pokestop | Game logic is weird logic

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.

I caught a fairly high Onix out of nowhere, and a fairly high Clefable like right beside him (and it was a stroppy little brat about STAYING IN THE DAMN BALL too, even when I used a great ball. :|).

I also caught a Vulpix unexpectedly yesterday while out with my dad driving down to buy paint for the condo, and a Growlithe unexpectedly over by one of the parks. Also a Dratini.

I have hatched a Ponyta and a Snorlax that I was really pleased with. I am deeply annoyed by how none of my eggs give me more charmanders because I want to evolve my starter into a damn dragon. *GRUMP*
