Saw my first Larvitar today. I really want one to replace Snorlax as my buddy so I was pretty stoked when it popped up. Low cp, green circle, but I didn't want to take any chances. Razz berry, ultra ball, great throw.... break out.... run. 
But then right after that I got a 10 km egg and 7 Snorlax candies so I guess maybe that makes up for it. http://i.imgur.com/RlksGFFl.png A couple of days ago the first Larvitar I saw ran on me and I was bummed out, but about 10 mins after that I got a 10 km egg. This is what hatched out of it:

Niantic just made some major changes to move stats and "quick" quick attacks are back. A lot of good moves that got nerfed after the gen 2 update are good again.
Those Blissey (along with every other defender) should be a lot easier to take down now. |

I also caught my first Houndoom tonight.
I'm not really familiar with any future generations, but if there is a 'mon that looks more like a demon from 'Doom' I certainly haven't seen it.

I haven't caught anything new in days. Haven't even seen anything new on Sightings. It's nothing but Sentrets, Woopers, Hoothoots, Ledybas, Spinaraks, Sunkerns, Natus, and Hoppips everywhere.
I'm already sick of gen 2. The only thing halfway decent is the occasional Chikorita that gets me a little closer to a Meganium. |

http://i.imgur.com/fwYCzl6l.png http://i.imgur.com/AbgEXFLl.png Same here. I wanted Blissey the most for defense and Tyranitar the most for offense, but after that it was definitely Houndoom (at least among the non-super rare/unobtainables). It has pretty good stats and it looks like a hybrid of a horned demon and a Doberman that can breath fire.

I'm curious what level most of you guys are at. I am slowly grinding my way to level 31 (500,000 XP to get from 30 to 31!) with 208 in my Pokedex.
I stalled out for a while because it got too tedious, but the Gen 2 stuff got me back in and going full steam. At least for now. I'm currently walking with Chansey as my buddy. I'll get my Blissey eventually. |

I'm already sick of gen 2. The only thing halfway decent is the occasional Chikorita that gets me a little closer to a Meganium. It kind of makes sense though. They can't really have all the good stuff and the rarer ones be common and easy to obtain (especially within the first 10 days of gen 2 dropping). Plus we are, at best, 6 months away from gen 3 (probably closer to a year) so it gives people something to look for beyond a couple of weeks after the gen 2 launch. I'm finding it to be a lot like gen 1 thus far. You find a lot of them within the first two weeks, you'll have most of them within the first two months, and then after that you'll work on obtaining those more illusive ones. I can't believe I'm defending Niantic.

I'm currently deployed to the middle east. What I'm seeing here is tons or rhyhorns, machops, mankeys, and geodudes. Sandshrew is the durkhadurkhastani pidgey, with ekans as the rattata. Lots of doduo too. I haven't SEEN a weedle in two months, and can count on one hand the number of pidgeys and rattatas in that same amount of time. Growlith are everywhere and I've probably caught ten porygons. For the new stuff I get tons of snubbuls, cyndaquil, and slugmas. Lots of houndours, chikarita, and sentret. Caught a fully evolved politoad and last night a pinecone and murcrow in my room. At any given moment I can catch hundreds of snubbuls and their evolution. ETA: Growlith, not arcanine. |

Something woke me up in the middle of the night and I couldn't go back to sleep so I fired up GO just to see if there was anything good.
Needless to say I was more than a little surprised when this popped up: 
I was kind of groggy so I thought maybe I was still asleep, but one razz berry, ultra ball, curveball, great throw later... 
I had my first tyrant lizard king.

Thanks. I was pretty stoked as I thought it'd be months until I had my first one. It doesn't have good IV's so I won't be powering it up, but it should make for a good trainer. The 10 Larvitar candies are nice too. I was really surprised that I caught it on the first throw. Even after I used a razz and had selected an ultra ball the ring around it was still a medium shade of red. |

I'm guessing it varies. There's no variation. It's just that, for some reason, it shows one less candy on the "total" screen than on the screen where it shows you the 'mon you just caught. Though it seems to only do it for 1st and 2nd stage evolutions. The two 3rd stage evolutions I've caught it didn't do it for. I used one on a Houndour and the total screen had 5 candies, but then the next screen showed a "+6". |

I know everyone says those apps are safe to use, but I guess I'm a little paranoid about it. Back when GoRadar was active I remember people reporting that they were getting messages from Nianitc saying if they continue to use 3rd party apps then they risk getting banned. After all the time I've spent on this game it would really suck to get banned because I wanted to save 20 seconds finding out the IV's for a Dratini I caught. |

That gym will stand forever. No, it won't. I can singlehandedly take down a Blissey of 3000CP or less with what I currently have in my 'dex. I can almost take down one of 3100+ before the timer expires. My lady friend and I are on the same team. Fighting together, we've yet to encounter a defender or a gym we couldn't take down - regardless of CP or type, or gym level. Most amusing was a Level 10 with 10 2800+ CP Snorlax. It fell in about 45 minutes and that's with attackers of several levels down, before we could really power up the shit outta the things. Blisseys are going to be counterproductive to the game in the long term: As hard as it is to train up a gym after the tweak Niantic made, a really high CP one isn't going to be defeated by a single same-team player. Therefore, the gym cannot be leveled up...and that single player won't be able to join it. You might get your team buddies to help but the odds are against it. Of course, the opposing teams can exploit this "feature" by knocking off everything but the Blissey and leaving it to twist in the wind...thereby incensing most of the other players. |

You had me nodding in agreement until I got to this part. Actually, it's significantly easier to train up a gym "after the tweak Niantic made" earlier this week. Easier to take it down too. I mean yeah, you're not going to be able to use pokmon with half it's CP to get the full 1,000 every training session, but it's not hard either if you use some ideal ones with CP's just a bit lower than the Blissey. It's certainly not impossible to level the gym up. And yeah, some people with take the gym down to as low as it can go and leave the Blissey as the only 'mon there (I do it too sometimes if I'm nowhere near collection time), but people did the same thing with Snorlax. No matter how you slice it Blissey is EASILY the best defender in the game and are definitely not "counterproductive" to strengthening a team's gym (provided someone didn't put a relatively low CP one in the bottom spot, but, again, people did the same thing with Snorlax). |

But I often use my DB/DC Dragonite. As far as type goes it's weak against fighting attacks. However, now that "quick" moves are quick again pretty much any powerful 'mon will due. A lot of lower lvl players are just using Vaporeon with good results provided there isn't a huge CP difference. |

No matter how you slice it Blissey is EASILY the best defender in the game and are definitely not "counterproductive" to strengthening a team's gym (provided someone didn't put a relatively low CP one in the bottom spot, but, again, people did the same thing with Snorlax). Point I was trying to make is that the average person could train up a Level 2 gym by themselves if anything other than a high CP Blissey is in it. Whomever drops one of these into a gym they've just taken over has effectively shut it out for everyone else. That's going to go over like a fart in a space suit with the crowd of players I'm familiar with. |

An ideal moveset maxed machamp is the best way, but a lot of high attackers work. Quote HistoryQuoted:

calcy IV is pretty slick, it screen reads the mons stat page and calculates the ivs based upon character reading the data and plots the arc of the IV

My experiences from a couple days ago are that it's still easy to take one down and hard to train up. Doable, yes, but you'll be at it a while if solo. Snorlax isn't Blissey, as you indicate below.

Actually, it's significantly easier to train up a gym "after the tweak Niantic made" earlier this week. Easier to take it down too.

That's going to go over like a fart in a space suit with the crowd of players I'm familiar with. Well, yeah, of course training up a Blissey isn't easy, but what I was disagreeing with was your comment about how a gym with a high CP Blissey "cannot be leveled up" by a single player. No, Blissey isn't Snorlax, but it's the closest thing we have to compare it to. Point I was trying to make is that the average person could train up a Level 2 gym by themselves if anything other than a high CP Blissey is in it. Whomever drops one of these into a gym they've just taken over has effectively shut it out for everyone else. That's going to go over like a fart in a space suit with the crowd of players I'm familiar with. The average player (which would be mid-high 20's around here) should be able to train up a gym with a high CP Blissey. Like we've said it won't be easy though. But even if the average player couldn't train up a gym with just a high CP Blissey and no open spots: how often does that really happen? Maybe where you live it's different, but around here if that happens it's usually not long before someone comes along and finishes it off. I definitely understand being frustrated trying to train up a gym facing a tank. The worst though are the really low CP tanks. Last week I trained a lvl 7 gym up to lvl 8 facing a 600 cp Snorlax. Last time I ever do that.

Anyone else finding the app is closing a lot more frequently when it's in the background than it use to?
It use to be it could be in the background for 20+ mins and still be open, but now it often can't make it 5 mins before it closes. |

PSA: your chances of a catching a pokemon with a curve ball and a normal throw (non-nice, great, excellent) are actually higher than if you connect with a non-curve great throw.
So if you see a 'mon you really want to catch you're always better off trying for a curve great throw. Even if you miss on the great throw you're still better off because of the curve bonus. |
