Just got an eevee out of a 10km. fml. feels bad man.

[BerenTebogo]

My wife is 14 and has a 800+ Pinsir. I haven't caught anything that high, though. I'm 16, my highest is upper 600s, but I also haven;t evolved anything. I have a 444 Eevee and a few other upper 300 to 400s I can evolve.

Took me a sec to properly process this

You were right the first time.

That's fair. Didn't think about it.

Amazing pokeradar, best I've found by far. Runs off of your PC so you aren't dependent on a server being up like Pokevision, just on the PokemonGo servers themselves. This also scans the entire radius of the in game radar, not just a tiny circle around you. This also shows stops and gyms

How do I move the marker location? it starts me off at the wrong place.

I've seen people say stuff like "this Flareon is only 37.89% perfect", and whatever - and in my search to understand how they could know this, I've only come across really confusing spreadsheets and stuff. Is there a simpler way to understand this?

I'm guessing my 1283 CP Vaporeon that only needs 1900 Stardust to upgrade is better than my 1355 Tentacruel that's maxed out at 3000 CP to upgrade, for instance.

This game is super addicting, but I'm definitely trying to make an account strictly to sell unless things get better. Apparently if you don't choose a gym and just bank magicarp and other good candies you can sell a level 20 account for 500-1000$ At least that's what's been going on ebay for the past few days (actually selling, not just listed).

^ Wtf???

[Daydreamer]

^ Wtf???

For serious. One guy had 400 magikarp candies at level 20 with no gym selected and a medicore dragonite, went for 700. Here's a link to sold listings form the past day - http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...H_Sold=1&rt=nc it varies greatly depenidng on what you offer but some people pay crazy ammounts. Even if I can't (and I probably won't) sell it for a bunch should still easily make 100$ for something that gets me outside. Fine by me.

Note: it seems like ebay tries to take down a lot of these as the list of what's shown vary dramatically day to day.

We RMT now?

[Brill Weave]

Pokevision shows absolutely nothing near my house. At all. Yet according to the tracker there's 9 pokemon somewhere nearby.

[Myrrh_Quetz]

I think Pokevision is broke today. Haven't been able to get it working.

It's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. It also doesn't display Pokemon that are specific to you such as lures and incense. Leads me to believe there are other "hidden" ones that only populate for people RNG style.

Fuck outta here

I guess this bears reposting

The PokeVision map is definitely wrong at times. It can help, but don't take it as the end-all be-all. For instance, whatever map they're using has a complete blank for the entire downtown area of my town, a place that should be relatively active...it's just not ON the map at all, lol. Plus, comparing between what's actually popping in my area vs what the map shows, there are quite a lot of Pokemon missing on the PokeVision map.

And this as well

Now that Pokemon IVs can be calculated, collecting has become even more interesting. Instead of throwing them in the candy grinder for low CP now I suppose I'll be taking them all home and number crunching them, THEN throwing them in the candy grinder.

You can put your Pokemon's stats into the site I linked (Name, CP, HP, # of stardust it needs to be powered up, and whether it is already powered up or not) and it calculates the range of IVs based on that. It usually isn't exact the first time you calculate, sometimes you need to power up/evolve the pokemon, put the new stats in and hit the "refine" button to narrow it down, but if it's not in the 80-100% range the first time I wouldn't bother with it anyway - if you are indeed looking to get Pokemon with strong IVs and not just high CP.

There is a way to connect to the servers through a proxy and get the exact IVs from the game itself but I haven't done that and don't really know how. Some searching around you'll probably find it.

If you have not played previous Pokemon games breeding for IVs, it stands for Individual Values, meaning your Pokemon's individual stats that are unique to it. But instead of having 6 IVs for each stat like in the other games, PoGo pokemon's stats are boiled down to 3. They have combined some of the other stats they axed into the stats that are currently in use. You should be able to find a breakdown of that through a search too.
