I can't ignore an Eevee, but they are useful as well. I'm a crazy cat lady so all the cat types call to me, Glameow, Sprigatito, Skitty. Less keen on Meowth.

Meowth gives bonus dust. I used to pass them up but I grab every one I see now. Even have the shiny derpy blue Persian in my gym lineup because why not?

Wut dat Meowth do?

Gives 500 dust every catch. …Same with paras.

I had no idea!

https://pokemongohub.net/post/guide/pokemon-that-give-extra-stardust-on-catch/

Just saw audino gives over 2000. Might be worth if they weren’t so stupidly hard to catch

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have a 4* Persian from a 7k egg. It's blue, not shiny. Still won't get rid of it, even though I doubt I'll use it .

Alolan Persian

The alolan Meowth looks elegant. The Alolan Persian looks more true to a Persian cat - like it's favorite activity is running face-first into walls

Eevee and Sprigatito for me. Litten, Skitty and Glameow are 50/50. I would be the fiercest pokecat person with an army of adorableness. And of course I catch any wild eeveeloutions, too.

I always pinap them. Sitting on several thousand candies. Still can't trade 100 for 1 xl candy to only power up 1 level. I'm hoarding them until the next event that guarantees an xl candy for trading.

I always catch every Skitty I see hoping one will be shiny. When I was a kid playing Emerald I would catch a male and female Skitty and breed a giant army of Skitty so I always feel like I’m paying homage to my 7 year old self.

Same. I never know when I’m gonna get a good one so I berry them up too

Same for me with eevee

same here . Gonna catch em all da kitties

Was about to say Eevee too

Same here! Crazy cat lady, CAN’T pass them up lol

Eevee.. got over 2000 candies and no shiny. Only shiny I got are event ones that can’t evolve. *sigh*

Keep trying! I found one at my house a while ago. I was cleaning the gutters, when I stepped back down from the ladder I thought I'd open up Pogo while I rehydrate. Found a shiny!

If we find out you are playing while on the ladder you are in big trouble. We will call the North Pole and tell Santa.

Haha, no I'd definitely climbed down. Don't call Santa, I've been good I swear.

I just found one today! Not sure if I'll keep it or evolve it...

I got one two days ago. I buddied it to evolve as Sylveon but I'm already really attached to it in its eevee form so now I'm not sure.

Same but only 1100 candies. 677 encounters so far.

Don't give up, it took me 1500 eevees, before one random day, I got a wild shiny eevee!

Don’t give up and eventually you will have all the shiny eevees plus their shiny evolutions (like i do)

I recently got a shiny eevee, so immediately put it as my buddy to walk 10km and turn it into espeon. Hit 10km and it didn't log because I evolved it too quickly... And now I have a shiny volteon which just looks like an ill volteon lol

i just got a shiny eevee from a super old research challenge thing😭 i saw a thread talking about how it was 4 years old or so and the thread was 2 years old💀💀💀

All are unceremoniously and mechanically harvested for stardust. 96% are then sacrificed to the professor. 3% are traded on the slave market. 1% are kept as gladiators.

Brutal. But well summarized

I don't understand Do people see Pokémon and just... Not catch them? How do you even progress without that

Lotad. Lotad. I just want that shiny strawberry lotad. Even though i dont need it.

There’s a shiny (strawberry???) Lotad?! Oooh I want it…

Its like, it has red instead of blue but the green leaf stays green and it then looks like a strawberry its cute ngl

I wish it were a brighter red for the strawberry vibes ngl

I love it how it is 🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓🍓

Mareep. Just love that little sheep

Heyooo this is mine too.

I'm fairly new to pogo and know nothing about catching them all outside of this particular game but I love the little yellow dude mareep eventually evolves to. I seriously can't get over how silly he looks. I love him

Magikarp, I love them. I love where I live but I wish I lived where they'd spawn!

Same I love catching magikarps

Eevee. I don't really know why, but if an eevee spawns, it takes immediate priority over any other spawn. Maybe it's the fluff or the sounds, but it will always be my favorite pokemon.

furret. I name them after desserts.

Tangela and any of the bats. Tangela just looks like a happy ball of yarn and I like knitting.

Same! I knitted myself a bellsprout balaclava thingy for community day and got some really strange looks while out shiny hunting

Pics

Durant....because it's my last name. I feel like they were made for me. I have an entire army. It's my dream to find a shiny.

Kevin, is it you?

Shh...don't tell anyone else

This was underappreciated

Same I love bidoof so much omg wawawa!!!

I need a hundo so I can call it god. I have lost 3k bidoof candy now.

Wailmer, wimpod, swablu... any of the "needs 400 candy to evolve". If I ever got a perfect I'd want to evolve it, learn another move and power it up. So yeah. Aside from that mostly just the pokemon I find cute lol.

Darumaka. Need dancers to put in gyms.

Poliwag. If I could I'd have an army of Poliwhirl with me at all times.

Sableye. Still waiting for my shiny...

I have one, worth the wait. Hang in there!

Sudowoodo!!! They make me laugh. All that stomping around and looking chuffed.

the little pose and grin at the end of his move always cracks me up

Same! My kid crocheted a Sudowoodo for me. It’s hilarious and amazing!

Jazz hands!

I liked them so much until I realised how fast they eat up my good berries and balls. I still go for them despite that, I just love that they look like a sausage holding some broccoli

Shellos and dewpider. They're just funky little guys

Me too and the other little clam.

Eevee, I don't even transfer them I keep EVERY eevee I see, I don't even need them because I have every Eeveelution

You muddy have a million. I see at least 10 a day

Merrill. Nothing will beat a yellow Boi. Eevee as I realized I used the name trick far too soon in my GO career haha.

Charmander, Gastly, any of the croc pokemon, Eevee, Pikachu, and Skarmory.

oooh yes skarm i never pass up a skarm

Wimpods

I finally evolved one today

Nice I have like 3 or 4 golisopods so far, he's easily my favorite pokemon

I’m holding out for finding a shiny one omg. My life’s work will finally be over.

I’m weirdly obsessed with Doduo and Geodudes right now. For whatever reason I’m convinced that the next one is gonna be a hundo

I have a small handful of hundos, two of them are geodudes

lechonk. i’ve seen 1098 and caught 806 (on my main account), 2 shinies, 1 hundo (from an egg), and 3235 candies (after leveling the hundo to level 50)

It sorta just happened to me with Machop, I don’t need them anymore but I still often use a pinap berry when catching them

Bidoof is a need

Dunsparce, I love that derpy guy.

Gonna be all set when we get the extra long ones from Scarlet/Violet.

I usually have sound off but it comes through in my truck when using Bluetooth and I love his little call. I click on him for that alone

I always hear that song from caddyshack when I look at a bidoof.

Um, only all of them. I always need the dust.

Growlithe. I won’t explain.

GROWLITHE GROWLITHE GROWLITHE

No explanation necessary

Corphish. It's a cute pokemon.

ALL HAIL BIDOOF!

I just like Joltik. Cute little bugger!

All the pan monkeys. I love those lil guys.

Bounsweet for cuteness. Carbink for baby yoda vibes . Shroomish because his face has the same grimace my favorite cat used to sport.

Well, now that I've been told how valuable catch-and-release Meowth is...

Hunting for that shiny buneary for no reason except cuteness 🤣

I catch them for ditto

The ones that gives bonus stardust i guess

Oh and that little Phanpy 🙈

Sunkern. I am currently at 48 Sunflora, one shiny but no hundos yet

It's fun to unleash a team of high level sunflora when you're in a maxed out raid of 20 people.

Deerling honestly they're so beautiful as sawsbuck My brother usually caught Winter Deerling while I kept getting either the summer or autumn Deerling besides the spring one I'm more of a completionist when it comes to Deerling when my brother catches Deerling because he's interested in having them as a buddy Pokémon

Eevees, their candies are super useful and they’re so cute! I’m a sucker for cute fire Pokémon - Growlithe, Vulpix, and Slugma. Lastly, Gastly because I was obsessed with being a cool, dark, and mysterious Ghost Pokémon trainer when I was a kid 😆

Growlithe/Arcanine

Growlithe. It's my favorite

Audino 😂

Geodude is my guy.

My buddy is Doofus the Bidoof

Sudowoodo

Eevee and meowth! I can't resist them, especially eevee for the extra candies

Abra!!!! Only because Alakazam is my favorite Pokemon lol.

Ralts! I just can’t help it, they’re the cutest lil babies

Komala I'm obsessed with koalas (studied abroad in Australia and have a koala plushie named Charles that travels with me everywhere). I've named like half of them Charles in his honor.

I never catch it lol. Hardly have 100 candies

Yes! And it is Bidoof! So cute!!

Sewaddle

Purrlion Love them purple kitties, hoping for a shiny ✨

Snubbull. My fave Pokémon.

Ditto

Mine is indeed bidoof. Been looking for a shiny since 2017

Makuhito. I love that little guy.

Eevee, Lickitung, and especially Slowpoke. I adore that derpy lil face

Who doesn’t actually need Bidoof? A wild Bidoof is basically a wild Arceus You doof-us😂😂

I just redownloaded the app after not having it for years. I’m lost on all of the Pokémon. This is literally me with any of them that aren’t the original 152 haha

Snorlax and Eevee.

Eevee and vulpix for me, but I also catch squirtle for my mom. Never evolving them though, she doesn't care for the evolutions as much.

greavard…his pokédex entry is so sad sounds no, so i have to catch each one

Taurus. I can never pass one without catching it.

Mawile is my favorite. I have waaaaaaay too many of them. 😄

Numel.

Wooper and sandshrew. They’re little buddies :]

Absolutely friend shaped!

Serviper. I just need a perfect one idk why

I catch them too and I have no idea why! Not in line with the other Pokes I obsessively catch. Just smiley knife tail.

Sentret. I don’t even particularly like sentret over other mons, but he’s just a round little guy and I’m compelled to throw balls at him

Jigglypuff. I love those cuties so damn much!

I love paras

sooooo much dust

Eevee I have over 2k candies already and yet I always catch them

Currently on a shiny hunt for Bidoof and Mudkip! I've noticed more Mudkips spawning for me around my home recently!

Got my first shiny bidoof two days ago and I will continue to catch them until my next shiny bidoof.

Gastly. I love the Gastly line. I get physically excited whenever I see one spawn on my map.

Turtwig

Digletts. Those are my little guys!!

Gastly, just want a shiny for the mega…

Eevee.

Eevee, smoliv, and gastly. They’re all just so cute

The Hippos! They are just so cute and I love them. Have over 300 in my bag. Was able to get a shiny too!

Eevee or any starter

The only way I wouldn’t need a bidoof is if I already had the hundo, nundo, shundo, shNundo, 69cp, 420cp… and all the xl-xxl/xxs variants

Falinks

Eevee once an eeveelover, always an eeveelover

Venonat

Vulpix, eevee, growlithe, slowpoke, jigglypuff. I won’t miss a chance to catch something pink, orange, or cute. 

Fearow - for some reason always excites me when I see him on screen - 1,998 xl candies (14,066 regular) for the mon.

i try to catch everything, until i run out of balls

Eevee

heracross

Eevee always 😂

Charmander, my favorite starter. Plus excellent throws on it are easy so it’s a double win for me

Eevees and Slowpokes.

That yungoosez man. Got like 23,000 candies

Pikachu. I really want a hundo.

WOOLOO

There is something in me that needs to catch pidgeys.

Eevee. I’m at 14 hundos so my collection is well past complete. I guess I’m hooked on them.

This is me. Bidoof. Every time. Forever.

Polywags

Bidoof and Lillipup for me

Does Audino count? I don't really need one...

Psyduck, every time.

MAGIKARP

Bidoof is the way. Thanks to catching him I've found shiny ditto

Oddish in case of ditto

Lechonk. Bidoof was part of it but I recently got the shiny so I’m waiting for the shiny **LECHONK**, that elusive prick.

Shuckle!

sprig. i love sprig, i always catch even though i have a UL-maxed double-move meowscarada already. and psyduck. ETA: i always catch the high-dust mon like audino, meowth, trubbish - but that’s for the dust rather than sentimental value. i also catch eevee every time, and i do love eevee, but i’m still building evolutions so that isn’t purely sentimental either.

It’s not about the pokemon, it’s about the stardust

Growlithe have a thousand of them 😭. They're so cool

Oddish

Gastly and Eevee. I keep the ones that are 2 stars and above.

Eevee most of the time I've got over 2000 Eevee candy

Eevee, Lechonk and Sprigatito.

Gastly and the OG ghost gang 

Growlithe. I currently have a really nice Arcanine in both normal and Hisuian forms, so I truly don't need them. But I catch all of them anyway. Also have my heart stupidly set on obtaining a choice Ekans, Cutiefly, and Mudkip for evolution. Assorted others too that I keep catching and transferring because they don't meet criteria. Criteria being either maxed HP with decent or maxed defense and attack <5, a bulky 3*, a Hundo, or a shiny.

ALL HAIL LORD BIDOOF

Abra. I just like what I like I guess

You already know

Most of the time I just catch for stardust and the task. Other than that. I just go for candy and seeing if I can get a shiny 3-4 star.

Pidgey for me

Spheal. My handsome roundboi. My perfect orb. My delightul clapbeast.

Bidoof every time

It looks cuter when Marge is holding it

Feebas. I’ve always had a love for Milotic. I love the whole story of turning the ugliest fish into the most beautiful sea creature. Plus in ruby it was incredibly hard to catch and evolve this one. So when I see one in go I still feel rewarded, even tho they’re much easier to catch and evolve in this game.

Goomy. It will always be goomy.

Yes ! All of them ! lol

Blitzle!

Cutiefly! Those guys are so tiny and it’s funny to see a tiny fly guarding one of my local gyms. Hoping to snag a shiny, super cute!

Magikarp. I catch every one that I find. The first shiny I ever caught and I like to think that one day I’ll get a shundo. 😂
