Went to the pharmacy during lunch break. A Lapras showed up at a Pokestop at a rails to trails sign. Hiked over there and caught the Lapras and 2 Seels. The Lapras is 1247 CP and is "decent / get the job done", but at least it is on the dex!

I saw some sort of pufferfish thing on my radar last night, but it was like 10:30pm and it was across the street and I didn't want to walk out in the dark to get it. So I missed that one for now.

Probably a qwilfish. I have only seen and caught one. They look cool, but don't evolve into anything.
I was on a site visit in Napa for work today. I caught no fewer than NINE new (to me) pokemon! Furret, Mantine, Weezing, Remoraid, Totodile, Misdreavus, Seel, Qwilfish, and Octillery! That brings my total 'dex count up to 157. Exciting day!!
Of course, then my battery died right as I made room on a kinda hard-to-access Gym that likely would have held for a few weeks. Someone got a free slot due to my efforts.
I've used him a couple times when I was out of vaporeons and healing items, but...not really. Slowbro has a similar niche, and while he was nerfed, is still way better

Agree and I'm pretty sure golduck was also nerfed with the rebalance patch.
My last three 10km eggs had two manta rays which is a shame because I also caught some through the event now. But the other was that electric sheep, so that's cool.
Even if these events don't give me rare Pokémon I still need (looking at you, lapras), I just like that they break up the monotony of catching the same 4 Pokémon over and over day after day.
Caught a Squirtle in my house last night and FINALLY got my Blastoise... And he has Hydro Pump. Unfortunately he's only 1200 CP so I'll need a billion more to get him useful.
I still haven't seen a Squirtle. I'm getting very frustrated. I'm saving Pinap berries (I'm on my last 5) and all I need is 3 Squirtles with berries and I'm done. And I'm pretty sure I've seen every water type in the game now except Squirtle in this event.
Well, not Lapras, but I already have one of those so meh.
I caught a Jumpluff at lunch. I was only 20 candy away from evolving one anyway, but still cool. I have plenty of Totodile candies. Almost enough to evolve him twice. The problem is the best one I have found is 501 CP and "decent". All of the other ones have been ~250CP and "not great in battle".
Ah, so probably eggs picked up going forward will have the correct date. The game probably always tracked the location so that a North American egg didn't hatch a Mr. Mime sorta thing.
Did they buff pinap berries in a recent patch? I'm sure it gave you a total of 5 candies for the capture at first, now it's 6. Maybe I'm remembering wrong.

It always gave you double the normal candies but the displayed text was wrong.

Egg contents are fixed when you get the egg, so they wouldn't need to track the location for that (also regionals could only be hatched for a short period at launch)
Dunno about water pokemon, but just went out walking near the beachfront and caught 2 larvitars and 2 pikachus. Few more magikarp than normal but otherwise seemed fairly standard.
Got my second Gyrados and it's a good one! Bite/Hydro pump. Not very good IV (I think it was like 67-80 or something like that) but a good skillset. My other one is Bite/Dragon Breath which isn't very helpful on a majority of the gym Pokemon.
I spun my 7th day pokestop and received a sun stone. I evolved a Sunflora, which looks like something from Plants Vs Zombies.
I recently evolved a Crobat. I would have had one sooner, but I pissed away my candies evolving Golbats for XP prior to the Gen 2 release. Are there any candies I should be hording for future generations?

According to this the short answer is Magnemite, Lickitung, Ryhorn, Tangela, Electabuzz, Magmar, Porygon, Togepi, Aipom, Yanma, Murkrow, Misdreavus, Gilgar, Sneasel and Swinub, but since all of those hit in Generation 4 (we're in Generation 2) you've got time.

I'm also about out of water pokes to catch
This is my only chance to get a blastoise though =(

Not sure this will help you polish off your Blastoise, sorry.
Also the starters kind of suck, so they're not really worth leveling.
8 Ultra Balls later, I got 3 candy towards my blastoise!
Out of Pinap Berries.
1010 CP
This event is great
would like some squirtles though
Have faith. Your time will come.
I haven't seen anything shiny yet.
Mine are showing correct location but are all showing they were acquired May 15, 2016 ...which is incorrect.
edit: The game wasn't even fully released at that point.

I'm over here excited I might get to evolve my omanyte and seel.

There's a bunch of new babies to hit too but I wouldn't worry about those.
Interestingly enough after that dogpile the only gen to introduce a new evolution is 6 with a single new Eevee.
