How are you finding it?

Who’s your buddy?

Are you managing to do all the wee tasks everyday?

I think it's great, currently alternating between gible, lucario and machamp, being most tasks done for them just running out of berries very quickly

Looking forward to getting to ultra and getting the upgrade on the fighters

What about you?

I’ve got Tangela as my buddy! I’ve only ever seen one in the wild so I’ve never been able to evolve, so I’m grinding with him at the moment. He’s bloody cute! Waddles around, is like a proper toddler chasing you

I haven’t bothered. I hear the reward for having a best buddy is an extra 100CP on that Pokémon.

I can never get round to doing all the tasks. Do you get anything extra for completing them consecutively?

I’ve got Salamence as my buddy currently

"I haven’t bothered. I hear the reward for having a best buddy is an extra 100CP on that Pokémon. "

The reward is supposed to be the equivalent of a five level boost, so my machamp and lucario will be equivalent to level 45 pokemon. For now I'm walking gible for candy

There are different answers on Reddit. Some say lvl41 some say lvl45. Either way it’s only a temporary CP boost sadly.

Currently Swablu for me, but only because I've nearly evolved him.

I like the idea of the buddy more than the reality just now - I find it too time consuming to do all the extra things I need to do to make it worthwhile.

I’m near two big uni towns. I’m in a local group chat with hundreds of people, so we all get together for raids and stuff!

I got a shiny swablu and another shiny shellder. Got my first shiny shellder on Tuesday this week

We did community day, 9 shiny for me but nothing with good IV.

As for buddies, I'm currently walking a Panpour which was traded from a friend visiting from America at Christmas so I can get the candy to evolve it, just finished walking a Pansage to get the 50 candy on Friday after a friend kindly brought one back from his holiday in Japan.
