can anyone download the buddy Pokemon update? The website says it as released on the 10th, but my app won't update.
Pokémon Go Anyone?

My wife has it. I don't.
I am on 0.35.0 version (?) Not sure what that means. How do you know whether or not you have the update?

Just checked and 0.35.0 is the latest version and in the Google Play store the latest update does not include anything buddy system related.
@Zuljin, what makes you think your wife has it?

0.35.0 still as well, bummer I'd really like the extra candy a buddy would produce.
The pokemon website doesn't have it. Just make sure you downloaded it from a reputable apk hosting site otherwise it could be a hacked version with malware installed.
I will wait for it to be on google play myself.

Finally! Flareon matches team Valor pretty well.
Valor drools! Mystic rules!
I am rubber, you are glue.
It bounces off of me, and sticks to you!
Heard there was a Snorlax in town last night, so I got the wife to ride along while I went looking around. Figured it was too late to get him, but as we rode behind the buildings where he was reported, my 2k egg popped up. I had her click it open and I got....
A Wheedle!
She thought it was cool looking, but I told her it was excessively common and the 2k eggs don't give you anything but crap. And my second 2k egg popped and she clicked on it and out popped....
A Pikachu!
Level 409 IIRC. My first one at level 20 from a 2k egg.
Put that sucker on my buddy list to see what happens. Looks like a low k rate so it should get a good amount of candy. My oldest put her Squirtle on as her buddy.

Base your buddy on how close you are to evolving them. I had 24 candies of squirtle, it takes 25, so I walked him for that one candy. Now I switched to another one, rinse and repeat.

I started with Charmander and then realized I didn't have one with good IVs or a good CP level so I switched to an awesome Kadabra I have but am nowhere close to evolving. I promptly hatched a 2k egg and got an awesome Charmander, so I have a choice to make once I find the next candy. I would have been on the Pikachu bandwagon if I had a good one. I heard there is a cool easter egg with it and with only 1k per candy, that will be a Raichu very soon.
This is my plan. I didn't have time to look through all my pokemons, so I just threw in Pikachu since the k rate was so low. When I get time i'll be switching between a few while driving VERY slowly through some back roads!

I've realized that there is no reason to evolve the first step if you can't do the second one at the same time. By the time you get 100 candies to evolve your wartortle, you will probably have found a better squirtle, likely one that has a higher CP than the wartortle even.
Only speaking from personal experience of course. Stupid Haunter....

This is very true depending on what you're after. If you are purely trying to level up then it wouldn't hurt to do it "my way" because of the XP gain when evolving.
However, if you're trying to get high CP Pokemon then you're absolutely correct! Although, the gaps between levels in your low-mid 20s doesn't really make much of a difference waiting or not I imagine.
Level 20! I got Ultra Balls!
That's what he/she said!
Got a message from the girl at work to go out taking over all the gyms in town again last night, but I was deep into replacing capactiors on my tv (failed to fix it
)I do plan to go out again and get some k on my buddy. I tried that two days ago, but accidentally turned my phone off before I started driving slowly back home, so the app didn't register any mileage. D'oh!
I've only seen 1 squirtle, and that was one of the first pokemons that popped up after installing the app. I haven't seen one since. Even living in Michigan with 11,000 lakes, we don't live right close to any water. I tried driving down by the airport, which is right next to a large pond, but nothing popped up. I wonder if they don't put items near airports for safety reasons.

Did you get anything good in Chicago? I've been doing morning runs along lakeshore and have been getting 6-8 magikarp plus others each day. Finally got enough to evolve a Gyrados :rockin:

How does the evolution work because most of the magikarp are garbage as far as CP is concerned. What were the pre-evolution and post-evolution specs?
Yes, MOST Magikarp are junk, but you only need them for candies, so you just wait until you have a GOOD Magikarp and hold onto it until you have enough candies to evolve.
THat's what I'm doing on my second Gyarados.
