If London Was Deserted…
Ever wondered what a deserted London might look like? Like 28 Days but with everyone gone? This could be what it looks like…… and it’s damned unnerving.

Abra
If you have played the original Pokemon games, you’ll know Abra was a headache to catch, using Teleport to escape at its first opportunity. The only way to stop this was to either catch him on your first go, or use a skill that would stop him using that move – such as one that induces sleep.
In GO, he still makes an appearance, but will escape at his first opportunity. I managed to hatch one out of an egg while I was at home:
And this morning, at Victoria Rail Station, managed to find (and catch) a wild one. A lot weaker than the one out of the egg, but still :D
My technique was to use a Great Ball (have picked up a ton of those recently) and curveball him. Managed to get a curveball + nice bonus this way.
Tower of London
The Tower of London. A great tourist attraction. Great history…. and a bloody Magikarp nest.
Still can’t complain, picked up a couple of Dratinis here (not enough to call it a Dratini nest) and also picked up the infamous Pikachu. Pikachu is the only Pokemon in the game that I have encountered so far that actually uses a voice rather than computer-generated screeches and squeals for its signature call.

This explains why Parson Street was closed just after Tenterden Grove on my way into work this morning.
