    They dont' really spawn here, and the perfect one I caught is CP 102. Lots of walking ahead of me for those candies.

    On another note, cheating is harder now right?

    I'm really lucky in the sense that my house is a rare pokemon spawn, having Venusaur/Blastoise/Dragonite and much more nearly weekly.
    Unlucky, though, that they have spectactularly low CP.
    The Venusaur last week had 257CP and still ran away.

    How is cheating harder? Lower spawnrate? Or is it by area.

    I have yet to see a Dratini in my game at all, and Dragonite is my favorite Pokemon. Ultimate sadness. :C

    Rumored to be a nest reset tomorrow.

    Grabbed the Plus. Works pretty well, but I'm not sure if the bad things about it are worth it, at the same time. No stardust from catches? D:

    Supposedly Niantic fixed it so that anyone with a rooted/jailbroken phone can't play at all, and supposedly they started perma-bans as well. Not sure how accurate that is.

    Huh, didn't know that. There's this one guy in my city that needs to get banned, hopefully they'll take care of him.

    Yeah, there's a gang of folks that play around my area named TVA that spoof and take gyms and such. Can't wait until they get taken down, somehow. All the popular gyms being overrun with 10 spoofed Dragonites is kinda obnoxious.

    I found a decent Gyrados or Lapras can take down a dragonite easily. my 1900 cp gyrados took down a 1800 and 2100 cp dragonite before getting taken out. Its all about move set any typing. A dragonite with a bad move set is not worth much.

    Okay, so I was exaggerating for simplicity. They're full of Dragonite, Snorlax, Vaporeon, and others. They're just all hyper-leveled. It'd be lovely if someone was silly enough to line up a gym with all of the same type, but no.

    I saw a gym once with I think 5 Dragonite and 3 Vaporeans.

    My bad luck having 7 Jolteon became very good luck.

    3/10 done, I'm not sure if I'll reach 1000 this year but I hope I do.

    Looks like the "No stardust" thing was just an error of it not showing up?

    Holy shit, the Go Plus has increased the accuracy of the location finding for me so much. My early morning runs have apparently turned from 1-2 km to 8+, as it should be.

    I have no eggs. I need more eggs to hatch!

    At 130, its a slow slog walking these last few.

    150 pokemon, 4 legendary, 3 regionals i cant yet get unless i get lucky with eggs.

    Need 13 more, oddly i have never seen nor has anyone i knoe seen a DoDuo or Tri, despite not being at all rare apparently.

    Wonder if its a glitch, since out of like 30 people no one in this area has ever seen one.

    You cannot get regionals from other regions from eggs.

    Had didnt know, that also means a bunch of people who got 146 and claimed they got lucky hatches were just cheating. Perfect.

    Doduo spawn here pretty frequently. Hell, Dodrio spawn around here. Useless little birds.

    I know it sucks that you can miss stuff based on region, but I really find it nice that there's limits like that. It would almost feel silly to have everything available absolutely everywhere (at the same rates, at least).

    I agree, you're supposed to travel the world to catch 'em all after all.

    Oh i agree, im annoyed people loving in huge cities could get to 130 in like 2 weeks by walking 50km.

    Its taken me 8 weeks and 650km and the last few are gonna trickle in.

    Although i would love yo finish the pokedex, and world wide travel is bryond a lot of people.

    I saw something on the BBC about a guy hatching a tauros in Southampton. But I've seen loads of stuff about the eggs being region locked too, so I'm not certain.

    Also, anyone have the go+ yet?

    The eggs are definitely region locked. He must have spoofed his character to another region.

    The Go+ is fantastic as a supplement. It's not meant to replace the main game of opening it up and playing, but it works great if your expectations are tempered.

    I don't know if the update improved the accuracy or the Go+ did, but the location tracking has been vastly, vastly improved since I started using it.
