The Catholic cathedral here is a gym... with a Drowzee. That's really funny.

Had a pretty good haul last night, also became a Gym leader:
Of course, my position had been usurped by the time I woke up, because people without jobs will absolutely rule this game.

I think my phone or 4g connection just isn't strong enough for this game. My character jumps around the map like a madman and it's never accurate to my location.
I think that this would be a problem with the GPS more than a connection problem.

I...seriously doubt it, I have a moto g 3rd generation with 3g connection and works fine...
oh,a nd no plan, like, using internet from my phone balance... like, prepaid.. so..yeah

Boy is that a lesson I had to learn early in my life any time I got way too into a game. I'd never be able to keep up, but gotta not let that kill my enjoyment!

I think I screwed up the access to camera... not sure how you're taking pics or looking around and finding Pokemon
I'm not sure but since Jigglypuff is I would assume the answer is yes.

This will actually be pretty great to use while I go outside for a walk during lunch. Spice up the walk a bit.

I can confirm, my Clefairy is Fairy type.
I barely saw anything in or around my house last night, probably because there isn't even a single Pokestop within several miles.
Fortunately, my office building not only has a Pokestop, but a gym, and I can activate the stop from my desk... so Pokemon are popping up constantly as I'm at the computer.
The person who had already claimed my office's gym was already level 9, but their lowly Nidoran was taken down by the Golbat I caught earlier today.

Just turn AR off when lots of people are around so you don't look too crazy.

Turns out my GPS is borked. In the settings I set it so it was only using the GPS for location an it couldn't find me at all.
I thought so too but I have two major complaints:
1. Listening to music or podcasts while playing this is not a great experience. The game music will stop and all you get is the phone vibrating.
2. That would be OK if the game supported notifications. Instead you have to have it running all the time.

I was late today because a Paras crossed my path...
this might be the start of something...

theres a nearby nature walk and lake that walked around for 10 min this morning - SO many water pkmn and pokestops. its amazing. i can just keep looping around as it takes 5 minutes to refresh a pokestop to fill up on balls and candies.
have a real nice Staryu, Dratini, Venonat, Psyduck, tentacool, and bellsprout ( dont like his attacks though)

Two things:
1- How I log into my Trainer Club Account? When I open the app, it only gives me the option to log in with google. Android app.
(asked this a bunch of times yesterday, no replies :/)
2- I cant see any pokemons or gyms anymore. It goes past the loading screen, but then it shows nothing in the area. Is it a normal issue? (Brasil)

It's excellent for, much along the lines of Ingress, taking you just slightly out of your way in an interesting direction. I have this park I'm going to check out at lunch that I've never been to even though it's like .5 miles away.
look at all them stops! And maybe that gym is vulnerable...

Really? That's a major bummer. So I would need to walk around with the app open, and I'd be unable to listen to podcasts at the same time. That sucks.

lmao that title

Metropark near me has lots of Pokemon, no pokestops. There really are no easy pokestops to get to if I walk from home. Closest is over 2 miles away, would take me about an hour and a half for the full trip to refill some pokeballs. Feels like I'm at a disadvantage.
I work at a large hospital but somehow it is neither a gym nor a stop... The nearest stop is a dinky little mechanic's place a block and a half away. Then nothing for a mile all around.

I never got an answer on the other thread so: Can you get live notifications on an Android Wear smartwatch?

I get into work today and all my Co workers are talking about Pokemon go. Most of them are non gamers.
No, there are no notifications. And I'm afraid that won't change since they're selling their $35 wearable that is basically a notification receiver.

Sounds interesting, but it must be deadly on data.
15mb after walking over 5km. It's not bad at all.

So I just beat all the trainers at the gym by my work but didn't get to claim the gym? I challenged again and all of the Pokémon in the gym were magically healed and the Leader's Eevee wouldn't take any damage no matter what
This is glitched the fuck out.

Well that sucks, I have a Poketch skin on it and everything just for the launch... Hopefully some finds out how the Plus works so it can be emulated without paying 40 euros
Well, you do have to have the app open, but you can listen to stuff at the same time, I was listening to music while out last night. You just have to be able to feel the vibration (or check it every so often). Of course your battery won't be thrilled with you for this.
There are no notifications of any kind.
This seems to be an intentional design decision to make the Go Plus device more compelling, and it's not clear to me how that thing will work yet either.
yeah it's pretty wild stuff

That's not bad then. I only have 500mb, though, so I'd have to be careful.
Is it even out in Canada?
