What, no Pokemon Go thread?

Not yet, no. Probably this evening, 10pm here is when stuff normally starts.

On another topic, a friend is in search of international friends to get eggs from gifts. If anyone would like some more Belgian friends, you can add him, his friend code is 4168 5778 7660. Thanks :)
I added your friend, and our Mr. Hobo (aka Strider). Please apologize for me if i don't send enough gifts. Right now I'm lucky if I get one spin a day, and it doesn't always give me gifts. :(
 
This event went amazingly well for me. I know my husband will cringe when he reads this, but the magic tablet really turned things around for me. I did so many events with nothing and so many Ho ohs with nothing and the tablet really came through for me. I will never update or change it lol.

A certain Hobo got a shiny Ho oh on his second try with the very same Iphone that denied me lol. He and the phone were clearly in cahoots lol.
 
Remember I said I got 0 shiny eevees on my girlfriend's account?
First egg I hatch for het 9 eggs quest, bam, high-iv shiny eevee. Pugh.
 
Last weekend at the Ho-oh event, I went 1 for 3, and only on my last try. Mr. Z caught his Ho-oh first round. Li'l Z caught 2 Ho-ohs, including a level 27something shiny on his first try.

Of course, I'm the only one who cares about having a full Pokedex, so :mad::mad::mad:

(BTW, this kid is a magnet for shinies when we take him on raids. I swear it's like the game knows he's a kid and goes, "Oh, here's a shiny, little guy! Enjoy!")
 
That’s awesome!! Congrats!
Post automatically merged:

I wrote to Niantic and for kids under 13, they will supposedly be automatically completing the social parts of the Celebi quest for them.

Today was the first time I participated in a special event in earnest. My sister and I went down to central London and attached ourselves to a large group of raiders, and we went from gym to gym beating up Moltreses.

Got two shinies. :)
That’s awesome, congrats!!

I’m heading out later with a group to try my luck :)
 
Well, today went well. Was the first time I went out on one of these days too and I'm glad I did.

I got 0 shinnies out of 16 raids with two accounts. RNGesus hasn't lined me for quite some time. No shiny Arti, Zap, Moltres, snubbull, houndour, natu, wingull,... last one I found was Minun, I think.
 
Had some minor issues (network errors, burned a couple passes due to timing issues) but otherwise had a successful raiding day! Also got a weather-boosted 96% which is now my best IV Moltres, so pretty happy about that!
 
Shoot, I was going for "Two Hands," as in two-handed. My player is based on Revy from Black Lagoon. I guess it works well enough, unless you have a better suggestion.
 
Ah, yes, it means "two hands". There isn't really a different phrase in Chinese to distinguish between "two hands" and "both hands".

Yeah, I tried plugging in “simultaneous hands” and it just spit back 同时动手 or 同時手.

Next event and raid bosses:
Professor Willow’s Global Research Challenge Ends with a Power-Packed Ultra Bonus Event!

-> All three birds in L5 raids 'till 20/09 with shiny potential
-> 20/09 till 20/10 - Mewtwo in L5 raids
-> More Kanto Pokémon will appear all over the world
-> Some regionals (Tauros, Kangaskhan, Farfetch'd, Mr Mime) will be available from Alolan eggs all through the month of September. Bit sad here, because except for Tauros, those are exactly all the ones I already have.
 
-> Tangela and Porygon have also been added to the Alolan eggs (the regular varieties). I assume this is in anticipation for the release of their evolutions in Gen 4.
-> Shiny Grimer and Geodude are in the game. I can't imagine anyone gives a fig about Grimer, but Golem's still one of the best rock attackers in the game (behind Smack Down Tyranitar and possiblt Rhyperior once he's released) so that hunt is ON.
