Well, I'm glad it's not my phone then, and I didn't even notice they stacked multiples of the same pokemon together. I wish they would at least seperate them, so you get a clearer picture on what is nearby you. The way you explained it, the current system Pokemon Go has is a mess. It's shocking I've been able to find certain rare pokemon that show up on my nearby list. At this rate, I've learned where all the spawn points are for pokemon, so I've been able to figure out where certain pokemon are hiding. Still frustrating though.

And I forgot to list Rhyhorn under my'uncommon' list. I find them sometimes when I'm going around town, enough to have one strong Rhydon on my team.

I've caught one and was lucky got a Hatch during the Halloween event so I'm not far off a Rhydon, but still... 1 in the wild in 3-4 months of play lol.

And yeah they had to stack the Sightings really, otherwise it just looked worse before since it would just be 9 Pidgeys :D at least now there is an illusion that you just have 1 Weedle and 1 Pidgey around you all the time... but you could be surrounded by the things lol. But yeah in their hopes to keep the Sightings from looking like there is not a ton of common Pokemon around you, then instead we get a shit Sightings portion which really doesn't help because you can't really judge if you have found the guy closest to you when you come upon something from your sightings.

Also the fact that the Sightings updates about once per minute really hinders any usefulness it might have had.

Oh... that is a good point actually. I wouldn't want my sightings list to be full od pidgeys, though I think I'd prefer that over the current system. At least I'd be able to accurately tell what is actually close by me. And the sightings list updating per minute also explains why pokemon on the list could suddenly disappear. It def doesn't help when I'm looking for pokemon while riding on my bike : /
