I have found some rare looking Pokémon through the radar, including Dragonair, Eevee, Aerodactyl (and they all vanished the moment I took a glance upom them).

Funny that I found Dodrio and Pinsir (have like 11 of it already, still crappy IVs and movesets) more frequently compared to how I found both Weedle and Pidgey.

I am quite heartbroken atm.

Mawa September 12th, 2016 7:02 PM

In my little place where there isn't anything.... I couldn't find the Vileplume :( I never got one.

Arjay September 13th, 2016 12:02 AM

Hoothoot and Quilava, in a dream I had the other day. :'(

theres an aerodactyl that's been hounding me for almost a month now. it's in edgewater nj. usually, i cant find/catch it because im driving. when i have some time and go to that area, s/he makes me walk around for 30 minutes by popping up on the nearby list and disappears.

Back on Sunday, three Pokemon that I saw on my list for nearby, but I have not got were the following:

Abra
Pikachu
Weepinbell

Well, since this post I've hatched a Seel, caught a Kadabra, and caught enough Mankeys to evolve one. I have recently seen an Onix and a Charizard on the radar, though. Of course they didn't spawn.

Adamw92 September 13th, 2016 11:40 AM

Onix has continued to hide from me and I'm getting really frustrated now. I can now add Dragonite to the list for me too

Arjay September 13th, 2016 12:25 PM

Never even seen an Onix on my nearby list. I'd love to find an Onix.

Maserati777 September 13th, 2016 5:14 PM

I saw Snorlax, Lickitung, Kabuto and Onix on my nearby radar today, unfortunately I wasn't in a position to look for them.


Onix was my first sighting of it.

ichiDad September 18th, 2016 7:29 AM

Snorlax, most notably. :(

However, I have managed to navigate toward and then capture several rare pokemon which appeared on my radar: Dragonair, Electrabuzz, Kabutops, Hitmonchan, Scyther.

dalekcaan1963 September 18th, 2016 9:07 AM

Magmar. I've got multiple Snorlaxes and Lapras's (one even spawned in my bedroom), I even have a Chansey I found in the wild, but no Magmars yet.

SonOfPickle September 18th, 2016 10:16 AM

All the rarest Pokemon appear nearby late at night for me, or just at bad times.

A Snorlax was nearby when I was about to go to sleep, so I didn't hunt it.
A Chansey was nearby right as my school bus departed, so I couldn't hunt that
A Scyther nest was nearby when my mom was driving on the highway, so I wasn't going to distract her and make her take an exit so I could catch it.

The Chansey was the worst for me... if it had appeared maybe 5 minutes earlier I would have been able to catch it (all the rare Pokemon spawn in the same area of my high school's campus, so I believe I know exactly where it was at.)

AliceBlaze September 18th, 2016 10:27 AM

One time, I checked the game while I was at home and I saw an Electabuzz on the radar. If I wasn't wearing my pajamas at the time, I would've gone out to look for it.

Another time, I saw a Wigglytuff on the radar so I went out to find it, but it disappeared shortly after I left the house.

Maserati777 September 19th, 2016 2:26 PM

I think I saw my 3rd or 4th Snorlax today. No idea where it was though. Walked around until it disappeared forever. If I knew which direction it was maybe I'd get a Snorlax.

tjumper78 September 20th, 2016 1:17 PM

at work earlier today, i opened my phone and saw a dragonite on the nearby list. i screamed "oh sh*t, a gradonite nearby!" (yes, i actually said gradonite out of excitement). my co-workers and i started running out but it disappeared as soon as we got outside. =O

Maserati777 September 20th, 2016 3:50 PM

Today I saw an Omanyte and a Kabuto on there.

Poké Bean September 22nd, 2016 11:42 AM

Quite a few but the ones that have disappointed the most in not appearing to catch are Rhyhorn, Porygon and Mankey. I still don't have any Fighting-types!

stormivy September 24th, 2016 9:06 PM

Lapras, Arcanine, Electrobuzz and Dratini.

Brendino September 24th, 2016 9:19 PM

I've seen Muk on my radar two or three times now, but I've still never seen it (or even Grimer) actually pop up.

About 2 weeks ago I saw a Nidoking show up in the radar near work, and I was actually able to track it down, only for the game to give me an error when I tried to click on it. I was a bit salty about it at the time, but I've saved up enough candies to evolve my Nidorino now, so I don't feel as bad.

Arjay September 25th, 2016 11:57 AM

On the way to work today, a Wigglytuff popped up on my nearby list. Never found it though and I had to abandon it to get to work on time. Must reassess my priorities.

Kotone September 25th, 2016 2:56 PM

there was a scyther on my radar. no idea where he was though. today my boyfriend hatched one..grr..

Sheep September 29th, 2016 2:43 PM

Saw Vulpix again today. Yet it didn't show up?!! I mean. Why I'm lv. 21 and still no Vulpix. -cry-

Maserati777 September 29th, 2016 4:26 PM

I saw my first Gengar on the nearby map. Unfortunately I was on the interstate so it wasn't near the road, it was probably in one of the towns we passed.


I'm pretty close to evolving Haunter though.

ichiDad October 10th, 2016 2:01 PM

"Sightings" would be vastly improved if it included the compass direction of the sighting. As it is, I can only randomly walk in some direction, quickly! If something disappears off the Sightings, I know I am going in the wrong direction, or it is already gone. But that is about it. Very frustrating! Rarely, I guess right, or else double back fast enough to find it.

"Growlithe NE" would be a fantastic improvement! After all, if you glimpsed some pokemon, wouldn't you know the direction?
