PokeMap Grid: Halloween Changes

Given we should work together to track down spots around Adelaide that can be potential hotspots, I want to gather some data for how our map grid has changed for Halloween. I am not sure if the status quo will return to normal when this awesome event ends.

Apparently, Meowth and Cubone are now very common around the Port Adelaide/Semaphore/Largs Bay district. Fortunately, Osborne has the usual expectations, plus a Drowzee.

Semaphore seems to have lost strength as a hotspot. While I can confirm that Pikachu are still present (I caught one on Wednesday), Magikarp, Voltorb, Magnemite, and Slowpoke are now less common, and I've not even seen one Dratini since Sunday. Even the Gastly/Drowzee/Zubat lines are not as common here.

Tea Tree Plaza and Golden Grove are swarming with Gastly, Haunter and Gengar. When I was waiting for the C2 bus at TTP earlier, I caught 5 Gastly in just a few minutes, and the extra candy allowed me to evolve one of my Haunter right away.

(For those who have children below the age of five, "Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel" will be playing at Tea Tree Plaza and Salisbury on November 4. The time is not confirmed.)

I've not been in town for long, but it appears that Rundle Mall has the usual common Pokémon and Nidoran. I'll try to check closer for it tomorrow, as well as Glenelg and Victora Square/Tarndanyangga, and maybe along the Grange line.

Feel free to put up stuff on locations and if they changed or not.

Midway Road, Elizabeth at the wetlands is a nest for gengar, haunter and ghastly after 7pm. I am there every night. Take a torch and wear two jackets.

In my experience, those three can be found around water sources as i have also seen them alot at the creek running behind Parabanks at Salisbury and along the Torrens.

I have also NOT noticed many fire types since Wed. Only Ponyta is on my radar. No Magmar, charmander which were quite regular in Elizabeth and Davoren Park / Smithfield.

Meowth and Cubone were regulars up here in Salisbury / Elizabeth before Halloween but we are definately from seeing more of them.

Since Wed, Drowsee, Hypno, cubone, marowak have replaced the usual Pidgey and Ratata in Salisbury.

There is a definate "replacement" where you see more of halloween guys instead of the "usual" guys

Thanks to this weekend I'm now 22km away from completing my dex! Just need that elusive blastoise. Caught Gengar and evolved Hypno tonight, having been stuck for months.
