Legendaries coming this Summer
http://www.dualshockers.com/pokemon-go-legendary-event/
PVP, toohttp://www.dualshockers.com/pokemon-...ndary-pokemon/Because of the great success, we had to postpone some news that was planned. Now, we are working on some news for next summer (Northern Hemisphere), how to give more value to team choice, the release of Legendary Pokémon and battles between players. One thing we learned from “Ingress” is that the game holds if we are able to create social interactions between players, and we are working on it.

Fire and Ice event starts at 4pm ET.
1st ball & Great 150 xp
Nice & Curve 30 xp
Excellent 300 xp
630 EXP for a first throw Great curve. first throw Excellent curve with a Lucky Egg is nearly 2000 EXP lol.
Logged in for the first time in a while for this event. Immediately saw a 200CP Cyndaquil which is pretty rare where I live. Used a berry, Ultra Ball, and got Excellent throw. It escaped and ran away. Fuck this game, man.
Randomly got a porygon from a 5K egg and finally got enough Cyndaquil to get a Typhlosion. Only 25 more mon to go to finish my dex.
Saw a wild Flareon. Didn't know the eeveelutions could be found in the wild.
The base three can be, Umbreon and Espeon can't be. Flareons are pretty common right now because of the Solstice event.
So tickets for this Chicago event go on sale tomorrow but there has been no communication at all about what this thing is actually about.
I'm only a 40min drive, but unless tickets are free, I'm not going to drop money on something that could end up just be 'stand around the park with a bunch of Pokemon Go players.' My educated guess would be pokestops with infinite lures and maybe one of those inflatable pikachu suits walking around and they'll hand out some pokemon stuff like lanyards and stickers and cards and maybe even a special event with the gym co-op battle egg thing.
I'd be willing to part with 20$ for tickets if we got some free stuff. Can't imagine them closing down the park for something like this though, it will probably be free to the public. I'm guessing signing up and buying tickets will get you VIP badge with access to all the goodies.
Going to Grant park is an insane place to Pok as it is, stops and Poks everywhere! Team Yellow here if you wanna team up for the egg raids xD?
Wonder if it would be worth to bring a wireless hotspot and just have some free wifi's the entire time there? I have one for work that never gets used cause I'm always in the office :/
Gyms are now disabled.
Already sold out.
