^ Im really not sure what the best way levelling is, some people have said use the pidgey strategy (evolve your pidgeys to pidgeottos and transfer them, alongside weedles, rattatas etc) but others have said boost up your pokemon and go for gyms/ farm pokestops.

Also i've read that some believe its pointless to level up your pokemon because chances are, you'll find a stronger one in the wild when you level up. This is true to an extent, but at the end of the day there is a max CP (not sure what it is but there is one) so whichever route you do it doesn't matter that much as long as ur having fun doing it.

There's a new update on the App Store, it really improved the stability so make sure you update!

Yeah max CP depends on your level, my Squirtle is the max CP I can have right now so it is impossible for me to catch one with a higher CP, when I lvl up I definitely can but I will just power him up back to max CP

My strategy now is just catching and hatching eggs all day, I transfer over every pokemon I get and squirtle is the only one I keep, when I reach a relatively high trainer level I'll have tons of candy for each pokemon and a lot of stardust since I hatch 9 eggs at a time and get it in bulk, so I'll catch them at high CP and evolve them from there

I think with any of the starters your best bet is just to power it up to max CP, finding them in the wild is pretty uncommon I've heard and you often have to hatch them from eggs (2ks) so it's easier to manually get a high CP rather than just catch it like that

Height and weight also play a pretty important role it seems, my squirtle is XL for both so it makes sense to focus on it instead of one that has a smaller height/weight, should all take this into consideration when choosing which to pokemon to transfer or keep.

These things are based on my personal experiences and some others.

Tip 1:
Catch every pokemon you get.
Also save up the candy they give.
Once you get a lucky egg evolve all your "crappy" pokemons and you'll be getting 1000 exp per evolution. (Can let you skip a huge amount of effort and time in the long run).

Tip 2:
Never use stardust unless high level.
You only really need stardust at the point when your player level is capped.
Your player level will resemble what cp pokemons you find in the wild which basically means that low level stardust usage is a huge mistake since you encounter higher cp's along the way.

Tip 3:
Pokemon modules (pokelures) can actually stack up if the pokestops are close enough to eachother (aka being able to open them both without the other being unavailable).
Incenses and pokemon modules (pokelures) stack aswell.

Tip 4.
Pokemons have fixed spawn positions with a small radius around that position.
You'll notice this if you open pokemon go at your house and keepctrack of where the pokemons spawn.
Seeing a pokemon in one position pretty much means it can spawn there again.

Tip 5.
Try to get pokemon eggs(can get them at pokestops, have to be lucky though)
They can hatch pokemons that aren't available in your area plus 10km eggs can hatch the strongest pokemons.

Tip 6.
Don't get attached to pokemons since you're gonna have to transfer them eventually anyways if you're still leveling up your player(unless you prefer low cp pokemons that take up space ofcourse).

Oo never got a lucky egg?sounds awesome.

I run 9 incubators at once and just before my 2k's are about to hatch I use a lucky egg and then use that 30 minutes to finish the other eggs, which got me 9000XP in one egg run I do, I guess it's 200xp if you hatch one you already have, I hatched all new ones so it was 9k for me. Egg runs on a lucky egg will vary between 3600-9000 + xp from other activities.

Typically I'll also get 300-400xp per pokemon catch (or 1300-1400 if new) while doing the egg run as well, very fast levels.

I've yet to evolve many pokemon so I'm waiting to get a bunch and use a lucky egg to get 2k per evolve.

I have a ton of Pidgey candy as it is very common in my area and I have a few spawns near my house, so evolving them will be an easy XP grab for me.

for anyone looking for a strategy

Google invested into Niantic I believe.

made ME walk 5mi because my sister has to hatch a ****ing egg.

Borrowed my Grandmother's iPhone, and in exchange I offered to do her grocery shopping.

There was an Eevee in the backyard but I didn't get to catch it :(

I went to the park and placed two lured and people came rushing
