My squad. That 1465 Archanine is a bitch- the 1261 dude fairs better in gym battles by far. Wasted a ton of stardust and candy on those fuckers but I'm looking forward to evolving that 724 Growlithe tho.
I've hatched 5 10km eggs now. 2 Omanytes, a Hitmonlee, 610 Psyduck, and some other BS Pokemon. Best so far from an egg was a 675 Clefairy from a 5km egg.
Laughing my ass off at the entitled whiners crying that Pokemon escape balls and run away from you now. Oh you mean its becoming more like the actual game?
There appears to be some kind of bug that happens to me where no matter what CP Pokemon(as low as a fucking CP 12 Pidgey+excellent curveball!!!) and no matter if I threw a Razz or even Ultra Balls they pop out immediately and run off. Happens maybe once a week and it's always when I have an Incense and a Lucky Egg active for the entire duration. I usually notice the bug quickly without wasting too many items but on one occasion I wasted items on about a dozen straight Pokemon.
Interestingly, I didn't have a single Pokemon escape from a ball until I hit level 7.
But between this bug, the nearby Pokemon bug, the gym system being a complete waste of time, the lack of trading, the lack of gameplay explanation(Stardust, candy, CP/XP scaling- I have a 547CP Ponyta that's 3/4 full CP, brother has a 312CP Ponyta whose bar is more full), the restriction of pokemon for players distant from cities, and the obvious OP Pokemon(Dragonite, Archanine, Vaporeon, etc) this game should have in big letters that it's in early stage development and that your mileage will vary. Also, before the updates I intended to buy 25x Incense but instead it bought 75 Incense with one finger press. Same thing happened with the Lucky Eggs. And yeah, I'm that guy who bought 14,500 PokeGold for $100.
