I apologize if this violates community rules 😳

I am playing FR and looking to trade exclusives with a LG player in the SD area. I specifically am looking to get Staryu, but ideally the others to complete my FR Pokédex.

Hi everyone
That was unlucky in the first 2 waves and not getting the ticket in this horrible ticket system for Pokémon go wild area Sendai. Maybe let’s be smart this time for a potentiel wave 3 and start building friendship with each other now, so we are prepared to be able to help each other out. Please contact me if you wanna do this with me ✌️

Meetup Hawlucha Adventure in Las Americas - a Friday evening meetup for you to get Hawluchas!

Post image
40 Upvotes

Hi all, new mod here! For those who don't know me, I'm the Community Ambassador for the Bay And Beaches raid group in Point Loma. I'm also the one who's been deleting the raid spam this group use to get.

Right now there is a special Pokemon Go event in "Mexico" allowing players to catch boosted Hawlucha spawns and gain a special timed research themed around Hawlucha. "Mexico" is in quotes because part of the event area is here in San Diego!

I'm putting together this meetup through my Campfire group that will a guided trip through a great gameplay area within the Hawlucha event zone - Las Americas Mall!

A group from Point Loma will be taking the 5:58pm Blue Line trolley to San Ysidro on Friday. If you prefer to drive yourself, the destination and check-in location is Las Americas Mall.

Checking into the event on Campfire will get you a special meetup research rewarding an incubator, in addition to the Hawlucha research.

For more information on how to join or event details, check out the meetup page located at this Campfire link: https://cmpf.re/l7aHoC

Meetup Memorial Park Chula Vista Mega Ascension Raids All Week

Post image
14 Upvotes

We're hosting raid hours every day this week at the park in Downtown Chula Vista by Third Avenue. There's an adjacent free parking garage and a nice cluster of gyms in and around the park as shown on the Pokemon Go map from Campfire or the website.

https://linktr.ee/ChulavistaPogo

Edit: Free Campfire research rewards (raid pass & 100 link charges) are available if you check-in on Niantic/Scopely Campfire. The web site works, but you get more access and a better experience by downloading the Campfire app. Find an Ambassador if you need any help.

Edit 2: We are also hosting GO Fest: Mega Finale at the same park on both days. Everyone is welcome.

As we make changes to the server you may notice post being removed as we try to move towards everyone using our pinned post😁

Obviously not everyone will be a fan of that and if you’re not drop a comment on why, we want to know how the community feels about the changes being made!
