Is there anywhere within the game that signifies the rarity of a Pokemon?
Rattata, Pidgey, Drowzee, Zubat, Caterpie, Weedle, or any of their respective evolutions... Then it's rare

Haha yeah I'm still getting Zubat, Pidgey, Rattata and Drowzee, I was just saying that *if* any rarer Pokémon do happen to show up then it's extremely good luck if you happen to encounter them, because at the moment it's impossible to deliberately encounter anything.
Lets hope they fix their shit sooner rather than later. Quote:

Cool. I just got one with magnets for hands in my living room. That has to be rare.

Went to a lure today, got many rattatas! Not great
Almost got 3 gyms for my collect today! Got booted out of the 1st as I was beating the 3rd! would have gone back if they 1st wasn't 14 miles away! I'm sure its not logging my distance properly either. Do a 1.9 km journey twice a day when i'm in work, and the egg thingy logs it as 0.8km |

It's 3:30 pm in New York so I don't think that's the problem.

If you fight in an allied gym, you get a bit of XP and it gains some reputation. If the reputation gets high enough, more pokemon can be added. You get 10 coins (premium currency) and 500 starstuff each day for each pokemon you have in an allied gym!
Fighting a non allied gym, you get 6 pokemon to face the roster, each win reduces reputation, meaning if you do it enough, pokemon slots will be removed (and the pokemon in them returned to their owners) Meaning with patience you can take down a gym if you have a half decent team! You get more XP for attacking non allied gyms too. When you clear one out, it turns grey, you can then add one of your pokemon to claim it for your team! I tend to put lowly ones in there, makes it easier for another team player to get some XP. |

I wish you lived around my way. The red gym I was considering attacking earlier had a Jolteon with a CP of 340 something. My highest is a 115 Pidgeot.
Electric>Flying ![]() Thanks for info also. Itll be not very effective against grass types, and their attack will be normal! Equally, i'd love a gym with a pokemon of CP340, they are all at least twice that round here!! I am team red though

Remember, you get 6 to do that, so try 6 weaker ones (non flying clearly!)

With regards to gyms, if you can time dodges correctly you can take out Pokémon 500 CP higher than yourself without *too* much of an issue, anything lower than 400 CP should go down with no issue at all, take a chance at it, even if it is higher than your own Pokémon, you'll probably win

I got Squirtle in the middle of the night so that was nice. My housemate gets the Pidgeys etc. but seems to get loads of rare ones compared to me. |

Ok I've been playing for a few days and one thing I'm not sure about is can other people see the same pokemon as me or do we all get unique spawns?

My friend and I went to the local swimming pool today and both of us got the exact same Pokémon: 2 Pikachus, 4 Rattatas, a Pidgeot, a Pidgeotto, 3 Zubats and a Goldeen. The only differences will be the catch rate, the CP and the HP levels. |

Is there anywhere I could see a guide to what is weak/strong against what ? Quote:

Yeah the dodging is key to beating the higher CP Pokemon. Don't get put off by a high number.
Is there anywhere I could see a guide to what is weak/strong against what ? Electricity beats Flying and Water. Fire beats Grass, Bug and Ice. Grass beats Water, Ground and Rock. Psychic beats Fighting and Poison. Poison beats Grass. Ice beats Grass, Ground, Flying and Dragon. Flying beats Grass, Bug and Fighting. Rock beats Fire, Ice, Flying and Bug. Ground beats Fire, Electricity, Poison and Rock. Normal beats nothing. Fighting beats Normal, Ice and Rock. Bug beats Grass and Psychic. Dragon beats Dragon. I think that's all the types from Gen 1, pretty hard to keep track. |
