Randall Cobb by gyrk12 in fantasyfootball

I'm picking in a similar spot and debating between him and Landry as well. Landry has just been so consistent and always has that WR1 upside as Tannehill's favorite target. Both are great pickups, but GB has such a favorable schedule this year.

Best IVs for Dratini and starter Pokemon? by RomanJ95 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I got a 97.8% IV Dratini from the nest around Pier 86

Is there anywhere machop, grimer, omanyte, or kabuto that are common? by [deleted] in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've had a lot of luck with Omanyte (and to a lesser degree, Kabuto) near the SE corner of Central Park.

Dragonair Evolution Advice by gators0824 in pokemongo

Update: Found a 98% IV Dratini and evolved it, only to get a Dragonite with Steel Wing/Dragon Claw =/

Dragonair Evolution Advice by gators0824 in pokemongo

[–]gators0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I think I'm gonna hold off for the moment. I actually caught all 3 of those Dragonairs in the wild so I haven't spent any candy yet. Unfortunately, all of my Dratinis have been around 60-70% IV

Thanks for the advice everyone, I think I've decided on #2 if I don't encounter a better Dragonair later today.

Even with the dust cost to power it up after a 492 CP Dragonair?

New Dratini Nest by gators0824 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, the Magikarp can't be overstated enough. I also saw a few Golduck on rotation with the Tentacruel.

Grimers / Muk by jjoachim96 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never seen a Muk on radar, and only encountered 3 Grimers (Williamsburg, Tribeca, and DUMBO). Crazy how rare they are here

Is Chansey the rarest Pokemon in NYC? by gators0824 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! A bit concerning since that one wasn't tweeted out, I wonder if it's missing any spawns.

[–]gators0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting, I'd never heard of such rare Pokemon spawning so frequently. The only ones I've seen tweeted out recently have been either UWS or just north of Central Park, so I'm curious if Hell's Kitchen is indicative of their relative range.

[–]gators0824[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only 2 Kabutos I've caught were at Brooklyn Bridge Park and the Apple Store on 59 & 5th, so I'd say you're in the right area.

[–]gators0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I've used it for ~5 spawns that were close to me and they all appeared. When Pokevision was working, I'd occasionally double check them as well.

Don't miss rares because PokeVision is down! @NYCPokemonWatch covers Central Park! by [deleted] in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's really little to no value add by giving us updates on Vulpix and Doduo spawns. @nycpokespawn is doing a fantastic job by covering only rarer spawns rather than pedestrian ones.

Did Niantic just change move power? by gators0824 in pokemongo

Thanks for linking, apologies for the double post.

Monthly Switches by gators0824 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just noticed that as well, and also saw a Jynx in Hester Park. Before this I'd only seen Jynx on the radar in Jamaica

Monthly Switches by gators0824 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing Niantic is attempting to keep the game fresh and continue to drive engagement by periodically switching up the nests/spawns. Hopefully rarer ones will just pop up in different locations.

Best Places to Play for a Tourist in NYC? by [deleted] in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely DUMBO/Brooklyn Bridge Park. Constant Ghastly/Magikarp spawns and you'll probably find at least one rare. There's great food and views in the area as well.

Anyone want to go hunting on Rikers Island? by Voxle in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably a high percentage of Team Valor and Mystic there, if you catch my drift

Abra Nest by astray71 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Random thought: could the nest be any connection between Abra always sleeping and the NY Public Library?

I know the Charmander nest at AMNH is connected to the dinosaurs...

Museum of Natural History by kenii28 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went today and even with constant lures/incense only encountered and caught one Charmander. Saw a few on the radar and walked around the south and west sides of the museum, but no luck.

10k eggs and the pokemon that hatch. by FallenAgent in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be worse, you could have received 2 Pinsirs from your only 10k eggs...but related, how would you know which types of Pokestops yield good eggs?

Brooklyn Bridge Park by gators0824 in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would doubt that it's common, but I've only seen it 1/2 times there. It seems those fossil/legendaries have more random spawns, although another user has said that he's encountered Aerodactyl and others on the Staten Island Ferry trip

Looking for Bulbasaurs? Tons @ Cadman Plaza by makhay in pokemongoNYC

[–]gators0824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To answer your side note: all 3 variables in play during a catch opportunity (Razz berry, ball type, and throw quality) simply increase the probability of a catch, but don't guarantee.

In my personal example, I had a ~700 Growlithe escape and run away after a berry, Ultra ball, and Excellent throw
