Is this... an actual thing?
They definitely do not have any data on actual buildings or businesses. I'm going to guess the only data the game goes by is: Time of day, by water, by road, by pokestop. I doubt it's really any more complex than that, and for the most part, just completely random on where the global spawn generator algorithm decided to put spawn points for specific pokemon.

Not sure how I'd judge worth. I mean I know I can get more Dratini candy but don't know how good the moves I have are. Just knew I wanted to get one once I found a good farm spot.
Caught a Ninetales today too. Low CP(224) but since I haven't found any place with a high amount of Vulpix I was pretty happy.
Lol like I said the spawn locations weren't too random so after day one I knew where to walk - sorta at least. 3 steps bug made for some frustration though sure.
Given that the brush at this park is too thick to walk through, I had no choice but to stick to trails anyway.
He's team valor probably... lol

I'll send him a pic of the shirt and this gif.he can deal with it!
More about the concept of wearing a dorky Pokemon related thing that advertises that I play the game.
He's Team Mystic actually. Although he wanted to be Team Instinct but I told him we couldn't do co-op if he chose 'em.
How to get the Eevee evolution that you want.

I'd hunt down an Onix. Haven't seen one yet.

Played for 10 days, haven't seen a single 1
I guess I should check what moves the dragonite has
It probably uses google maps data, you can open up your google maps and see all the buildings marked. Golf courses seem rather prominent for rare spawns. Hotels, resorts and stadiums too.
Collected 100 gold, bought an egg, evolved all my pidgeys and weedles and hit lvl 20. Might be time to pump the breaks and slow down with the game a little. Good thing Niantic hasn't quite mastered the mobage stuff like the japanese developers have and it'll probably be easier to quit it with no login bonuses or a steady stream of updates/events.
Do they not have biomes?

Thanks! Set blastoise one as my lock screen. He's my bae pokemon.
What makes him a noob?
Nothing, I'm just playing off his insecurities about being a lower level for my own amusement
He's catching up pretty quick though, especially given how goddamn long it takes to hit level after hitting 20

Went out to a local park today with my wife and saw over a hundred people playing. Families, couples, kids, teens, punks, bros, goths, moms, dads.
Dropped some lures and took a bunch of silly Pokepics, tried to hunt down a Slowbro but didn't have any luck.
It was seriously one of the coolest gaming moments I've had in my 25+ years of gaming. Just so neat to see so many people all into it out in the world.

Just not in Southern Cali please.
Do we think Niantic will ever expand the number of Pokestops and Gyms, especially in rural areas? Did Ingress ever expand its points of interest (I didn't play it so I don't know what its equivalent would be)?
It seems so simple. They have Google Maps data, even just making everything containting the words "pub", "church", "park", "restaurant" etc into a Pokestop or gym should result in many more appearing in rural areas.

I'd be more inclined to buy incubators if they were infinite use. I can see why they aren't (they want people to buy more), but 3 uses is a bit shit for the cost.
Lol. I was just curious what would compel someone to spend $100 to catch up.
Glad it's not just me.

got any pics?
Yeah I was hoping for something like that, but it was too good to be true. Would be nice if they factored in weather though.

Apparently they use local climate type, amount of vegetation cover, and soil type as well, according to an interview with the Niantic devs.
Can anyone confirm that it doesn't work anymore? The whole naming your Eevee for specific evolution.
How do those equate to Zubats in virtually every part of San Francisco?
