pokestopHappy Friday, trainers!
This has been a relatively quiet week in PokeGo news. No launches in more territories. No updates...although people are wondering if we'll see one next week!
• Niantic has begun cracking down on botters and spoofers. Contrary to rumors you might be hearing, it appears to be only botters and GPS spoofers. People who claimed to have been banned for using IV checkers were later revealed to be spoofers. (source)
• Some of you might be aware of the horrible flooding that hit Louisiana. I hope our community members who live in Baton Rouge and Lafayette are all right! I know at least one of you does but I also know you're safe because you've checked in. I hope that is true for others. At any rate, Pokémon for Progress is organizing an item collection drive this Sunday. Spread the word, if you're inclined. (event info)
Any bits of news from your neck of the woods?

Also found a Rhyhorn spawning spot in a city park. I've caught a Rhyhorn each time I've gone there.
Planning on going to the island tonight to try and make way on harvesting Magikarp candies. This time I'm going to be prepared with a portable charger.
