  7. I catch almost every Pidgey I come across. They're great for stacking up evolutions for Lucky Egg use.

    Most Common: Pidgey, Ratatta, Spearow, Weedle, Venonat, Caterpie, Paras, Eevee, Zubat
    Pretty Common: Staryu, Goldeen, Exeggcute, Oddish, Duodo, Nidorans, Ekans, Bellsprout
    Every-couple-of-days: Krabby, Poliwag, Horsea, Clefairy
    Once-a-week: Jigglypuff, Bulbasaur, Psyduck, Meowth, Sandshrew

    Then there's no in-between. All of the rest I'm basically lucky to ever see once. Some of them like Koffing and Cubones I only have like 7 candies for.
     
  9. I haven't seen many pidgeys since they updated the maps, which is kind of a bummer because I would catch 50 of them and use a lucky egg.

    What if you had someone in another part of the country sign into your account and vice versa to collect stuff that isnt local to you.

    Has anyone thought of that yet or am I ~a genius~

    That....would probably work? I think the only hang up is trusting someone with your password/info.

    My trash ones are the usual - Pidgey, Sparrow, Rattatta, Weedle, Zubat (the worst pokemon), Drowzee. I seem to see a fair few Jynx's too, which is another objectively awful/kinda racist pokemon...

    Cubone?! You are killing me :concerned: For some reason I really want both a Cubone & a Sandshrew atm, never seen either. I'm also one geode away from evolving but the only one i've ever seen in the wild disappeared before I could engage it!

    I mean, maybe? They've since fixed anything that made people think that to be true, but also this:

    In recent years, some fans of Pokémon have noted that Jynx may be inspired by ganguro, a Japanese fashion where women tan heavily, bleach their hair, and apply large amounts of makeup, instead of a black stereotype. This theory is mainly based on Jynx's long, straight, blonde hair, a common attribute of ganguro fashion. Another theory is that Jynx is based on a Nordic princess as per the legends saying things like due to the blistering cold, a princess's skin turned black. They argue that Jynx's hair looks more like royalty than an African stereotype. They also say that being based on a Viking could reason why they are Ice type. This is further expressed by Jynx sharing traits with the iconic opera singing "Fat Lady," who is pop-culturally portrayed dressed as the valkyrieBrünnhilde.

    Spent the weekend in Philly and saw a lot of pidgey's and rattata's like I normally do, but also a lot of Pinsir's, Bulbasaur's, and Magikarp which are generally not so popular around my area in NY. Also caught a CP700+ Growlithe and my first (weak) Lickitung in the wild.

    Just hatched a zubat *-_-

    I think worldwide trash is pidgey/ratatta/spearow/zubat

    My local trash is drowzee, see a lot of psyducks, poliwags, goldeens, and magikarps as well. Have not found many weedles, decent amount of caterpies, venonats and paras and nidos fairly uncommon, occasional squirtles, and everything else I have is super rare or hatched.

    All fair points, but before the change of it's (her?) skin to purple it def resembled blackface (and a racist doll that, at least in the UK was known as a "golliwog"). I can see it being unintentional perhaps, but the resemblance was there and that was what I was referring to in my previous post!
