Hoe do I find a local discord group?

that one you have to luck out on and ask people at raids if there is a local one
They started to roll out a new update but it introduced significant lag in gym and raid battles. They pushed back the update roll out. It was probably the update to make exclusive raids happen.

My dex still sucks, but man if I didn't have a good Poke Go Walk tonight. Hatched like 5 eggs.
Also finally got a Sakura evolve!

Still nothing on mewtwo huh.

I'm not expecting to hear anything until Wednesday or Thursday, with Mewtwo dropping on Friday.
That said, I'm wondering if the fact that they had to pull the newest patch has led to a delay. I don't think the patch should be necessary for rolling out Mewtwo, since they've actually been testing exclusive raids since raids were introduced, but it's possible.
Was Dratini hunting this morning, and along my way biking to a Dratini down a trail, a Chansey popped up on my Nearby list. Luckily was literally at a office complex next to the trail (connected to it too). So got the Dratini, and went there. Always nice finding a random Chansey.
Also, got another 10k egg. So now upto 6! My goal is to get 9. After I get 9, I'll prob just hold onto them or something. Wait for the next event. Hopefully a Stardust event lol

My friend who has been walking her Dratini for some 200 kM hatched one from a 10K egg the other day.
Now has enough for a Dragonite!
Meanwhile we've got ANOTHER 100+ degree heatwave so we're all kind of on a break from PoGo.
Just dreading the Mewtwo raids and the madness they'll bring with them...

Solo'd my first raid today against a 5000cp Quilava. My 2300cp Omastar tore it limb from limb, I was shocked at the ease with which I completed the raid. Apparently it's a good counter to fire types? (I'm not well versed in the combat meta, I'll admit)
Later did another raid against a Magikarp.
Definitely a lot more fun than I was expecting. Now if I could just find a group to raid with.

Whoa, congrats
Yeah, after catching that one, I was so happy. Literally just smiling in the car for so long. This took me 335 Dratinis to accomplish. My goal finally complete. Dragonite now also above 3500!
Next immediate goal is just more 100% Pokemon (Larvitar) as well as catching the rest of the unowns (got 5 currently)

I haven't had a 10k egg in weeks, probably 5 or 6 weeks.
And I hatch at least one egg a day. What the fuck?
They're not even that special any more given that you can get high level monsters from raids, surely they should be a bit more generous with them?
I'm never going to get my god damn Blissey!

Just bad luck on your part. It's all RNG. I gained 3 10k eggs back to back yesterday as well as my fiancee who hasn't had a 10k in weeks now has 4 (2 from yesterday and 1 from this morning.) Sometimes luck is on your side
If you really want to get a better chance at getting a 10k egg, I would try to hatch more then 1 a day, placing a few in a incubator can greatly increase your odds. I currently do 2 a day (1 free & other I buy with Gym Coins every 3 days)

I used to incubate 5k eggs sometimes just to clear them out but now that their contents are absolutely worthless to me I refuse to waste my coins on them, I only incubate 10ks now.
I walk a ton every day so there's not much else I can do to speed hatching.
My luck must be really bad as I've only had a couple of 10k eggs in the last few months.

Solo raiding for like 10k CP is legit for me.
I know during the week I'm not gonna really raid, and even on the weekend it's hard to find a group sometimes. Considering they give you a free pass each day I just use my pass on low CP stuff.
Might not be great for most of you, but with a small dex and lowerish lvl I'll take the Poke, Candy, EXP, and chance at Rare Candy.
Maybe once I've actually evolved a Crowmaw or Bayleaf it won't be as enticing, but for now I'm good. Worth more to me to see something like that than a legendary when I'm not gonna be able to get a group.

Man, there are NO Legendary or Tyranitar raids anywhere near me today. :\
Well, I take that back. There's ONE Lugia 10 minutes away, but in a spot I can literally guarantee a team will not show up for.
Ugh... This was my last full day for legendaries, since I'm busy most of tomorrow...

New update!

Go + spins gyms now, can already verify.

they are getting closer with the being able to see how many people are in a raid.
but really needs a ping system where you can set a time you are willing to wait and people can ping that they are on their way or something.

Last ball glitch was fixed too.
Edit: Oh, they put that in the patch notes, haha. It actually isn't part of the patch though, that fix was a server-side change, so you don't need the patch to benefit from it.

Ok guys...something has been bothering me for a while now 
In my Pokedex when I tap on a Pokemon, it shows a Mars sign and a Venus sign, for male and female. But with (for instance) Venusaur, the signs are colorless, while Gyarados has a red and a blue dot in the signs.
Why is that?

Colored in = obtained. Colorless = not obtained.Ok guys...something has been bothering me for a while now

The thing is, the marking is not retroactive to Pokémon obtained before that little feature was added. So if you haven't caught/hatched/evolved the Pokémon since that update, it will erroneously show that you haven't at all. Even if you still have pre-update Pokémon in your box.

They probably won't ever fix it, to be honest. It would be extremely simple to do, at least for Pokémon you still have on hand (just run a quick script that checks your box on start-up), and the feature (and thus issue) was introduced back in January, so the fact that it hasn't been addressed means it's not something Niantic is concerned about. You'll just have to re-obtain any Pokémon that are listed incorrectly, annoyingly enough.
Chuckie
Member
I think chances of me catching all that shit again are about as big as Niantic fixing it.
But at least I know why it is now.
Which reminds me.... I only found out a week ago that a female Pikachu has a different tail. I thought the heart shaped thingy was a new design because I saw it first on the Pika with the Ash hat. Lol.

Legendary dogs coming over the next 3 months. 1 a month, swapping regions.
Exclusive Raids are going to be in testing from 6th Sept before full rollout.

That's awesome, congratulations. The rotating dogs is a good idea. A month at a time is a bit long I think but it doesn't really matter

There were people I played with who couldn't get the birds because of the week thing.
A month means we can at least plan a weekend to do it.
