Nice finds bro and it's always good to get multiple of the starters for the candy. Looks like it was a great success.

It really was. Might hit up the opera house soon as I hear it's just as good

slowly making my way towards another lucky egg thanks to piggy backing on other's gym victories hahaha.

MAGIC EGG. MAGIC EGG.

Can't believe I called it a lucky egg, what a idiot.

I'm confused. Is magic egg really a thing?

Not sure but I have 2 lucky egg waiting to be used.

It is called a lucky egg, there isn't a magic egg thing.

Lucky eggs are good but I feel as though they are power levelling me and I'm missing out on certain types of Pokemon inbetween

Pokemon appear at all levels, the only difference is the CP you can find them at potentially.

Have you guys spent any real world money on the game yet?

I haven't, and I hate micro transactions, but its quite tempting

Would ruin the game though for me.

Nah. Haven't really considered it.
I guess I'd only do it in a social situation where I could buy a lure for a few of us hanging out at the same place.
However I only know one friend who's playing pokemon at the moment.

Also thought about the 'drop a lure at your local hospital for the kids' thing but Royal Melbourne children's came out and said 'please don't, this is causing more harm than good' so if I find another charitable place then maybe I'd drop a lure there.

Someone should drop a lure at the Broncos Leagues Club. Ben Hunt might finally catch something.

My sister and I drove down the coast and ended up at the Marina, right as I was attempting to catch a LVL 800+ Dragonite the servers went down and I lost my chance. Was devo'd. They came back on and I went on the magikarp grind, my friend got to 350 candy so he'll get his tonight. There's a perfect spot with three lures always running and bulk awesome pokemon there.

I'm obsessed with this game haha

that's just blatantly stealing the joke that I posted earlier in the thread... of which I also stole from someone else. Fair play!

Wow really? How come? Is it because people are actually coming into the hospital rather than just doing it outside?

From the stories in America it's the complete opposite and the kids who can't get out and go hunting like the rest of us are loving the lures being put down for them.

I even read a story of a nurse/Doctor walking down + up tons of stairs to hatch an egg for one of the kids, top effort there.

The new Pokemon are few and far between currently. A beedrill spawned at my house, besides that, nothing new so far today.

Thank you for reminding me to text some form of this joke to my only pokemon playing friend, the Broncos fan.

Apparently some of the pokestops are just out of reach of some of the really sick kids and already being confined to bed and having that carrot dangled just out of their reach is really upsetting as you can imagine.

Great idea in theory but causing issues at least there, in practice.

Off to walk 4KM to hatch some eggs.
