Spent the last 2 hours driving around parking lots, but I got my shiny Umbreon with Last Resort.
Now to start a new Espeon (this Umvreon was supposed to be Espeon).

I caught well over 600 Eevee, got one 100% and the rest were all trash lol. They were even weather boosted on the first day.

I think I caught over 400 Eevee this weekend, I ended up with only 11 shinies and all of them terrible. I have two in the mid to low 70s and the rest are all trash tier. Bit of a bummer.

By the way. I'm a new returning player. I think I only played for a week or 2 at launch, but with the announcement of the Let's Go games, as well as two co-workers who are still heavily playing I decided to jump back in to see what has changed. I've managed to jump from level 8 to 26 over the course of 3 weeks. I expect the addiction levels to die down fairly soon, but I definitely will keep playing for a while. I've added my account to the spreadsheet and will send everyone a friend invite later today/this week.

Is there still a daily XP cap?

There is not a daily XP cap but there are a number of different caps in the game - if you can explain what your looking for here then it might be easier to answer

e.g. this is an old video now of someone gaining 5,000,000 XP in a single day

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2nhlrKwfYI

A lot of the caps they have are around how many stops you an spin in a 24 hour period / how many Pokemon you can catch / etc etc but I've never seen anything about an actual XP cap

I caught 12 in the end, and my wife caught 16. We called it about hour & half early yesterday. We got a little tired. But got all the needed shinies I need. (Still walking for Espeon)

Saturday I missed out on the even entirely when my phone died and I had no charger while i was out.
Sunday I managed to get 3 shiny eevee so that was awesome. One evolved into a Vaporeon, one into Jolteon and the last one I'll probably bring right over to LGPE to make sure i get Flareon. Shiny Eevee trio forever baby

Now that I hit 40, and with Eevee CD done and likely no events between now and Yokosuka, this seems like the perfect time to take a break from the game. I'll get my daily raid in and my first catch/spin bonuses, but taking a step back from the grind to recharge sounds like a good idea.

Now watch them drop Celebi next week.

What parks Pokémon change? Did your park just become a nest?

There was a push notification late last week that different pokemon would show up at parks and my lake park became a quil nest. Easily 15 of them per lap. Used to be a mix of water pokemon and I'd get 5 magikarp per lap among others. Now I get 1 or 2.

That's a normal nest rotation that happens every two weeks. Biome spawns should be unaffected by nesting.

It's also possible Magikarp was nesting there and isn't now. Magikarp in particular has been an exceedingly uncommon spawn (outside of events that boosted it) for over a year. I would be very surprised to learn a biome existed where they still spawned with anywhere near that frequency.

Thanks for the explanation. Hm, maybe brushy creek in north Austin has them. Otherwise I'd have to drive downtown and fuck that.

I apologize to anyone who receives gifts from a Scientology building, but sometimes I'm not getting enough gifts to NOT send bad ones.

For that matter, same for a Hooters restaurant I sometimes walk by.

Eevee event was great. Ended up with 22 shiny Eevee, which has become:

5 Vaporeon
5 Flareon
2 Jolteon
1 Umbreon
1 Soon-to-be Espeon
3 Spares for Glaceon, Leafeon and Sylveon
5 I have yet to decide what to do with

Not exceptional stats amongst them, most in seventies and eighties. One Flareon is 90 and the one I've saved for Sylveon is ~96.

So i somehow am still playing the game for the daily quest and bonus. Guess i will continue to do so until lets go is release or i got bored haha. Game is still small and mindless enough for the daily grind on the bus.

I realized that the community day don't really entices me to play the game more, i opened up the app for only a while longer during the weekend.Happy that i got a shiny since i didn't leave my house at all. Fought a few raids since i returned to the game but won't go out of my way to get any rarer raids or Pokemon. Super casual player now but i must admit the game improved a lot and managed to kept me playing for longer than i expected .

I'll probably catch a couple of shiny's and call it a day next month. Actually kind of relieved that I won't have to go as hard as I did with Eevee.

yeah community day is more fun when you can dip in for 60-90 minutes, get shiny versions of all the evolutions, and then dip out.
Agreed. Unless it's a personal favorite shiny variant that I want to stockpile I'll usually just go really hard during the first hour and then just chill at home with an incense activated.

I really hope that one of the next couple of Community Day's is something unusual or super rare. My pick would be Porygon. I love the shiny versions of that evolution line.

Not an impressive shiny, so I'll be good. Seems they did change the European hours for this one?
