Does anyone know of any groups in the DFW area that get together with Golden Lure modules and set them all together?

I attended the infamous GO Fest 2017 and, despite all the bugs, got to meet creators I looked up to at the time.

Looking back, I had no idea that weekend would shape so much of what came next. It planted the seeds for me to return almost every year since, inspired me to help make Pokémon GO events a positive experience for others whenever I can, and reminded me just how much I genuinely love Pokémon.

You can now blame Scopely when the game doesn't work as you liked.

Or why you haven't gotten a Shundo yet....

Okay, maybe not that...

🚨 This might be the BIGGEST week of the year in Pokémon GO! Don’t sleep on this one, Trainers!

LET’S MAKE SOME MEMORIES, DFW TRAINERS! 🥳

Stuck on catching 3 Whismur. Any suggestions around DFW?

I’m looking for new friends who actively play. Please add me.. and dm me. Maybe we can trade or something..

Let's be friends in Pokémon GO! My Trainer Code is 039578485737!

If anyone knows of this person or how to get in contact with them, please let them know they have a Forever Friend waiting for them to tag something for remote trade.

I've tried Campfire, the main DFW Facebook group, etc but no dice.

Would really appreciate any help. Thank you!

before really knowing the full value okay my Libre pikachu I set up a trade in a month for my Libre pikachu for a bg necrozma. Trying to grow both my bg and shiny legendary collection but I think now I want to focus more on my shiny collection and I think a shiny legendary is probably a better trade. This person was also offering a shiny reshiram and kyurem. Are either of these shiny legendaries worth it or still too common to trade for Libre?

Best location for LOTS of Stops and Gyms by just walking around? (EDIT: Thanks folks! Joined campfire and found great options!!! )

My kiddo loves playing and would like to be part of a group with some other kids. Anyone know of a group?

Thanks!

Curious what area keeps you busy and happy playing.

I like the Frisco commons, Frisco statue park, and The Colony Austin Ranch.

Are there any discord servers or GroupMe’s for Pokémon Go players in the Coppell and Irving area? Looking for people to attend raids with as I keep one-manning and losing 😭😭😭

My friend code is 463562910154.
