Solrock and Zangoose and Volbeat are switching! This is good news for most people I raid with.

Solrock/Lunatone and Zangoose/Seviper already switched once. Still waiting on Illumise to rotate in tho so this is good news.

Zangoose/Seviper have switched thrice already actually, but the long awaited Volbeat/Illumise switch is most welcome.

I've just hopped over to Sweden from the US and I'm gonna be here for two months. What special 'mon stuff should I keep an eye out for here that I can lord over folks when I return to the States?

If Volbeat and Illumise are switching soon, then... there's really nothing. Sorry. You could collect some Mr. Mimes to give people who missed the 7K egg event.

If you're far enough south, then Carnavine, Heracross and Corsola.

If you're not at the rear end end of America, the yeah, there's really nothing else.

Can confirm that this works quite well in Great League. Poison Jab gains energy pretty fast.

The worst Pokemon are of course Riolu and Lucario... They look like they let a 5 year old that's been raised by a tablet playing anime 24/7 design a plastic McDonalds toy.

So it turns out I needed to alter permissions in the Health app to let pogo read the data and not write it. I assumed it would do this when it asked me for permissions.

The good news my soccer game counted and cleaned out all my active eggs. The bad news is I’ve missed out on 2 months of steps and I would probably have a gyrados at this point lol

The reviews are no because his D is that bad. I’m leaving mine at just under 1500 and using him for fun in the Great League.

Yeah, it's pretty obvious what happened there. The bad news is that Northern Europe got pretty unlucky in the regional lottery - Pachirisu, which spawns everywhere else in the frozen north, for some reason doesn't show up there. It's Mimes Only. Going to Europe from America will get you Zangoose/Volbeat/Solrock, if you still need them.

I caught my first wild Snorlax outside a donut shop.

It seemed like an appropriate place to find one.

The only reason I have a Lapras is due to catching one in the wild. Caught a wild Arcanine from my bedroom but I think that's the only level 3 evolve I've gotten in the wild.

There was briefly a Lapras nest on top of my old neighborhood. The next door neighbor and I were texting back and forth any time we spotted one. It was a sad day when they stopped spawning.

Every couple of weeks, well run across something odd and rare. Saw a wild Snorlax yesterday in our subdivision. Today was good, found a lv 1 shiny murkrow, hatched a good riolu (my first), and got 3 Aerodactyl quests.
