Pokemon Go New Events

Image
Hello Trainers, I like most other people love raiding in Pokémon Go especially the legendary raids but that seems to be all there is to do lately. With the legendary birds it was exciting as they were only around for a week each and then for a few more weeks they were all out so you had a choice of what legendary to go for. With the legendary beasts its just doing the same raid over and over again and I feel like they need to have an extra event going on as well as the Legendary beast raids otherwise it will be 3 months of just raiding. Don't get me wrong I love Entei and he is personally my favourite legendary but the game needs a little something extra to keep the game new and exciting. Now they have brought the eggs back I think they could do something with the Legendary eggs so that they throw in another Pokemon such as Ho-Oh so you have a chance to battle and catch something new and also you wont know what is in the legendary eggs every time. Let me know what you think ab

Pokemon Go Rare Finds

Image
Hello Trainers, I have had quite a few rare finds the last couple of weeks including Gyarados, Lapras, Golem, Snorlax, Blastoise, Alakazam, Tyranitar and a shiny Magikarp. Unfortunately the CP of these Pokemon has never been very good, excluding the Tyranitar which was over 2000 CP. I seem to be finding a lot more rare Pokemon recently and thats probably just a coincidence but let me know if the same has been happening for you! Now I know some people don't have any shiny Pokemon yet so I guess I'm lucky to have one but I can't bring myself to evolve my Magikarp with such bad IVs (25%) and a low CP. My Lapras and Snorlax are also both terrible but I like to leave these in gyms as a bit of a joke. Overall this week has been quite successful with some good finds and several Entei caught. I havent managed to do any raids today yet but will definitely be out this evening trying to get myself a 100% IV Entei. For me the most rare spawn has to be Aerodactyl as it is t

Pokemon Go Entei Raids

Image
Hello Trainers, I have had quite a productive morning completing 4 raids. 3 Entei and 1 Tyranitar managint to catch one Entei and the Tyranitar. My luck with catching Entei seems to be improving after catching 0 for 10. I haven't changed my technique, I use a golden razz and a curve ball aiming for great/excellent throws. I hit almost every ball every raid by waiting for him to attack then start my throw so the ball hits just as he finishes his attack so you get a guaranteed hit. The problem is Entei actually staying in the ball, which never seems to happen. I have seen people with great records like 12 out of 15 but I am currently on 4 out of 18. It does seem to be mainly luck as other people I raid with use the same technique and have caught more than me although there is one person who is 0 for 11 even with hitting every ball. My raiding team consists on Omastar, Vaporeons and Gyarados' all with hydro pump. We usually have a squad of at least 10 but have been able to com

Legendary Raids and Egg Hatches

Hello Trainers! My luck over the last couple of days with Entei Raids has increased and after 0 for 10 I am now back to catching some. I haven't actually been able to do any legendary raids today as I am struggling to get a raid group together but I have a group for later and will definitely be out doing some raids later on! What I have been able to do today so far is hatch some 10k eggs! I hatched a Chansey which is great as I still don't have a Blissey and refuse to use rare candy as I am saving them all up for the end of the month when I will power up my most powerful Entei! Still hoping for that 100% IV. I also hatched a Lapras and a Snorlax. Unfortunately I also hatched 2 Sudowoodo's which I do think is a cool Pokemon but should not be in 10k eggs! For me I find a few wild Sudowoodo pretty much every day and its annoying seeing them come out in 10k eggs. I think they also need to remove Skarmory as again I don't think they are that rare and you definitely don&#

Pokemon Go

Hello Trainers, The EX Raid passes for Mewtwo raids have started to show a couple of days ago in Japan and America. We have not seen them in any other countries yet but they are on their way. A lot of people don't know how to get an EX raid pass. Well the answer to that is to do as many raids as you can, preferably in your local area. The reason to do local raids is because you will get an EX raid pass if you have completed a raid at a gym 'recently' but we do not know how recent it has to be just yet so just complete as many raids as you can and try to spread them out across as many different gyms as possible. I would think to stop people who buy loads of raid passes and complete lots of raids daily from getting an advantage, the raids you have to do to get an EX raid pass can be from a few days or even weeks back but we don't know and only time will tell! I will do a full post on Mewtwo raids soon so you will know how to take them down. We do already know that t

Entei Raid with 4 People and Rare Catch

Image
Hello Trainers Today I tried an Entei Raid with only 4 people! We weren't able to find a bigger group, which was probably due to the terrible weather. We were all level 30 and used good counters such as Vaporeon and Omastar and it was close battle but we ran out of time, a few more seconds and we would have managed it. This is the first Entei Raid I have not managed to complete but we gave it a good go and I can't believe how close we were! Luckily I did find a wild Golem with pretty good IVs and this is the first Golem I have ever found in the wild. I found this in the same spot as the wild Lapras I found the other day, which indicates that some spots are better for rare spawns then others. Let me know how your raiding is going and any rare spawns you've found!

Unlucky Day for Pokemon Go

Image
Hello Trainers, Yesterday I had some great finds and did 3 Entei Raids. Every Rare find ran away along with every Entei! Lapras is a very rare Pokemon for everyone and yesterday I found my second ever one but it broke out of every ball even when I used golden razzberries and ran away. Other people in my area also found a few Lapras' yesterday, which is strange as no one has found a wild one in months and then 3 in one day.... maybe its just a coincidence. I have taken over as may gyms in the area as I could, which was pretty easy due to the bad weather and managed to get my 50 coins for yesterday and today already. I would definitely recommend trying to get these 50 coins a day as it will allow you to buy more raid passes without spending any real money so you can do more than one raid a day for free. Let me know how your raiding is going and if you have got any rare finds recently!

Shiny Pokemon

Image
Hello Trainers, After finding over 600 Magikarp I finally found a shiny! Unfortunately is was only 40CP with terrible IVs but my first shiny! I probably will end up evolving it but hopefully I can find a better one. There are only 5 possible shiny Pokemon you can catch in Pokemon Go: Magikarp, Gyarados, Pichu, Pikachu and Raichu. You are able to hatch shiny Pichu in 2km eggs but along with finding any shiny this is incredibly rare! I will be doing more Entei raids today and will let you know how I get on! Let me know any shiny Pokemon that you've managed to find!

Pokemon Go Raiding

Hello Trainers, Its pretty horrible weather today in England, which makes it harder to get a raid group together. I have managed to complete one Entei raid but even with hitting great/excellent throws on every ball I didn't manage to catch him but wasn't too disappointed as it was a pretty bad IV one. There one one person at the raid who got the 100% IV 1930CP Entei and caught him on the first ball! Although no luck so far on the Entei raids today I did manage to find this monster of a Snorlax: Let me know in the comments how your raids are going and if you got any rare finds!

Legendary Dogs

Hello Trainers, Over the next 3 months everyone will get a go at battling, and hopefully catching, all three of the Legendary beasts. This will explain how to take each one down and when each one is visiting you! At the moment the beasts can be found as follows: Raikou can be found in the America's until 30th September  Entei can be found in Europe and Africa until 30th September Suicune can be found in Asia-Pacific until 30th September Once we get to October the legendary beasts will rotate and you will have a chance to catch a new legendary but lose your chance at the current one so make sure you capture your beast before the end of the month!  So lets talk about how you take these down: First off please don't be the guy using Blissey or Snorlax in a legendary raid as you are doing very little to help the group! Maybe as your last Pokemon as an anchor to keep you in if you have a large group that can easily take it down. But start off by u

Raid Groups

Hello Trainers, A lot of you will know how hard it is to find enough people to raid with, especially if you live in rural areas. The way I have managed to solve this problem is with a Facebook group. I am part of several Pokemon Go Facebook groups and by the looks of it a lot of areas have them. If not it is easy enough to make your own and people will join it as there are still loads of people that play the game, you just need to find them! These groups are useful as people will post about nearby raids along with tactics they have found useful and you will find the group you need to take down those legendary beasts. Another useful took is gymhuntr.com. This is a website that will scan your local area for gyms and let you know where raids are happening. This provides an easy way to locate raids and plan a meet up time with fellow Pokemon Go players. This is what I have been doing to take down raids for the last few months and it has been very successful. This is currently my to

Hello to all of you still playing the amazing game that is Pokemon Go. I have been thinking about creating a Pokemon Go blog for a while now but with the legendary beasts now released I feel it is time to share my Pokemon Go experiences from the last year as well as updates on how to take down these legendary raids. This first post will be about Entei raids as I am a European player and have the next month to take down and capture this legendary beast. I have only managed to attempt 3 Entei raids so far but have managed to catch 2. As many of you will have realised 2 out of 3 is a pretty good record. I will be taking on many many more legendary raids this month and attempt to catch as many Entei as possible and hopefully getting one that has 100% IV (1930CP). Below is an IV/CP chart so you can get the IV's of the Entei you have managed to catch for yourself. Entei as a raid boss has a CP of 38628 and can be found until 30th September in Europe and Africa. He is a pure fire t
