Spearow are between uncommon and rare for me, but I rarely ever find bellsprout and oddish. And I've found a machop nest before, interestingly by an exercise focused shop xD

 

 

Wow, you really don't find anything else? ;_; I at least find sandshrew and paras in my neighborhood. And sometimes a random thing like a dratini, poliwrath, and staryu will appear, though those only happened once.

I have enough candy now to bring up 2 more Victreebells and one other Vileplume, first Victreebell I created was just poison moves... wanted grass to take out some Vaporeons from Gyms, now I'm just wielding my 2.5k Snorlax to do the job or my 2.2k Gyarados with Bite.

Vulpix/Growlith/sandshrew/Magnemite/voltorb are all almost non existant here, lucky to see one per 2 weeks and no way to find where they might be if they're on the nearby.

As of 1 hour ago Fast Poke Map have stated that the server side algorithm has been changed again to prevent tracking map sites... such a shame because with those tools I had direction and a time suggestion to reach certain area's in my town, made it into a fun game and good exercise tool... now it would be back to just aimlessly walking up and down streets and back alleys. Terrible shite from Niantic.

Oh, that's cool! I wish I could get Vileplume and Victreebell, but they're so rare here, I only have gloom and weepinbell. I can relate to pokemon just getting the wrong moves. I got an Exeggutor, hoping it had grass moves to fight water types, but it was a pure psychic type, so now as great as I hoped. Then there was a Raichu, which had the best stats, but it got brick break for its strong attack, so it's kind of useless to me as a water fighter. I wish they wouldn't give such weird moves to pokemon, or have TMs later on or something.

I'm starting to get a growing suspicion that Niantic has nests set up in certain areas, and they change them from time to time. There's a park I visit sometimes for catching and restocking, and one week I was catching tentacool, and then a week or 2 later, it was shellder. A library I used to stop by was a hitmonlee nest, but was changed to a krabby nest. A different park I visit frequent for stops suddenly started spawning magnemite, which never occurred before. I'm not sure if this happens to you.

Also, it was pretty lame that they took away the trackers from the early Go days. Now it's hard to figure out where pokemon you see nearby are even located. It's stressful when something cool shows up, and you have no idea how to find it, only for it to then disappear.
