I live rurally so nothing ever shows up where I live unless I drop an incence <img alt=":(" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/frown.png.e6b571745a30fe6a6f2e918994141a47.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> I managed to catch a 691CP Seaking after work last night though. That was my best catch so far but my top pokemon is a 1000CP Flareon. Haven't really had a chance to go on a full walking/egg hatching mission yet which is a shame but I figured I walked 4+ kms whilst at work (i work at a video store and had to put away returns all day <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />) so that was surprising

I started getting hopeless about catching new Pokemon as the only noteworthy catch in the past few days has been a high powered Squirtle(I don't play it much but I whish through it at work/other stationary areas), but upon luck today I caught myself an Onix walking towards my car and I got Meowth hatched from an egg. that's probably made my quota for the week. <img alt=":o" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

I'm also Instinct. Where I am in Baltimore it's a billion Rattata, Pidgey, Spearow and Zubats. Suddenly lots of Weedle too. I just transfer them right back after catching. Level 15 now, have caught 52 unique Pokemon. Got a Metapod yesterday which was a new one for me. My Snorlax is still my highest level but only 681cp. Have a decent Exeggcute 426cp but pretty much everything else is below 300.

 

Yeah, Rattata, Pidgey, Spearow and Zubats are everywhere around me & I'm in London so you're not alone. Also a LOT of Drowzie around here so a lot of the time you'll fight at least one high cp Hypno in a gym battle...

 

In fact, my top guys:

Thanks to the Pidgey & Drowzie glut I have a couple of Hypnos and three Pigeots quite well advanced, as well as a great Drowzie waiting to be evolved. The top Golbat I caught at 814 (2 razzberry & a great ball) about 200 metres from my house and the Ponyta hatched out of a 5k egg at that level! And it evolves, so that is going to be awesome :D

 

This guy is still my current fav though :D

I have a whole host of things at low levels waiting to evolve so most of my pokemon get transferred so the Prof can grind them up to make candy for me (that's what's going on, right? :p )

<p>So after weeks of not catching anything special except Onix, I took a joyride with my best friend the other night, I drove around two or three boroughs while he captured Pokémon on my phone. God almighty, that was exhilarating. We found the following</p><p> </p><p>

-Jynx</p><p>

-Poliwag</p><p>

-Tauros</p><p>

-Exeggutor</p><p>

-high CP Venonat</p><p>

-Abra(even though I have a few already)</p><p>

-Shellder</p><p> </p><p>

and my favorite capture yet.. Kabuto. That was a total surprise as I hadn't spotted him in my live mini map online.</p><p> </p><p>

Funny story, right when we headed to catch Exeggutor, there was a big-ass truck in front of us blocking the road, and we guessed he was probably catching him as well. We passed him and it was this big burly looking dude in his 40s, we gave him a salute before moving on. <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

<p>My friend and I decided to go to a park nearby where there are three pokestops all close to each other... we activated lures on two of them. We decide to sit by and wait, we're catching all these Pidgeys and Weedles, just common Pokémon for the most part. At some point, I detected a Jigglypuff in the distance.. far away from the lures, just a block away. I already have him, but they don't come by every day. So I wander off and my friend keeps insisting to stay to take advantage of his lures. As I leave, he yells out "Bulbasaur!!" and I thought he was pulling my leg until I stumble back and spot him.</p><p> </p><p>

I haven't caught Bulbsy before so I was amped up... my friend caught him in two tries. He's at level 10. I used a damned Razz Berry, and a great ball right after(my second great ball try), and he broke free and fled right in front of my eyes. I was at level 15... that certainly confirms about the capture rate decreasing the more levels you go up. That was a kick in the nads</p>

<p>From what I gather levels matter two fold. The higher the level the more likely to get higher cp Pokemon, the lower the level the chance of them running away is increased. But the higher the CP the more chance they have to run away.</p><p> </p><p>

So it's a weird math that gets done to decide if they flee or not.</p>

<p>After a few weeks, I managed to get to level 15. I've managed to capture/evolve 51 different Pokemon, with a few close to evolving (Bulbasaur, Goldeen, Ekans, & Nidoran F). Over the past few days, I managed to capture/hatch the following Pokemon:</p><p> </p><p>

Fearow: CP 621 (Evolved it after hatching a Spearow egg)</p><p>

Ponyta - CP 419 (hatched from a 5 km egg)</p><p>

Mankey - CP 287 (hatched from a 5 km egg)</p><p>

Oddish - CP 366</p><p> </p><p>

As for my top Pokemon, my top six are the follwing:</p><p> </p><p>

Vaporeon: CP 927</p><p>

Flareon: CP 903</p><p>

Jolteon: CP 736</p><p>

Pinsir: CP 639</p><p>

Fearow: CP 621</p><p>

Pidgeot: CP 543</p><p> </p><p>

Haven't caught any of the other starters, although I have seen Squirtle's image occasionally. I also got a couple of 10 km eggs that are close to hatching, so I'm curious to see what Pokemon hatch from them.</p>

Found a Vaporeon just chilling by a lure today near work at lunch... only 36CP but it's 500xp never-the-less <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

<p>Theres this huge spot in my city where almost thousands of Pokemon Go players show up to play, with five pokestops in short distance constantly updated with lures. There I caught so many new Pokemon: Wartortle(hadn't evolved Squirtle yet), Arcanine, two Scythers, Electabuzz, Tangela, Grimer, Voltorb, Dugtrio (Diglett a week later), Gloom, a 1165cp Clefable and Lapras.</p><p> </p><p>

But the best part of all was reaching level 20 and finally getting a hand on those ultra balls. After hearing about them in lvl 15-19 its about damned time.</p><p> </p><p>

Edit: Wondering, how is anybody finding the latest update with the revamped sightings feature? It seems like an improvement.</p>

I started with Geodude as I need a couple more to get Golem. Now I switched to dratini because my friend reported to me that I actually missed a Dragonite last sunday at the park where me and hundreds of players usually play. <img alt=":(" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/frown.png.e6b571745a30fe6a6f2e918994141a47.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />
