Here are some of my favorite (though not necessarily highest CP) pokemon I've captured.
What, no Pokemon Go thread?

I live in rural Virginia..my town is .93 (that's less than 1, yo) square miles in size, and has like 1200 people. I'm still catching stuff.
Though granted, a lot of that stuff is pidgeys and rattatas
I think he means truly rural, as in middle of nowhere. I'm in the same boat. Nothing at all near my house. I can only play it when I'm in town.
This. I live in woods.
Bah..that should bewhere the most wild pokemon are 
Yeah, it's kind of a bummer. It's built on ingress though, which is an urban exploration game. I really hope they do expand it to rural areas. It would be fun to play it on hiking trails or in the woods.Bah..that should bewhere the most wild pokemon are
I am never going be competitive with this game...
It's a separate app that uses the camera, and there is fighting (but don't ask me, I'm only level 4 and apparently you can't battle 'till level 5?). You walk around looking for points of interest, where you can pick up pokéballs and assorted stuff, and occasionally you'll get a signal there's a pokemon nearby....which you then go into the camera AR whatever version to try and catch.
I just walked around for about an hour in my neighborhood, and saw one PoI in a closed-off park, one in a pay-to-enter part of the subway. And a few of the pokemon I saw were too far off the street into private property to reach from public ground. I can easily see this leading to people going into yards, hopping fences, whatever.

So instead of roaming all over town like a weirdo just go to the Pokestop nearest to you and set down some incense. Nothing weird about a 50 year old dude hanging out in a public place and setting out "lures" to attract activity to him, right?
...also, what's the deal with eggs, can you only purchase them, or can you find them at Pokestops and such? I haven't gotten out with it too often yet. This would finally come out when Yoshi doesn't feel like walking so much anymore.

Incense follows you around, lures stay in place....Though I don't know how effective Incense is. And it'll only give you the normal types for the area.

im sorry i got the terminology wrong in my joke.
On the map, you have a visual animated radius that you can catch pokemon in.
When sitting in my desk, near the front door, my radius covers the neighbors on either side, and the park across the street.
You should never have to ask to go in someone's back yard to catch pokemon unless their back yard is yuuuuge[DOUBLEPOST=1468271065,1468270939][/DOUBLEPOST]
2 kinds of eggs in the game: Lucky eggs, which give a 2x experience boost for 30 minutes, and pokeon eggs, which hatch. You can buy lucky eggs (though I've also gotten them occasionally when leveling up), and you get pokemon eggs from pokestops.[DOUBLEPOST=1468271133][/DOUBLEPOST]...also, what's the deal with eggs, can you only purchase them, or can you find them at Pokestops and such?

Incense seems to give you a "free" pokemon (one that isn't on the map for everyone to see) every 3-5 mins.[DOUBLEPOST=1468271417][/DOUBLEPOST]Oh, so I'm playing team mystic (blue) and every gym in my town was blue.
Woke up from my nap to see this:
Oh, it's on bitches. Don't you dare bring that yellow shit to my neighborhood.
you can't fight people. Only gyms. This does not improve your pokemon, but does give you xp.
If you are the same team as the gym, you can put a pokemon in the gym if there's room. This gives you a daily coin/stardust award. The stardust *can* be used to improve your pokemon, so I guess this is an indirect benefit.
