Fair point.What do you do with Dittos?
I spent forever looking for one. Now I have five. I know I'm hoarding them because of how hard it was to get my first one, but is that pointless?
They must be stupidly hard to level seeing as how uncommon it is to find them, unless you use rare candy, which you'd need a truckload of.

I find them pretty pointless. Only hope is that the game introduces breeding at some point many years in the future.
Are RichBlyth from here?
As with most meta irrelevant mon, I tend to just keep the highest CP and best IV one I catch. Just in case they ever become useful.
Thanks. At least I now know I'm not missing something special about the little blob.
They are. Not sure on username though
Ok, sorry RichBlyth for opening your present without trying to reach you. You had kept my present the whole time so I assumed you were in control.
No worries
@Heardy are you good to go best during community day? I'll have an egg on all event
Community event starts at 11 tomorrow right? Fine by me mate. I must remember to put an egg on!
Yep, 11-5
Check field research guys - Misunderstood mischief has updated. Catch a Furfou is a a task. One appeared straightaway but I’d not updated the research before so had already caught it.
Hopefully another one appears!!

Thanks for this. Just logged on and updated research first before catching the Furfrou that was there. I'm sure you'll find another.
@Heardy if you take a snapshot, Furfrou photobombs.
Cool - thankfully another has turned up! Think it’s part of the “fashion week” challenge.
I was just worried it was a rare one and I’d screwed up catching it too early!
So, yeah, 5 great throws in a row... easy, no worries.
There's no time limit at all, so yes, don't worry.So, yeah, 5 great throws in a row... easy, no worries.
If you want to get it done asap, then I'd just prio easy throws. For me, of the boosted spawns, that's Hoothoot, Drilbur, Larvitar, (Dwebble), Oddish, Mankey, Aipom.
Always annoying to fail on the 4th or 5th, though.
if you really struggle with Great or Excellent throw, there's a neat trick to do it :

Basically you hold your ball, let the circle gets smaller, then when it's small enough release your finger from the screen.
Then wait until the wild pokemon attacks - when it's in attacking motion, right at the end you immediately throw the ball (before the circle appears).
The youtube should give clearer idea.
Very helpful during raids to get that excellent throws.

Or use the banana which will stop the pokemon jumping around making it easier.So, yeah, 5 great throws in a row... easy, no worries.
Cheers guys. I actually completed the 5-in-a-row just now trying to catch Genesect. I think it helped having the catch area stay the same for multiple throws. It kept messing me up trying to catch wild pokemon with their different sizes and distances.
Shame you didn't get that task when Furfrou was knocking about. It was ridiculously easy to get excellent throws on.So, yeah, 5 great throws in a row... easy, no worries.
Yeah, I think I got spoiled by that.
Having to get 5 great throws in a row is an absolute nightmare.
I struggled with it at first, especially when trying to get my first Spinda reward, but it's all about choosing the right targets, as some just aren't worth trying.
I always get cocky on the 5th and try on something tiny or that moves alot. Very rarely works.
@blythy we are one more interaction away from BF, I have a arranged a lucky egg for 9pm Sunday (10th) with other friends to level up, would that work for you too?
Man, Niantic get on my tits. What was with that special free box today? I had no space to open it, so I left it to claim later. Now it's gone. Apparently it was only available for 6 hours. Who knew?
Am I missing somewhere obvious where they put announcements of stuff like this?

If it wasn't for a couple of subreddits making posts about it I would have missed it too. Niantic are really shit for short timed tasks and gifts.
What was in it?
x1 Fast TM
x1 Charged TM
x50 Poke Ball
x1 Lucky Egg
It's just daft from a marketing angle... it's not a flash sale, it's a freebie to celebrate their birthday!
Ah, not bothered about that. I'd have to bin a load of stuff to be able to buy it, then I'd just bin the 50 pokeballs anyway.
Yeah, I would've binned the balls too. I would've liked the rest, but support said, "sorry, not sorry".
You can tell you guys don't have gotchas... Normal balls are my most sought after item! Shame I didn't realise that box was available either.
Sure, unless you want to do it anytime during comm day? I'll have an egg on 11-5
Sure no worries will open up during com hours, would you like me to tag you here before I open it?
Anyone know who RobbieAndDaddy is? I've done a search, but it came up blank.
How do I go about messaging Biggins to coordinate an egg @Damien ? If I click on their name in the post you quoted them in I just get an Access Denied.
@NotThatSoph Would you also like to coordinate a lucky egg before leveling up friends?
It's from a conversation. I'll add you to it.
Thanks.
