I completely and utterly missed the slakoth event. Was sad I missed the opportunity for a pink sloth. It's not a common pokemon around here.Continuing the subject of shinies I got super lucky with the research tasks reward and got a shiny Latias!
As I understand it, there are 1 out of the 450, say, Growlithes you'll meet in the wild that are shiny -- pretty bad odds. But I tap on any Growlithe because hope springs eternal. There are a few species who are more likely to be shiny if they come from research tasks, raids, or are hatched from eggs (like some baby Pokemon). I think Community Day rates for the featured Pokemon are 1 in 25, and I've had good luck with that usually, but I'm sorry you haven't. Sometimes the odds just work out really bad even when shiny rates are increased.
Wow, congrats on your shiny Latias, that's super cool!I got lucky with the event this time - I was totally unaware, I opened the app quickly only to check if there are any pokéstops around (we were in an apartment on a holiday abroad, and we had a little rest time before we departed to an event that afternoon), and in the 5 minutes I had the app open I caught 3 Slakoths, 2 of which were shiny! (who came up with this colour choice though? Poor things look like they were shaved nekkid ) Slakoth is totally uncommon here as well (the single one I had so far was hatched), so I was super happy

Are all Pokémon are available in shiny versions, or is this feature limited to certain species only? If they are, do you already have all the others, or is Growlithe just a special want?
Well, there is a new quest thing that requests 1 more friend.7242 0663 8742 ^ Anyone want help fulfill that quest?
I’ve also got this quest! And I’d love to have some more Pokemon Go friends either way so I thought I’d post here.My friend code is 3073 8591 5546 I’ve sent you a request, banditpony!
Ooh thank you for the info about the Eevee (and the friend request)! I’m in love with shiny Mareep. So cute.Congrats on your Growlithe!
Now I'm wondering if it is absolutely necessary to evolve that Dratini for the quest to accept the evolution, or if it can be any Dratini - or Dragonair, for that matter. I have had two Dragonairs for a long time now, one was kept to be evolved further, and I would then wait with evolving one of those into a Dragonite until I'm at that step of the quest. Which I might not be able to complete anyway, because it involves trading and I literally don't know a single person who plays and is local. Another quest has also been parking in my quest list for months because of this same reason.
The checklist also reminded me how insanely few shinies I have... Squirtle, Magikarp, Hariyama (caught as a Makuhita), Ho-Oh, Poochyena, Aron, Swablu, Smoochum and Slakoth are the only ones I have in shiny form. I like Swablu the most, but Magikarp the goldfish is also very cute I' m also happy to hear you are getting a shiny Growlithe - did the trade go through in the end?
Last week we spent a long weekend abroad, and holy boy, Novi Sad in Serbia is one big Slakoth nest! Remember how I said I felt lucky finding 3 Slakoths when we were abroad the last time, as my city just doesn't have them at all, and the single one I had before that was hatched? Here they were lying aroung everywhere! :O I wasn't playing a lot, but I still managed to catch enough to evolve one up until Slaking! I also found enough Skorupi to evolve one (this Pokémon is also totally uncommon here), so my weekend was totally successful Pokémon-wise. The only downside is that it's now slightly boring to be back home, there's hardly anything new coming up anymore here for me nowadays, so I'm starting to lose my interest...
SpoilerI'm pretty sure you can evolve any Dratini to meet the requirements of Step 2 What you'll want to do and what I didn't do is save that Dratini-turned-Dragonair for Step 6, because one of the tasks is "Evolve a Dragonair"! The other two tasks on that step -- "Make a new friend" (again!) and "Win a level 3 or higher raid" give you 60 Dratini candies each. I'm pretty sure you can choose to evolve your Dratini-turned-Dragonair or the one you already have and had planned to evolve.
Just wanted to stop by and say thank you to whom ever is in Pennsylvania because I hatched a shiny Cleffa from and egg from you!I know it’s random and the friends don’t actually influence egg results but I thought I’d share
Loona, in a pinch maybe you could have a friend or family member download the game for the trade?
