They hatch Alolans: Sandshrew, Geodude, Meowth, Grimer, and Diglett, which can all be shiny now.

To make things easier, the evolve button on your eevee will change from a question mark to a picture/silhouette of an Espeon or Umbreon depending on if it’s night or day.

And also make sure you're somewhere where the GPS signal won't randomly drop out, because if the game loses GPS while you're evolving you'll end up with a Flareon/Vaporeon/Jolteon because reasons.

Thanks, everyone! I've already earned the 2 Candy, so I just need to evolve. And I'm guessing it'll work the same way for the Evolve Eevee Into Umbreon At Night quest, so that'll help.

You can use them in raids to determine the moveset of the raid boss; whether that's remotely worth it compared to "throwing in a random pokemon and reading the charged move off the screen" is left as an exercise to the reader

Basically no, Ditto doesn't have a use besides being a gimmick. They copy everything of its opponent except its stamina, which for Ditto is 134 and that's comparable to an unevolved Nidoran (130) meaning it's beat up very easily. You can maybe scare off kids or newbies as a gym defender but that's about it.

Is the Jump-Start Research quest limited time or is it here to stay? I wanna use a Lucky Egg on step 5 but I won’t be able to see anyone for the trades till the weekend.

It only goes away if you don't start it. As long as you've started it, even so far as to just see what the first tasks are, you'll be fine.

You're good.


Didn't have much luck finding a raid group, and the ones on the discord sounded like they had a bad time trying to get enough people, but I did get the last Groudon that spawned and did a few smaller raids, so it was a nice couple of hours in the sun.

I had a day off and in the end made just under 1.5 million XP today thanks to an ultra friend, finishing a ton of research tasks, and grinding level 5 raids/catching Pokémon with the extra long lucky eggs on. The extra catch XP really adds up if you’re somewhere you can catch continually + are using the quick catch trick. Definitely feels like this is going to be my best day XP-wise for a really long time.

I'm basing it off former time related special research (Spiritomb) that my sister has not come close to finishing and still has banked.

Potentially could be different this time but I doubt it.

Some of these things are just incredibly rare. I've still never seen the "catch a dragon-type" research and I've been rummaging for a "hatch 3 eggs" for months, too.

I ended up friending way too many people to regularly gift to. Are most people okay with me opening gifts even if I don't send one in return most of the time? I feel like that's okay since exp is the main point, but I do end up feeling kinda selfish. What's the consensus on that?

The daily send cap is higher than the daily open cap, and urban players will frequently spam-send gifts far more frequently than they open them. If you reliably open gifts there’ll be people who live on pokestops begging you to friend them.

e: I’ve got 70 friends and frequently I’ll not be able to send out a full load of 10 gifts at a time

Opening gifts only is great for me. The open limit actually makes people who don’t send gifts very helpful.
