I had a good time! I was actually up in PDX this weekend, and decided to stay in town through the event instead of driving a couple of hours. I caught five shinies (two more than I got on Chikorita day!) and evolved one to a Metang and one to a Metagross. I also evolved two more Metagross with good stats.
I actually bumped into two Portland friends while I was wandering, and after the event I traded some monsters--I gave someone an Alolan Sandshrew that I got from an egg lilacsigil gave me, and got a shiny Machop in return!
In hindsight, I think I had more fun in downtown Eugene. Though I may have had more fun if I'd actually gone all the way downtown PDX, as the park I was wandering around, while it had an abundance of pokestops, wasn't heavily populated and didn't have any raids happening. But I didn't really suffer any network troubles, except for a bit of a hiccough when the event ended, but no harm done. I'm looking forward to the next one and curious what it's going to be!
