    the only "hard" parts of the quest if you haven't done it yet are catching the fossil mons, the other stuff u can stack research quests for like aerodactyl or evolving scyther.

    problem is when you complete a bunch of those quests and dont know which ones which. worried i'll pop by accident prior.

    your stack is always at the top, if you have one (uncaught pokemon from research you claimed but ran from the encounter), if you have 4 things on your screen because you have 3 finished tasks and a stack, the stack is at the top of the list. your stack stacks in order of how you claim the research i.e. if you claim the 2 Hatched Eggs research then 1 Excellent Throw research, Aerodactyl stacks on top of Ditto and you can't catch the Ditto without first catching the Aerodactyl.

    the simplest way to do what you want is to clear all the research you have stacked, get the Hatch 2 Eggs task, claim it, run from the encounter, and until you are ready to catch Aero simply catch all research pokemon as you claim the task and never run from the encounter unless you're OK with waiting to catch them after catching Aero.

    It depends on what attackers you need more of who currently have weaker movesets. I use poke genie to determine whether i need fast or charged for specific pokemon, but I tend to focus on the more useful ones if I dont have them already.

    also, Sinnoh stones have stopped appearing in 7 day research breakthroughs. probably because it was scripted as part of the event and they forgot to actually branch that part of the code. don't claim yours for a day or two to be safe, I'm sure it'll get hotfixed quick.

    The Blackfish and StinkusP1nkus I believe we go Ultra/Best in another day (Blakefish and *******), that day will be CD this weekend. I know it's technically going all weekend but we'll use the normal 2-5 PM EST when the bonuses start. pop your eggs right at 2, I'll pop probably around 2:05 - 2:10 and open your gifts.

    Ah okay I was confused because I didn’t have anyone within a day of best, didn’t realize we were about to be Ultra.

    Works for me :respek:

    PvP (in some form) is coming soon. Might be trainer battles vs NPC instead of full-blown PvP

    Is there any point to evolving dragonites if Draco is worse than outrage?

    Any others that shouldn’t be evolved this weekend?

    Does the event today have a super high spawn rate or just what we’ve seen so far

    Draco is only marginally worse. My 'ite team will have 4 Outrage and 2 Draco plus who knows what the future holds.

    Only worry about 'ites, Metagross, and Ttar. Blast Burn Charizard is great if you don't have a Moltres or Entei but will be outclassed by BB Blaziken in a few months. Same goes for Frenzy Plant Venusaur and FP Sceptile.

    The rest, ignore. Oh, if you have a summer hat Pichu you can make a summer hat Pikachu with Surf (baby to Pikachu, not Pikachu to Raichu btw), people are doing that for the uniqueness. Nothing else is worth it.

    The rates are boosted across the event, I got a shiny Charmander and Larvitar yesterday, but apparently during the 3 hour window today they'll have true CD levels (1:25) so even higher.

    Shit, sorry to you and StinkusP1nkus we had rain here and I didn't head out until an hour or so later and it totally skipped my mind. Haven't opened the gifts but sorry for wasting your egg.

    If you guys have a time tomorrow that works for you I can do it then.

    Yes I was out until 12:30AM. I am so tired from this. Cleaning up my storage is painful. I got at least one shiny of everything I wanted so that was also successful. We didnt have many charmander or bulbasor spwans here, which kind of sucked. I wanted a better shiny charizard and I wanted a few Venusaur's but only cracked one.

    I went out on my normal drive this morning and it just sucked.

    Same. And all of my eggs are 5 km, which gives me little motivation to play other than get my 50 coins and have it open for my work commute

    Adventure sync doesnt work for me. I have google fit, have adventure sync turned on in settings, but never hatch eggs when I'm not in app and walk a lot. Common issue?

    Two common things that I can't entirely tell from how you worded your post:

    1) App must be completely closed to use Fit's tracking. If it's in the background it uses in-game tracking.

    2) Go into Fit and make sure you've allowed PoGo to interact with it.

    Sometimes the steps it adds can be nearly instant to the game, other times it can take an hour or so to update.

    Yes he is a coworker of mine.

    Last week I had an offsite all hands company meeting at a hotel in Tarrytown. I have a little over 50 employees. I had 10 people participating in a raid. Tons of Pokémon everywhere where we stayed. The rest of my employees were looking at us like we were were weirdos. I actually played while I was giving a two hour presentation.
