Anyone else playing with the appraise feature from the latest update? I'm curious if anyone has any exceptionally good or bad Pokemon. My beloved new Nidoqueen is apparently very low IVs. Whatever, I love her!
I have no idea what this is.
Check the App Store or google play store (depending on if you have apple or android) to see if the latest version of PoGo is available. Mine was available about 8pm EST. Dowload the update, and then on a pokemon's detail screen tap the 3 lines in the lower right corner. It used to say Favorite and Transfer, the new update added Apprasal. Your team leader appears and tells you how good or bad that particular Mon is, based on their IVs.

Thanks! That's kinda fun. But rather confusing. I can't tell if this is good or bad.

I've tried this and it basically says the same thing about every Pokemon I have. Maybe mine doesn't work? it says that the stats are the best they've seen and then it goes in to say it is small. I have a hard time believing that about all 15 Pokemon I've clicked on, lol. Especially on my highest guy that I've expended all.the.stardust on.
For maximum amusement, change your Pokemon's name to "dick" before you get it appraised. Perhaps yours will be colossal, or breathtaking, or "the tiniest one on record"!
Apparently lots of my Pokemon are record breakingly small, lol.
I'm over halfway through level 21. At lunch today I found 4 psyduck, 4 magikarp, and a golduck! I also hatched a vulpix and growlithe, which are both really rare for me. The growlithe is amazing! 756 cp and great ivs. I guess I'll just have to hope that I eventually hatch enough to get the candy to evolve it.

I doubt yours is broken or something like that. The wordings are similar, have you googled what your trainer says? You probably just have lots of Mons with similar IVs. Like ALL of mine are teeny tiny.
Blanche is losing her shit over my Tentacruel. Maybe I should power it up.
Nice! She's gushing about my Rapidash. It's not very strong, 1243 CP. But according to Blanche, it's got 15/15/15 perfect IVs. My only Pokemon that does. I'll battle with it and see how it does. I doubt it would be mega stronger than my 1654 Flareon.
Candela keeps saying most of my Pokémon are so small she almost didn't see them lol. Almost all of mine simply amaze her (80-100%) with a few exceptions. All of my Vaporeons are strong (67-79%), and all of my Slowbros and Slowpokes may not do well in battle (0-50%). It was weird to me that every single slowbro and slowpoke got the same.

It told me my bellsprout sucked.
Whatever, Blanche!
LOL. My Bellsprout is pretty good, 80-100% IVs with good attack. But it's only 621 CP, about 80% on its curve. You bet your ass if I find a higher CP one, I'm evolving that one, even if it had worse IVs. I don't have the luxury of worrying about IVs. I don't have anywhere NEAR enough stardust to power up low CP, but high IV Pokemon. Newp.
Oh I'm supposed to do an update today so Blanche can snark on my pokemon?! I'm thinking no.
I made Level 19 this morning. I also googled the place where I'm going on vacation next week and apparently there's a TON of really good stuff. So maybe I'll try to level up in the next few days (I do have a magic egg sitting around), so I'm 20 by the time we get there. Or if not, I'm sure I'll level up with all the stuff going on in that area next week.
Good news - I hatched a Meowtow and a Voltorb, not my first of either, but now I"m only 1 away from evolving each. Neither are really common where I am, so that might take a while.
I am still smarting over losing the Nidoqueen (1224 CP) the other night in the wild. Move on, I know.
I battled and placed a pokemon at a gym again this morning, and thanks to your advice I immediately cashed out the Stardust & coin, because I know I won't last long there. Thanks again!!
Yay for gym defender bonuses leeba25! I would try to level up before you go. That was you can make your DH drive and catch stuff on the drive, and start catching as soon as you get there. Where are you going? Sorry about the Nidoqueen, that sucks I was REALLY salty about losing my first-ever Drowsee. But I saw another one just 3 days later, and I caught that one. So hopefully another Nidoqueen will show up for you soon.

Wild Pokemon almost always have lower IVs than ones from eggs. And certain species often have particularly low IVs, maybe Slowpoke is one of them? I know the starter Mons (Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander) have almost universally low IVs caught in the wild. Everyone I read about who's working towards their final evolutions of those is praying to get one from a 2k egg, because their wild caught IVs are always bad.
I went to NYC for a day last week (for work) and caught a shitton of pokemon. It was absolutely nuts. I'm jealous of people who are in areas like that regularly!
IDK how to attach pictures from my iPhone if I"m not on the app. (I just use the browser.) But my sons (9 and 5) were amazed how many pokestops and gyms there were. I ate lunch in Rockefeller Plaza, and was bombarded by pokemon the whole time from all the pokestops with lures. So nuts.

What is a Meowtow? Is that a legendary Pokemon? I didn't think it really existed.

LOL I am a dumbass. I meant Meowth.
I had a convo with my 9yo the other day (he's huge into pokemon since he was 5) about this new guy I caught. I insisted that I got a light greyish guy who was holding a hammer but wasn't Machop. Looked like a human but holding a hammer. I actually was referring to Cubone, who looks more like a Triceratops head on a dog's body, not a human, but at least he's holding a hammer-like thing (it's a bone). My son couldn't stop laughing, he was like "have you not been paying attention for 5 years?" IDK, I guess I got them confused.

I obsessively check IVs. I don't recommend it, because it is hard to make myself evolve the crappier but higher level ones and I don't have the stardust to power up the others.
I've noticed that wild nidorans have pretty consistently crappy IVs. My sample size might not be big enough, but eevees and growlithes seem to have more consistently good IVs.
I hatched an Ekans today. Not awful, I already have some, as well as an Arbok, but it's much better than another f'ing Staryu. lol
Ekans is like Pidgey here! I rarely see Staryu! #regional
I see Ekans and Staryu occasionally. Not common, but not rare either. I just evolved my first Arbok and Starmie last week, I'd been saving candies since day 1.
As far as we can tell, no, size doesn't matter :-P LOL.
I just saw this...of course we found a way to make Pokemon naughty. lol
I think we established this with spiky vagina (Cloyster) and wobble penisface (Drowsee). I remember the latter was miso, I forget who came up with the former.
