How does anyone get a single ex raid pass, let alone three.

I got one way back in September when they first released them for doing a Moltres raid at a sponsored stop. Got one for the same stop a week later, so no rhyme or reason why I got a third for today when I did one raid at a park near where I live last week.

Managed to catch a Claydol before a Baltoy. Weird.

This happened to me this morning. Then later I hatched my first Baltoy :v:

Haven't gotten a single 10k egg in 3 weeks, though...

E: VVV

Speaking of which, I randomly came upon a Solrock while picking up some Greek food last night. Feeling pretty good about that!

Had a Glalie spawn when I was walking home, but it didn't beat out the Lunatone that spawned later. Same place a Hitmontop spawned last week, I swear that area keeps giving rare stuff, it's where I got my first Pineco too.

Though of course it doesn't beat out a fuckin Dragonite just popping up. One time I found a wild Dragonair, but for the people that get all the rare fully evolved Pokemon that are ready to fight immediately: gently caress you and gently caress this game.

Where are you in the world that you found a Lunatone? I have heard they spawn at night but have yet to see one even on a tracker.

Your questions remind me that it's weird that there has been so little confirmed about Solrock and Lunatone. They're apparently regionals, but somehow special. I have a Lunatone from Europe.

I’m ok with regionals, but I think the idea of migrating, even if it’s only like, 1-2 times a year, is pretty good. Take the Farfetch’d event and just make it a yearly thing. That gives Niantic like, 4-5 more small events a year anyway.

I got a Plussle, and was wondering why I haven’t seen any Minun.

UK, while it was partly cloudy. Sure I get 75 million normal spawns, but occasionally a Rock type pops up. I do feel I get way too lucky with spawns considering my poo poo rural location, but I did have to walk 60 candy for both Dragonite and Tyranitar, so gently caress this game, basically.

Does anyone know how long it takes to login from two different parts of the world before you are soft banned? My girlfriend is on the other side of the country, and while she caught a Pokemon earlier, she couldn't find a stop nearby, and wanted me to login for her to keep her streak going.

Depends on the distance, I think 2 hours is safe for global? My friend had his boyfriend travel for work and they made it work with that.

Not sure, personally only played my gfs account 15mins away with no problems.

Corsola’s area is defined by longitude, isn’t it? It’s only available in the tropics or something.

Ya, as said you can catch Corsola in some very southern parts of the continental US and Hawaii too. Heracross, a South American regional, can be found in the southern portions of Texas and Florida as well.

1/5.

On the same day, I got a 2270 and missed a 2328.

I hate everything about Kyogre. The ridiculous difficulty of capturing, the fact that it's on during the most frozen time of the year, the fact that it just won't stop loving dodging...
