Pokemon Go!

I would says this list below would be your best bet, else you need to bump into one of the players in the group which might be tricky as they normally (it would seem), meet up closer to the end of the raid ie when there is 30/40 min left on the clock

Us admins are going to make this easier on you guys. We are going to list all the admins of the whatsapp groups, that we know of, and their corresponding locations. If I have missed anyone or you would like yourself removed or added, please let me or one of the mods know
If you wanna join the groups please PM/DM/Message/Carrier pigeon them. (Or in some cases, click the whatsapp link)

Anyone able to go to Eco Blvd?

so MewTwo raids are haping in Japan right now.
9 hour raid timer on them....
 
That was unexpected, wonder when we are going to see them and how many spoofers have one already...

no spoofers have it. you need to scan a qr code at a desk at one of the gyms. after battling one of the 3 raid bosses, you cannot enter the other 2.
I have not checked any of the spoofing reddits yet to disprove it....

and I honestly dont even know if it is going to release in the rest of the world...

Good to know, now for the hype machine to start
 
Anyone got some opinions on the exclusive raid system with regards to the following points

*must have recently done a raid at the gym
*invite only

Personally i'm worried that i might have not done a "recent" raid at a gym and then miss out because of it.

On another topic, has your local raid groups also "died" down after the unofficial end of zapdos raids?
 
Durban raid groups have quietened down somewhat, but there are a few people still doing raids. I think a lot of people got their set of legendaries, and then disappeared. I'm still trying to help out as there are some who haven't got them all.

I managed to catch 2 shiny Magikarp. Both not worth evolving though.

Good to know there are still some fighting the good fight. We had a couple of hardcore peeps in the sandton group like that, but i think they've grown tired, now we are sitting in a situation where some of my work mates still short lugia/articuno/zapdos and we cannot get a raid crew together

I'm more concerned that the group the system makes not being able to make it.. i.e. U get a pass and 3 people show up

Very true concern that, i'm also assuming they want to keep it "exclusive" and so they will probably structure it in a similar way as the yokohama event. but yes, if that's the case, you run the risk of not being able to attend the specific event.
Although, I would probably prefer that, because just like the lore not everyone is supposed to have a articuno/moltres/zapdos and at the moment, people have 10 to 20 of each, which is simply diluting their value

Pokemon Go has diluted the value of pokemon with the Raid system. In the past you needed to collect all those candy by catching many Dratini or Larvatars .. now u can just do a raid and get a Tyranator. <-- so much for walking off eggs & candy to evolve it where its not common.

Presently I think the game is falling into the trap of giving the player base things for the sake of getting income in making the competitive nature of the game rather pointless
 
Don't know if it's just me but there's something really dodge going on this morning. I keep getting network errors, and I don't think it's my cell signal quality.
