Some Pokémon, such as Alakazam, Rhydon, and Gengar will have their CP increased. Others will have their CP lowered. These changes will allow a more balanced and competitive battling and training experience in Gyms. We will continue to adjust the CP going forward to improve the game balance when necessary. Trainers, It has been an incredible experience since we launched Pokémon GO a few short months ago in July. We are passionate about creating experiences that encourage exploration and promote exercise. We are humbled that hundreds of millions of you around the world have joined us on this journey. So we would like to say thank you - and what better way to say thank you than to celebrate our community. So, starting November 23rd at 00:00 UTC and going through November 30th 00:00 UTC, we will double the amount of XP and Stardust you receive when completing in-game actions.

GLASSJAW Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 god, yesterday before I found out about the event I used a lucky egg and was grinding out the rest of level 25 or 26 or whatever it was. just reading now that if you use lucky egg this week it'll be 4x the XP. argh, I should have waited just one day.

Apple Juice Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I'm kinda pissed that I spent a lot of my stardust on powering up my Victreebels and Wigglytuffs only to find out the CPs got deducted by a bunch. I can at least recoup the stardust through the 2x event but still.. Grinding and powering them up took a long time.. People are now reporting Ditto is catchable too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly Mattias Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Finally caught a couple of dittos. Seems like they're only useful if they are a higher level than the pokemon being fought in the gym. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 anyone found much time/energy to play throughout the winter events? i havent been playing as much because i've been stuck at work, stuck with family, or just stuck inside because its cold, but i've managed to hatch 2 Cleffas, 2 Igglybuffs, and 1Elekid Plus, with this starter event, I've finally been able to get a Charizard, and I'm just 15 candies away from Venusaur. can't believe how long that has taken me, but yeah. got lucky the other day and found my first Porygon (1028cp) as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilight Sparkle Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Moon has taken up all of my time. I hatched a shiny female Rowlet <3 Turned on go when I was hanging out with my buddy last night and caught a few charmander and I now have venusaur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainly Mattias Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 It's treacherous walking about with people not shoveling their walks. Still playing and getting my daily incubator but no luck on hatching any of the new gen 2s. Caught a venosaur a couple of days ago. Still no charizard or even charmeleon though. Has anyone even seen a chansey or tangela? I have never seen one.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only seen Chansey on a few gyms, but never seen one in the 'wild' before. I spent all of my ultra balls and a handful of blue ones on a Dragonair today. It's CP is like 1250 or something, so I was really excited.. but nope, turns out to have a low as hell IV. what a waste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you live that you aren't finding starters everywhere? I caught so many this week, but they're all junk except maybe 1 or 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the eggs I'm getting are 5k so maybe eventually.. And yes, there are starters everywhere but they're too far away to walk to with the ice rink roads around me in hilly Vancouver. No one shovels their walks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
