inkstone: small blue flowers resting on a wooden board (PokeGo)

Good morning, fellow trainers! Thanks for spreading the word about the community! We've been in business for less than 4 days and we're at ~100 members/subscribers! Not bad for a community I started on a whim. Let's keep things awesome and cool, and if you have any concerns or suggestions, feel free to hit me up via PM.

Anyway, here are some game-related highlights from the past week…

• Pokémon Go launched in Hong Kong! A big, warm welcome to the City of Life!

• Nintendo stock prices plummeted as investors belatedly realized the company doesn't actually make Pokémon Go. Awkward. (source)

• The Pokémon Go Plus accessory has been delayed until September. Were any of you planning on getting this? Not being a tech nerd myself, I'm curious! (source)

• In addition to revealing the Team Leaders, the SDCC PokeGo panel teased the future of the game. Forthcoming features include trading, PokeStop customizations, and potential healing centers. They're also planning to fix the three-step tracking bug (thank goodness!) and to address gym poaching. And given the fact that they unveiled Blanche, Candela & Spark, it sounds like we'll be interacting with our team leaders via the game at some point in the future as well. (source)

Any other PokeGo bits of news from your neck of the woods?

Yesterday I took a screenshot from my house of the outline of Jigglypuff, taunting me. (Rare Pokemon appear periodically but I can never actually find them because tracking sucks.) Then as soon as I was done, Jigglypuff appeared and I caught him.

Later I decided to walk to hatch some eggs and my 10k egg hatched and I got an Eevee, which would be great except Eevees are not *that* uncommon here and it was not even a high level Eevee and come ON 10k egg.

Also, I was chasing another alleged Jigglypuff nearby and I even had incense on as I walked. Did I find a Jigglypuff? No, apparently I should have just stayed at my house for that.

Useful info I did find: the wooded path behind my house has zero Pokemon, even with incense. Which is good to know because I haven't wanted to walk there when it's dark but have been sad I couldn't find out (it's kinda pretty?) and also the nearby side road has a LOT of Pokemon sadly after the slight hill.

Has anyone else caught a high level/rare Pokemon out of the blue? Also, have people had good luck with eggs? Asking for a friend.

(1. Memes are absolutely an acceptable substitute for meter, trust me, I did a semester on poetry composition once.

2. ZUBATS, WHY? And yet, they're still better than pidgeys.)

(I'm sorry, [personal profile] inkstone, I didn't know how to tag this. It barely seems to qualify as a fan work.)
