Do you remember that last time I told you that I will try my luck by buying more pens in order to get more TCG cards ?
Yesterday I bought 3 pens and got total of 9 cards :
Did you find these better than previous haul ?

Wow, I never tried this card-game, but it seems as if they give away the elite chops…

Nope.
I was lucky to get them. Another kid purchased that pen after seeing me buying. And that kid opened up that packet there only 
And I peeked secretly to find that he got Piplup, Dialga and Ditto !!

On Holiday in the Opal capital of the world for 3 days. Only a 9hr dive from home so will get some good distance Trade Pokémon.
Staying in an under ground Motel that’s been built into a disused Opal Mine. There are lots on under ground dwelling here to escape the dry +40 degree days through the Months of November-February. Got 2 Tours booked for today, looking forward to it.

Oo… I have a niece named Opal!
Actually - now I think about it - her mother spent a couple of years ‘travelling’ around Australia on a student work Visa right before she was born… 
Kanga - you didn’t happen to be on holiday in the same place around about a decade ago did you?!?

Now that you mention it………… no. It’s the first time I’ve been to Coober Pedy. A very interesting place indeed. Commonly known as Australia’s Wild West from the lawlessness in its early establishment days.

I noticed this little treat on sfgate today and thought some here might find it interesting (or at least cute).

Are Air-Hostesses dressed as Chansey or Audino to serve the trainers flying from there ?
Jokes apart, the plane reminds me of my childhood toy, which is similar to this but the difference was the fact that there was Doraemon art on it !!
This is definitely the Eevolved Airplane.

That’s very disorienting! Did you try to catch anything like that?
I haven’t. Should’ve tried indeed.
I remember there were several times rumours about Niantic trying to let the screen swap. But it was never oficially anounct. Maybe you were in one of these moments?
I tried it out but I didn’t get the screen to turn sideways again. I think it was a weird glitch.

More than tilted sideways, that screenshot is looking like you were game on your PC !
And why it feels that I am able to see wider area in map w.r.t. normal view…
On the screen shot it actually does. On the game on my phone itself it looks MASSIVE

Honestly i wouldnt completely mind a screen tilt feature you could toggle in the settings, that would be cool to try out for myself!

Is anyone getting involved in the set routes feature?
I haven’t bothered at this stage.
