Who is your walking buddy?

I can't decide what to go after... figured I'd see what you guys were working on.

With the current meta game: Snorlax or Chansey. Mine is currently Snorlax.

Chansey... more rare for me than Snorlax... Speaking of Snorlax, I haven't seen one for like a whole week. Must have all gone to Japan for the event.

Chansey.

Chansey was the first rare mon to flee from me when I started playing, I took that very personal and almost lost a couple friends for making them pull over so I could catch a Chansey (Kidding. :P)
I started gen2 with over 500 chansey candies but now this hatred is growing inside again for her and I kinda want to boycott blissey as I did with vaporeon..
Idk.. I have one bliss i powered to max at 2939 but honestly I don't even like using her.. I'm on instinct so its not like I'm holding a gym, now I'm just the asshole making everyone enjoy the game less.... lol. I think I'm gonna go with snorlax

This is a fault in game design, not your fault. Niantic could just release an update, and there would be only one blissey per gym.
It is the players job to stress the system until it changes for the better. It is not the players job to hold themselves back to simulate a working system.

[p.s.: I am walking chansey too]

But what if we don't have the type for the slot? We just walk away? Not good for me. Especially I don't belong to the dominant team.

You will not be able to put a pokemon into this gym. I doubt you do not have 10 different pokemon. So you most likely put a sub-optimal pokemon (Arcanine, Flareon, Steelix, Cloyster, Tentacruel, Poliwrath) into this gym. So everybody is forced to have some of these too.

This is the desired effect.

Awesome idea but more Cons than Pros. I really wish we have a better gym mechanic. CP = King and Tap and Swipe are trash.

Used to be Lapras for a while before the nerf. Now it's Larvitar.

Machamp, I need a lvl 30 counter to Blissey and Snorlax.

After I'm finished with him, I'll switch to Snorlax until I can max 2 Snorlaxes. And then I'll walk Blissey.

Good luck. Only one in three movesets is useable. You could easily walk 1000 kms.

I already have a Machamp with a good moveset, I'm walking just to power him up. But you are right, you shouldn't walk Machop to evolve since that could screw you over if you don't end up with a useable moveset.

Ok, good for you. So i agree, it makes sense to walk machop.

Chansey. I live in a water/grass biome and rarely see her.

Currently walking the one and only Dratini I have ever hatched (never seen one in the wild).

Swapped out my Snorlax to buddy a Chancey. She and I have only been walking together for 73km so far.

Larvitar, 64 candies at the moment and only found one in the wild (luckily he has 89%IV), after I get to 125 I will switch to the only Mareep I have too. Already have a maxed out Blissey and 2 Snorlax so I want to get the difficult gen2 mon for the dex and to use them on offense.

Chansey now but will change to Larvitar after I get my Blissey over 2800.

Itching to start larvitar as I caught a wild 96/98 IV one... but it's only level 7.

Level doesn't matter if you get a good moveset imo it will still be worth it to power it up.

Right now, it's Kabuto. I'm 25 km away from Kabutops, the only Gen 1 that I can still walk to. Then there's stil need Porygon and Hitmonlee to get for Gen 1.

Not sure, what's next. I only have one Chansey and I keep a living Dex so I need to catch or hatch another or catch a Blissey to get a Blissey. Might start walking her anyway to get ahead.

I also have a high CP 96% Mareep and 48 Mareep candies. Might start walking one of my three Mareep.

Right now I'm with Larvitar. Will probably walk him til evolution (hopefully not just with buddy candy!) then it'll be onto the one Mareep I found. If it weren't them it'd be Blissey or Snorlax. They're the only 4 I would consider right now, and probably will be for the foreseeable. Maybe Dratini if I really want to power up my Dragons, and their hatch rate drops again.
