Eggs hatching eggs šŸ˜µ

Phew, thought you would be gone until this time tonmorow :sweat_smile:

Attach your phone to the top of a roomba and just let it do its thing.

The fan on the ceiling will NOT work, since Pokemon go is no pedometer but an app which uses geolocation to determine distance. But a pokewalker from Pokemon Heartgold and Soulsilver will work with the ceiling fan since that actually is a pedometer.

Is there a city centre or something like that where there are a lot of shops? Perhaps you could go there and then walk around for your eggs

When Iā€™m tired of walking I find that a big parking lot where everybody drives slowly to find a space works well for me. Try to spin a stop or catch a pokemon every time you turn around or just turn, else flaky network can wind up getting you credit for less (or even no) km.

Or find a place where your trainer keeps pacing around constantly looking for his location; an hour of that can rack up some distance while you just sit (or park).

Egg distance gets updated every 4 minutes, so itā€™s best to walk straight for 4 minutes and when the distance updates you can change direction.

perhaps this can help. I used this to get my 20km for the eeveelutions for the celibi quest.in notime and with ease:

I have a spot at home where this is proven to work. Look for a similar place

When at home and i have the game running, i close my phone, drive to the roundabout at the end of the street, turn left and drive to the next intersection. There is a gym where i can park. There i reopen my phone. Once updated, BAM, 500 meters gained on my eggs (and buddy). Close the phone, drive home, open phone, update, 500 meterā€¦
I use this all the time when hatching eggs to time it with star pieces

important:

  • donā€™t be too fast. Distance tracking caps at 10,5km/h (IIRC). so driving 500 meter in 1 minute = too fast.
  • donā€™t be too slow. As mentioned before in this topic: egg distance updates every 4 minutes. This trick has often worked for me over longer distances and time but is not garanteed.
  • Note that i keep saying closing the phone and not the app.
  • you need to find a sweetspot where you can do this. Experiment with closing and reopening your phone. It might even be enough if you have a spawnspot to close your phone while driving to the next spawspot.

Nice Guide :wink:

Brazilā€™s not the safest place to walk around with your phone hanging either. What I do is keep my phone in my pocket with the screen on (Make sure to activete the battery saver option on game settings). You canā€™t catch pokemon this way, but it will get you some distance progress.
And also, donā€™t walk alone/middle of the night!

I think better is a GO+ in this cases, the phone in the pocket with blacked screen, and the GO+ let the app still work and you have a chance of 50% to catch mons, apart of recollecting km and things from the stops.

IMHO the Go+ is nice but is only usefull for tracking distance when walking. When driving of even on a bike the thing rarely will add distance.

If you go with the bike like Armstrong, it doesnā€™t work, hihi, but I make a lot of km doing ā€œwalksā€ with my bike.
