    Halloween event confirmed, from 26th to 1st, 4x candy from buddy, double from capture and transfer.... I just did mass transfer like 10 minutes before reading about it.

    Also something about more spawns.

    Pretty nice event for first one.

    New Update just dropped changing egg colors. Pretty useless if you ask me. THe radar needs to be fixed. In San Diego, Pokemon Go has a more advanced radar built into the game, why not expand that instead of this stupid crap

    Why? Because that's the beta. It was stated to be the beta test of the tracker the moment they released it.

    So the update is live, 34 ghost Pokemon on my morning walk. I'd estimate over half of all Pokemon are Gastly or evolutions, Cubone, Meowth and Drowseys. Also the 4x buddy candies is great. Git my Charizard now working on Venasaure.

    Up to 138 Pokemon. Just have Muk, Dragonite, Jynx and Lapras to go. The Muk I'm working on walking now, and the others are probably just going to be some egg hatching luck.

    Just finished 142 pokemon in my dex. Also going to Hong Kong on business this month so might actually get another regional. Just about to tick over to lvl 30 and at 920km walked.

    The last 12 or so pokemon were all buddy evolutions or eggs.

    So the celebration event is active. Double XP and Stardust.

    Also, more interestingly, Ditto is out.

    He looks like a normal pidgey/rattata/whatever, and instead of the 'Gotcha - You caught X', you get 'Oh?' and an evolution screen.

    Then Ditto.

    In battles he apparently transforms into the first non-Ditto opponent he faces, he gains their stats/moves/type/etc., but apparently retains his own IV's and CP?

    They stealth nerfed my pokemon's CP left and right and I'm pissed. What the hell am I supposed to do with a Blazeitsaur that's 381 instead of 420 and an Eevee nicknamed 'Not Found' that's no longer 404?

    Game ruined. Literally unplayable.

    I love the buff to Rydon. It is a heavy hitter for me now.

    Got 2 dittos with in the same hour at the same location. Catching Pidgeys is not bad thing with the current bonus. Pop a luck egg and do a mass evolution; you can easily gain a level or 2. I am farming Pidgeys like crazy so I can hit lvl 28 or 29 before the event ends.

    Lvl 31 and 144 Pokemon. I've given up on gyms with the current system. So unbalanced.

    Think I'll just wait for Christmas event.

    A working radar is out of the NYC area. Finally, this was the biggest thing on my wish list

    So, advice?

    I've had decent luck with Dratini in the past, and ever since the Buddy system was introduced I've had one with me to get more candies. Not sure how the hell everyone else has gotten Dragonites without cheating.

    (Is cheating viable again? I missed out on most of the Bluestacks stuff, but damned if I'm not tempted to try it via computer - not phone - if only to catch up).

    ANYWAY...

    I have 180 dratini candies and the following:

    Dratini - CP 90 - PERFECT IVs (15/15/15)
    Dratini - CP 481 - 91% (15/14/12)
    Dratini - CP 559 - 75% (15/4/15)
    Dragonair - CP 935 - 80% (15/12/9 or 15/11/10)

    So I'm trying to decide what to do with my candies.

    My gut instinct says to use 125 on turning the best Dratini - the one with perfect IVs - into a Dragonite, then using the extra 55 to level him. But his starting CP is so low that even using all my current candies he might not match what one of the higher level ones could do if I just straight evolved them, not to mention all the stardust it would take.

    Plus, what if I did that, used all the candies, and then he is not only low level/CP but ends up with poor abilities? If I'm going to get poor abilities it might as well be on a higher level one that I can drop into gyms and whatnot.

    What would you all do? Getting Dratini candy is irritating enough that I might not save up enough to have a second go at this - but who knows.
