PokeStop

Now that I'm level 21, I decided I would slow down with the speed-leveling.

1) It's not as easy to speed-level post-level 20.
2) All the items are unlocked at level 20, so I don't have that incentive anymore & that makes the process of speed-leveling boring and joyless for me.
3) I believe the eggs also stop scaling at level 20 as well.*

I do like gym battling but again, it's not something I must do or feel compelled to do.

So, instead, I'm going to concentrate on completing my pokedex as much as I can! Because, I'm gonna be honest, I have some major holes in my collection. Getting fire-type pokémon seems to be practically impossible for where I live, but I can catch water pokémon. I just need to go toward bodies of water!

In conclusion: I'll definitely be going back! Not only is it a great site for water pokémon, the people were super friendly and fun! I'm going to see if I can organize a PokeParty with my friends because we all have the same problem of needing water pokémon.



* The CP of the pokémon in the eggs you hatch correlate to the level you were when you picked up those eggs. That's why it's in your best interest to hatch eggs as efficiently as you can (I realize there are accessibility issues with this) because otherwise you'll be hatching low CP pokémon when you're, like, level 17.

If you live in the U.S., Michaels is holding a promotion for today only. Show a cashier which team you're on and you'll get a 50% off coupon to use on any one regular price item.

Which brings us to today's topic! In the time since PokeGo launched, lots of businesses have taken advantage of the marketing potential. Bars constantly drop lures. Cafes do rotating discounts for the three teams. Restaurants make cookies in the shape of pokeballs.

What are some of the promotions you've encountered during your time playing the game?

dragonfly's post got me thinking. What's the most interesting/weird/unusual PokeStop you've visited?
