Expample-

Fight Lugia normally 42,835 CP
Chance to Catch and recieveitems.

Or

Fight Lugia CP 18,000 BUT
Choose to either Get Items as a Reward, or Chance to Catch as a reward. Not both.

Right now option 1. Ask me again in 2 months when people put the phones down again. lol

What I want right now is for Level 1 and 2 raids to be free since you can do them on your own with ease. It'll keep people playing but also help trainers out as well.

Go fest attendees check your Pokemon and your coin balance, got my free Lugia today and my 14,000 coins!

That's awesome, I fully expected the refund to be issued after the promo boxes were off the shop.

Sorry didn't word it the best.

When you click to join the raid, would you like it if they gave you those 2 options.

I would love it. Show up to Tyranitar or Lugia. If its you a buddy no one else shows up and take it down. I really only do lvl 3 raids because I want the rare candy. The wife and I and take them down with no problem, but the tier 4 we need other peoples help. But if they allowed you to choose a lower option half the reward, I would do 4 star raids simply for items not needed the catch.

Just an FYI I found out about last night

If you search on your pokemon "Evolve" it will bring up only the guys you have candy for.

So yesterday was an awesome day. I ended up taking off work so I could finally grind. Got about 6 hours in:

1/2 on Articuno raids
2/3 on Lugia raids
1/1 on Snorlax

Hatched a crap ton of eggs yesterday, best being a Snorlax as I was getting ready to raid the Snorlax! Also, have no idea how much XP I went up but I feel like I was about 300,000 away from level 34 and now am 82,000 into level 34. Also got enough candy for Togetic. So now the only pokemon I need left currently before the new Legendaries come are Mareep, Flaafy, Ampharos, Steelix (can't get that damn metal coat) and Unknown.

So are we thinking it will be around 3 PM CT today when the double event ends?

Congrats!

I'm:
10/15 on Articuno
4/8 on Lugia

Too bad you didn't have a Mareep because with walking distances the way they are for this event, you could have had an Ampharos with ease.

Yea I know, I wish. Oh well I switched my Togepi to Magikarp and just raked in a ton of candy only having to walk 0.3. Now that I look back I had to of gotten more than 400,000 exp yesterday. I just went on a half hour walk with a lucky egg and mass evolved stuff with hitting stops and I just went from 82,000 to 218,058 in 30 minutes. I should pay more attention because I probably did a Sh*t ton yesterday.

How much XP did everyone get during this event?

I'm at about 3.3 Million.

Not really sure, but probably close to 4 million. I got the 3 million for 37-38 in like 58 hours, but other than that just some 100k here, 100k there. I don't know what I started at, wish I did. But I'm at like 200k right now, will probably get 100k more but thatll be it. I have ZERO pokeballs of any kind right now lol

I'm down to 30 ultras lol. This has been a draining event. Sunday - Thursday, I have caught 600, 600, 500, 600, 450 today. Lots of Dust. Already have over 2k pidgey candy since using all of them Saturday.

[doobypenguin]

jeez you guys are true grinders. i'm only at about 1.7 mil since double xp started on Sunday. I'm grinding for 1 more hour before then so probably another 150k tops. i'll be officially halfway to 40 lol with my 10 million total XP. lol.
hatched 6 10km eggs today and got a sudowodo, 2 larvitars, 1 lapras, 1 mareep (with 64 candies), and 1 chansey. also hatched a perfect female nidoran lol.
anyways, i can't be upset at my progress...i guess if i didn't have a side account i'd have 2.4 mil more xp on my main lol

oh and i lanced an articuno this morning which was an ordeal because i was organizing a group that took forevvver. the it was 1663 95.6% iv so i was pretty happy. did another cuno during lunch.. it ran. so i'm 6/11 in articunos right now.. and a dismal 2 for 9 on lugias. need to start doing more lugias i guess.

[Divino]

Level 35 now. About halfway to 36

[mikecamp99]

34 Red. 232133/1250000 That's a long ways to 35 lol

[chrisfaceoff]

38 for me now

Also this game sucks without double everything haha.

[petesahuttt]

Level 36 now, 45% towards 37, Team Instinct. And yes, playing this morning really sucked not getting double xp and seeing so few spawns

[doobypenguin]

lol ok ok ok i'll update the list sheesh. :P
so i ended up 487k past lvl 37. i picked up another 100k through normal grinding last night after the event ended. I'll try to do a few lucky eggs here and there to slowly grind but i don't think i'll be getting to 38 for at least another month, but these raids still give me 10k+ experience so if i do a lot of raids on saturday, it'll surely add up.
i crit catched another 1663 articuno this morning! nice pop nice pop nice pop throw pop nice pop great crit catch. lol I lanced a 1663 articuno yesterday.. i should really just stop at 1 per morning cause i did another one and it ran. so thats 7/13 articunos.
