Mon=Poke"mon"
Hard to explain
Level 30: Yes it is true level 30 can get level 40 pokemon, but when you level pass 30 you have to level up your own pokemon to the max at that level.

Level 30 is the deadline of find high Cp pokemon as in you cant find a max level higher that that pokemon at 30 you can still power up your pokemon but you can find a pokemon with that high cp out in the wild.

I dont know how to explain it really well.

u explained it well.

what do u mean by "but when you level pass 30 you have to level up your own pokemon to the max at that level"???  

anyone here level 30 or higher?

Is it even possible legit yet? I sort of came off the game at level 20 and it felt like it would take me weeks to level then

As in you wont find any pokemon with stronger Cp in the wild they are locked at the highest cp pokemon you can get at 30. So if you have the Best 100% IV dragonite at level 30 and its max cp is lets say 5000. you will never find anything 5000+ in the wild when you are level 31+. You will have to use your star dust to pass the level 30 mark.  

every day at college there has been one single shellder that I would see but couldn't encounter, but today it popped up and i caught it : )

Last time I played the max level was like 40 or something  

Well today I caught a IV 100% Tauros sadly not great move set... caught a really good Flareon and hatched a lot of good ones.


There is a lot of legit 30+ players. They just live in really popular cities

Yeah Phugee and SpreadMyCheeks are players in my area who were higher than level 30 and there's a few others I think

Noting that all of us got together and grinded out that EXP (Phugee even used two phones to help his GF out) we had thousands of pokestops visited all from the same town and about the same 8-15 pokestops (unless going to other towns), we also used raspberry's for almost every catch and often got good throws so we would basically catch every Pokemon as well.

The travel route we did for hitting pokestops we had constant lures on all the stops to make it faster, we also all have a lot of gym battle wins because we got a fair bit of EXP that way (and we are all a different team, so while we never spent hours boosting wins for EXP we did exchange the gyms we took between the 3 of us at least once before moving on), and also from using a bunch of lucky eggs and basically running all the incubators at once.

I haven't really cared to fix my phone yet but doing it this week, I'll be surprised to see what level they are now. 39 to 40 is 5,000,000 EXP.  

Evolved all my Pokémon at once. Took longer than 30mins. Still have to get more candy for about 5 other Pokémon. Going to need to save up on stardust.
Happy with the outcome.

We split costs with lures and often some stops already have them placed, but on incubators and eggs easily in the three-digits

Also better data plan just for Pokemon Go so whatever I pay for that too

I made my raticade #1 my buddy. My main goal in this game as of right now is go get as many Raticades as I can and rename them all to RaticAIDS #1,#2, #3..etc.
I have five so far <:
Idek tbh

clefairy :-)  

Reading up on it, buddy system sounds pretty useless:

The buddy system uses the same distance system as egg hatching in order for you to walk to acquire candy for one specific Pokémon that you assign as your “buddy.” You take them on a “walk” of a designated distance, and more powerful Pokémon require longer walks in order to produce candy rewards. A Pidgey, for example, is 1 km, while a Ponyta is 3 km and a Snorlax is 5 km. Completing any of the three distances will get you 1 candy. Reports are still coming in, but it seems as if the 2/5/10 km tier of egg hatching corresponds to the amount of distance required to get candy, outside of the three starters, Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle, which all require 3 km walks.

To evolve a Charmander into a Charizard, assuming you have no candy, it would require 125 candies, meaning 375 km (233 miles) walked with just that one Pokémon. To evolve a Dratini into a Dragonite, that’s another 125 candies, but at the 5 km rate, that’s 625 km (388 miles)
