Any Pokemon you're surprised you don't have?

[TheSeattle206]

Like if you're a high level and you haven't seen or caught a pretty common Pokemon.

For me, I'm level 21 and I have yet to catch Shellder, despite the fact that he's been on my nearby plenty of times.

Level 19, still no butterfree... Catterpies are moderately rare around here XD

Also still 0 eeveelutions - I've been one eevee off for way, way too long.

 

[Dacevid]

Well, I'm not sure if these pokemon are rare or common, but I've never seen Sandshrew (or Sandslash).
I am also missing a Mankey, but have a Primeape.

Wow!

It's so interesting how much different certain regions can be. We are overrun by Caterpies where I am.

I suppose based on the rarity, I'm surprised I don't have a Golem yet. Geodude's are supposed to be really common (but again, depends on region, too...) and can even be hatched in 2km eggs, I think, right?

Yet I've only ever caught three Geodudes around here. So, Golem for me.

Funny you should say that, I've only ever seen two geodudes, and one got away from me =P I'd like to hatch one, but I've only hatched four 2K eggs - I mostly seem to get 5Ks

Never seen a Chamander or Cubone, both of which I'm told are relatively common in a lot of areas, never seen a Growlithe and perhaps most strangely, never seen a Doduo! Not sure if it's just my area being so sparse or if I'm just getting unlucky but I'd really love to encounter any of these Pokémon, they're a really cool bunch haha.

 

[CoalCraft]

I've never seen a doduo or growlithe either, and growlithe's one of my faves :/

Somewhat irritatingly, the only starter I've seen in the wild has been squirtle, which is the one I accidentally picked (I would have gone for charmander but the server was lagging badly and I was tapping at random). I've seen shadows of charmander, but never the real deal.

I've never seen a wild Dodou, have only hatched them. No idea where they would normally be...

I've heard that a lot of people find them as commonly as Spearow, it seems like the game just chooses one of the two (or from a few others as I've heard similar cases with Nidoran, Drowzee, Eevee, etc) and that's the one you find most commonly? But not at all sure, I just know I want one!

 

[TheSeattle206]

It's funny, there's a Doduo spawn at a local park about 10 minutes away from my house. And I've caught a Growlithe around the same area.

 

[Pepperton]

Been playing since the first day of its release, I'm about 4000 exp from level 23, and I still haven't caught a Growlithe, but I've had an Arcanine since like Day 5. Got lucky when someout shouted there was one across the street in a mall. I've actually seen a Growlithe on screen when I was eating at a Greek place, but of course I had no Pokeballs, and no Pokestops were nearby.

 

[Phoenixstarz]

Still haven't got a Raichu yet, in the first week I got to 41 Pikachu candy but been stuck on that for 3 weeks now

Almost lv. 20 and still never encountered Charmander or Clefairy. aaaagh why. ; ; I know there are areas here where Clefairy's a bit more common but idk I've only seen the shadow once or twice but it never showed up. Wonder when I'll actually spot a Charmander.

 

[merlintocs]

I chose Charmander as my starter, and I've never seen another one. I've hatched one Geodude and have never seen another. I've also never seen a Pikachu, Mankey, Drowzee, or Machop.

 

[mikey]

I work in NYC and still have yet to see a Koffing, which I find strange lol.

 

[Squirrel]

Funny to see how many people are struggling with Charmander haha. I feel like I'm finding Squirtle all over the place and Bulbasaur are also pretty common to hear about on this forum but only one person from memory has spoken about finding a lot of Charmander and that's because she has a nest near her. Think they're a lot rarer than the other starters or just need a very specific biome?

Clefairy usually spawn by the truck load in shopping centres/town centres - what kind of area are you looking in?

 

[Hiatus]

I've hatched a few 10km eggs, but none wound up to be an Aerodactyl (which I believe is the only way right now to get a hold of the Pokemon). I'm looking forward to hatching one!

I've received exactly one 10km egg in over a month of playing. No Aerodactyl.

 

[VisualJae]

Aerodactyl.

I've been to our local mall, the ferry area, tourist parts of the city, and other populated areas in general but no go. You're right about that though, whenever Clefairy spawned it was always around malls and other shopping centers. Guess I'm gonna have to go back and see if I get lucky. D:
