ok i forgot to post this but last Friday before i left my bday weekend i caught a Mew! w00t w00t!!
quick update before i go to lunch: u see the game introduced a new feature that includes field research (tasks and challenges) such as hatching a 10k egg or make 3 excellent throws in a row. it was like one of the second to last challenge set of challenges was to evolve a Magikarp into a Gyarados (u need 400 candies!) and then another set of challenge. well i completed it last Friday eve and here's the exciting stuff that happened!
first - it's only in AR mode for the catch. and u can only use the regular red pokeball, no berries to help.
the Mew is nearly invisible! can u see it?
it appears when u hit it with a ball and for a split second as it escapes.
gotcha! after like 9 tries and pretty good throws!
reward!
registered!
my Mew and it's stats
appraisal: it's AMAZE!
u get 3 candies for catching it, no berries/pinapp berries allowed but u also get 20 extra candies for completing/beating the research missions. i was gonna walk w/ it to get more candies but it's 20k for 1 candy and that's like 4 times the walking of most other Pokemons. um no - i need more Beldum candy.
