Had the same thing with a 227 Scyther and a 204 Staryu. Annoying but part of the "pokefun"! :pQuote:

Dropped into my school to do some programming for next term and sadly it is a dead zone, which makes sense, or students would be catching mons all day. However the streets and parks around it are doduo filled!
Today's new Pokemon catches were Meowth, Mankey, Exeggcute, Geodude, Abra, Pikachu, Golbat and Raticate
I also caught several more Pidgey, Pidgeotto, Rattata and another Koffing
As well as hatched my first egg. magikarp...
Since I'm pretty much over my cold now I think tomorrow I'll be going for a nice long walk. And taking on my first gym. Hopefully I stand a chance with my not so powerful Pokemon
Rest assured that you can defeat gym leaders with pokemon significantly under their strength. One on one my 600cp pidgeot knocked off a 1200cp dragonite.
Oh that's good. I think the only local gym here is currently being reigned over by a 300-something CP Arcanine
My strognest Pokemon is my Golbat at about 240CP
You can also team up with friends and take down gyms at the same time, if the game does not freeze, glitch or otherwise malfunction!
Types also come into consideration, so if you have an under strength Laura's going up against a stronger arc anime, you should still have an advantage.
Should some places be off limits for this game/app/thing? Apparently people have been "hunting" for Pokémon at a Holocaust Museum. :eek:
So long as it doesn't involve trespassing or any other illegal activity, so be it. People have been seen running onto freeways and other far more serious/dangerous areas chasing pokemon, so while it can be seen as inappropriate, I think walking through museums/graveyards/etc is the least of our concerns.Quote:

Yeah the amount of people I see showing up to pokestops in cars is amazing. I just hope they arent trying to catch them whilst driving too...Quote:

I don't see an issue with a museum being a Pokestop (generally the location is outside such as out the front). If anything it is attracting people to the area who may be willing to go inside, not to hunt pokemon but to actually see the site they are there for.
I know I have seen some interesting artwork throughout Surry Hills that I never would have seen if not for this game.
I've been having good fun with this when I am in a larger city for work, around home there isn't much to go after. I've been able to get to the wharf when lures were active so I could catch some water pokemon and at work I can sit on a PokeStop all day getting XP
- and just as I was leaving someone added a lure to that PokeStop and I managed to get some very high CP Pokemon and some new additions to the team.
Sadly what seems common in one area of the world is very rare in another
