    Oh fúck, I'm working tomorrow AND I put a 10 KM egg into an incubator just yesterday. ffs. Living in Dubai and not having much of a walkable area to play has really distanced me from the game :( Hoping I get to hunt for shiny Latias soon at least.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,129 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Next weekend for Latias

    I've a few eggs on about 1k to hatch right now so I'm out for a walk to do them then the community day kicks in at 11 until 2 so kept all my 10k until then as with the 1/4 plus 1/3 it brings a 10k to 1.7k double bonus which is easily managed doing a loop of glasnevin cemetery or Stephens Green pale blue piplup looks nice hope I've better luck than chimchar day.

    Managed to get 6 shinies from the limited amount I could play, so not too shabby.

    Lunar New Year's event looks decent. Darumaka being added, shiny Minccino, and wild shiny Gyarados.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,129 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Still yet to catch a shiny Karp botanic gardens is a nest at the moment so I'm hitting up there after 3 today


  • Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 9,858 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tenger

    Guy on Dublin Pokemon Go Facebook page is looking to Co ordinate gifts with Rebslinky.
    I think they are on here

    Got my first invite to an ex raid!!
    Late to the party, I know.

    I’ve only completed one 5* raid - last weekend and I didn’t manage to catch heatran, despite having 13 balls!!
    Any tips?
    Raid is on Saturday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,934 ✭✭✭✭josip


    Can't give any tips for Regi.
    For Heatran, the best time to throw a ball is halfway through his attack.(I throw curves but never learned the lock throw.)

    By the time it lands he should be still and rarely goes straight into a jump/2nd attack.
    He attacks a lot so there are plenty of opportunities, take your time and don't panic.
    I've caught 5 or 6 of the Heatrans on the last ball.


  • Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 9,858 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tenger


    Be there at least 5 mins before, unless you gave co-ordinate a raid time with the rest of the invitees.
    Gives you time to become friends, chat about lineup or even arrange a nice trade.

    What's the craic with Safari Zone events? Any use?

    Thanks for the tips, fingers crossed!

    Do you know if you can reach the magikarp nest from outside the botanic gardens? Closing time is 5pm online.

    I evolved a magikarp then the next day I reached 6/8 of a mythical discovery and had to start from scratch with only 11 magikarp candies ����
    Hoping to come across a shiny Karp to make up for it

    They can certainly be good. There is one in Liverpool. I'm sure some Irish players will head over for the weekend. I know there was a decent bunch travelled to Dortmund last year.

    It's like Community Day on steroids. Special event tasks, very rare spawns, special event spawns. Liverpool will have Unown and Relicanth spawning. Shiny rate is increased too.

    I was at Chicago GoFest last year. Which is a higher level again.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,125 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Yeah, I was at Go Fest Dortmund, and will probably try and head to this Safari Zone tbh.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,934 ✭✭✭✭josip


    If you do go, buy a local prepaid SIM for connectivity.
    In Dortmund the wifi was non-existent/poor and if you're roaming from another country you're deprioritised on the network.

    Nest migration happened yesterday so not sure what's there now will be over there at 12 today so can update then.

    The lunar event starts tonight seems to be focused on red Pokemon so hopefully Karp's included in that.

    Lucky you said that, I’d be driving from Louth!

    Oh I never though that’s karp would be in the event fingers crossed.

    Wild Gyrados shiny is in the event in the wild so I'd be very surprised if shiny karps were not increased in spawn rate as well.


  • Moderators Posts: 3,554 ✭✭✭Wise Old Elf


    I'm really tempted to try to get tickets to Liverpool, I have homework to do though...
    My two kids are Niantic kids account, but my own account is linked to my google account, not my Pokemon trainer account.
    I'm pretty sure I've tried to change my account to the trainer account rather than google but I don't think it worked, and I think I might have to buy the kids' passes from my trainer account. Anyone been in a situation like this?
