"Today was by far my luckiest day in Pokémon GO ever!"

#PokemonGO: I went out today, my usual walk the dogs around the block and get some walking distance routine. I enjoy playing the game, and I have four pokestops and a gym close to my house, so it's a pretty fun routine to walk around the block with my dogs and just get some egg distance done. Anyway, it was somewhat uneventful, I was stocking up on easy evolution Pokemon in case this double evolution xp rumour is true. I caught a Whismur, since I have a lot of candy for it, and lo and behold it was actually a Ditto! Dittos aren't too crazy to me anymore, I have eight, but it's still always cool to get one. That was where my luck began. I was about to head home, when I realised I still had a lot of energy and the dogs could still use a bit more of a walk. I took them up to another field where I used to walk them occasionally, since I hadn't been for a while and I knew it also had a gym and a pokestop. I got onto that field, took care of some of my dogs business, and when I looked back at my screen... A WILD GYARADOS WAS NEARBY! If that wasn't already insane enough, it was at the pokestop closest to me which happened to be the exact spot I would always take my dogs to have a run around! Bear in mind, I live in the hills, so this guy had spawned in the only decent stretch of water for kilometres around - a ten metre diameter pond. I put my dogs back on their leads and RAN to that pokestop as fast as I could! The big fella popped up on my screen, and I was absolutely buzzing. He had less than 400 CP, but I didn't care at all, a wild Gyarados is a wild Gyarados! I caught it and absolutely buzzing decided to take the dogs home. Just when I thought my luck was up, on the street near my house, I went to catch an Aron since I really like them. I thought to myself "wouldn't it be funny if on top of all this, I bagged a shiny Aron too?" As if on cue, I loaded into the Aron battle and he was shiny. I absolutely flipped. I caught him, and just before I reached my house, I hatched a 10km egg and got a Larvitar, something I'm always very happy to have for its candies.TL;DR In about one hour, I managed to find a Ditto, catch a wild Gyarados, a shiny Aron, and hatch one of my favourite 10km Pokemon, Larvitar. What a good walk! via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/2mXsk85
