Apparently it's not bad. I've seen some saying about 20mb a day for a heavy enough user.

It's an absolute kunt on the battery tho.
This is the problem. Turn everything off ya don't need when playing it. For me turning off Bluetooth and Facebook helped a bit.

Went walking again yesterday and today, caught nothing. Used incense once home and just kept getting pidgey, weedle and rattata, so I was able to evolve a weedle and pidgey, got 1k cp for each.

How do you get the coins to buy stuff in the shop like incense? Also, how do you see who owns the gym? I'm only at Level 3 so all I see is the Professor telling me to come back at Level 5.

Got loads of pokestops in my area I just found 3 pokemon in my living room and a few outside.

You have to pay real money. To see the person without being level 5 you can just click the gym and try and see he name quickly before Willow comes up, best bet is to be level 5 though.

The two gyms by me got taken over by someone else today, on the same team I will join too.

Went up my local Tesco earlier to try it, couldn't get the hang of the Pokestops at first, but went into town later, and figured it out. It was quite funny (and easy to recognize) the people playing pokemon go by them spinning in circles.
Caught a few Pokemon.

Not officially but it's easier on Android to find and download apps that aren't normally available.

Spinning? you just spin the token on the screen with your finger....

Or at least, thats what I do!

Catch them all, sell the crap ones, power up the good ones and then evolve them.

Took my son to the park earlier because that's where the gym is, he payed whilst I battled. My gym needed 1000 xp to level up but I could only win one battle a time giving it 100 each time and my son got impatient. Then when he let me play again for some reason every time it went to the battle, it said Go, and then it backed out for some strange reason.

I did end up getting two more eggs though, one 10k and one 5km.

I also saw some people playing because they stopped by the pokestop as I got there.

Kinda looking into getting an unlimited internet sim for my phone. Anyone have a monthly sim they pay for to get unlimited data? Never really needed mobile internet outside of my house before, lol.

Servers seem to be crashing more often as more people start playing. Nintendo must be happy though.

I can't be fussed with the fuss of downloading the US/AUS version on my iPhone, so I'll just wait for the UK release, but what are the starters, and how does this game actually work? Is it like the handheld games in the sense that you level up your Pokémon, they learn new moves and then evolve at a certain level?

* Can you stop Pokémon from evolving (and in turn, learn other moves quicker - like the handheld games)?

* How do we choose the evolution of Eevee?

* What are the starter Pokémon? I'm going to need an Infernape.

* As per the handheld games, are you limited to six per your team? Where are others 'stored'?

Edit: How are Pokémon healed? There's no Poke centres?
