I meant it to be an either/or, but the way it ended up... I felt like Bob Ross because that was a happy little accident.

Everyone else still playing? I am. Because it takes so much fucking xp to level up now, the only things keeping me in the game are trying to find those elusive mons to complete my pokedex (hatching eggs mainly) and to find enough Dratini to finally evolve into a Dragonite. Well yesterday I stumbled across that last needed Dratini.. haven't evolved it yet though! And hatched a Snorlax with 30 candies yesterday too!

Same.
I finally evolved some critters. Got one of those Magicarp Graydos water snake things now so I can actually fight at a gym and be mostly successful.
Pidgey farmed my way to Level 24. Caught a handful of Snorlaxitives.
So far, the only critter that I've seen and not caught is a warturtle. I saw one on like day one and he ran away and I've never seen another.
Until a few days ago... It appeared, I threw some berries at it, used a yellow ball and hit it smack dab bullseye with a "perfect" or "nice" or whatever, curve ball. I literally don't know how much more perfect the set of conditions could have been... And he bolted.

Yea.. still playing. Almost to lvl 30.. I think when I get there I'll cut my play time down A TON. Just the goal of reaching it is enough.
As far as the Halloween thing.. they either they went overboard as fuck or they literally replaced pidgey with gastly, rattata with cubone, weedle with haunter and caterpie with meowth. Also seen a few drowzees down here which is super rare normally. And they spawn A TON. I've rarely seen the normal pokemon but I started yesterday with 6 gastly candies and now I have 403.
Love the 1/4 distance for candy. Gonna use it to get enough candies to evolve the 4 pokemon I don't have enough for so I can help fill out my pokedex. Also used it to get enough candies to max cp my dragonite and will later do the same for snorlax.
Oh yea.. finally got enough dratini to evolve into a dragonite the other day.
Currently my top CP mon:

Halfassing at level 25 right now. Walking the fuck out of my snorlax buddy to get candy. Probably should do the same with the dragonite worm...
So many ghastlies and cubones right now. I guess that's cool?

You really need to find a place with magikarps to catch... 6 candies a catch plus 2 for grinding. That's only 38 you need to catch.

Yea... started Tuesday and ends Nov 1.. which I think is Oct 31st evening USA time.
-Basically Gastly, Haunter, Gengar, Cubone, Marowak, Meowth are the new Pidgeys and Ratattas and Weedles and Caterpies.
-Get 2x the candy for catches, transfers, and hatches.
-Buddies take 1/4 requirement to earn a candy. i.e. walk 1.25 km for a Snorlax candy instead of 5 km. Good way to earn candies to evolve pokemon you need to evolve to fill out your dex or load up on candies to power up your pokemon.

The ability of Pokémon GO to make players open their (digital) wallets and spend big on in-app purchases remains strong nearly four months after launch—and it doesn’t even require new content. According to our Store Intelligence estimates, the game’s limited-time Halloween event for players, which ends today, increased IAP revenue approximately 133% worldwide, or 2.3X, in its first five days. The game earned approximately $23.3 million worldwide between October 25 and 29, up from approximately $10 million between October 18 and 22.

It has been an incredible experience since we launched Pokémon GO a few short months ago in July. We are passionate about creating experiences that encourage exploration and promote exercise. We are humbled that hundreds of millions of you around the world have joined us on this journey. So we would like to say thank you - and what better way to say thank you than to celebrate our community.
So, starting November 23rd at 00:00 UTC and going through November 30th 00:00 UTC, we will double the amount of XP and Stardust you receive when completing in-game actions.

So after going to Charlotte for thanksgiving I think I've gotten as far as I can get without going to other parts of the world or getting some 10k eggs.
All I am missing is:
83 - Farfetch'd
107- Hitmonchan
113 - Chansey
115- Kangaskhan
122- Mr. Mime
Caught 3 Areodactyls this past weekend.

If you're ever in Raleigh, NC let me know. I'll tell you the Electabuzz nest location. I have probably caught over 50 them. My Lapras came from an egg.
If they ever give us trading I'll gladly give you one of mine.
