Set up a dummy account and share details via PM. Play that person's account when you come across whatever they're looking for.

They log back in after waiting a while and build dust to trade to themselves.

Do you also see corsola where you're at?

I think I'm down to needing Tropius, Corsola, and kanga (once my spare is freed up for Bowman to use that one will be done too). Local friends have a few torkoal from go Fest, and heracross from when they went far enough south, or GoFest last year I think.

I can do NA regular regionals too if anyone needs them. Illumise is very common, Tauros pops up occasionally to frequently depending on weather.

Yeah basically someone just needs to create a dummy account, then it gets passed around like a village bicycle. I log in, catch Tauroses and Illumises, then someone logs in from Europe, trades a Tauros / Illumises to their main account, then catches Volbeat / Mr. Mime, then goes to a NZ guy for Relicanth and so on.

Link it to a dummy account on facebook.

We get Corsola, but they're not nearly as common as Heracross, which seems like wherever you are there's more likely to be one nearby than not.

So long as people don't screw around and log in too fast, no. The game doesn't care if you log off for half a day, then log in elsewhere. I suppose it could look at phone IDs or something, but it sure hasn't yet ever.

I work with people that travel extensively between Indonesia, south America and the US. Sadly they don't play Pogo that I know of.

If you trade Pokemon with old movesets, do they keep them? What if they become lucky?

I've never traded before and was just wondering.

Traded Pokemon keep movesets. Their IVs reroll based on a lower limit defined by your friendship level. Best friend lower limit is 5/5/5. Level will drop if it's more than +2 compared to the person receiving it.

Lucky is random, probably, but influenced by trading older Pokemon...probably. If you have less than 10 Pokemon that are lucky, and trade a July or August 2016 Pokemon to someone, both traded are guaranteed lucky. Base IVs are 12/12/12 now for lucky.

Heracross is super common in South Florida, I could catch them.

How would that work, though? Get a second account up to level 10 and let other people log into it to trade to themselves locally?

If I gave you my second account info sometime next week would you mind catching me at least 2 Heracross? Maybe a Corsola or two if you run across them?

You're in luck! Here's a post from our local FB page:



and the map:



I won't personally be there but I know the "host" from raiding and he's a pretty cool guy. Counterbalance park is at 700 Queen Anne Ave N. Be on time, be prepared to walk and raid/catch at the same time, and be willing to run if it has bad IVs and they're already at the next raid. Bonus: it takes you through all of downtown. Have fun!

So the person you live with does something lovely to the neighbors, and in the process of smoothing it over, you find out one of said neighbors is a PoGo player. Is a gift of a Mr. Mime a proper, "I'm sorry, and it won't happen again," gesture?

Sure, just Pm me when you want to do it. I can do however many Heracross that you(or for that matter anyone else) wants if you have a mule account. Corsola might be harder but I can give it a shot.

Well it looks like we've started a nice chain of regional sharing, which is great. From looking at the list of friend codes, we have a grand total of one person in New Zealand on here though, and I didn't see anybody in the Tropius region, but I'm not really familiar with that boundary line though.

Wish I had more to contribute than common NA regionals, although I'm glad to do so.

I don’t want to promise anything, but I’m going on holiday to the south coast of Turkey in a week’s time, and the internet suggests there’s a chance of seeing Tropius there. Main priority is my own account and a couple for local trades, but if they do happen to pop up I’ll try to get some on my passaround account too.

Any DC area goons heard about a possible Unown event similar to what Nashville recently got? Someone in my raid group said she heard one was coming up but was lacking on the details.

But I would totally road trip it from Hampton Roads if it meant scoring a bunch of Unown.

Ended up with 7 Moltres's today, 2 of them shiny so good haul overall.

Also in terms of regionals, you'll all be pleased to hear that I'm in NZ and live near the sea so this guy...



Isn't really a problem for me to catch, the hard part is finding another device to use.

We have a couple of spare Galaxy S3's around the house but the game won't run on that model :negative:

Edit: I can also grab Volbeat, Zangoose and Solrock BUT Zangoose and Solrock are a little harder to come by
