Sooo. I think I might've screwed my current accounts by logging in via PF before doing that on my phone. On the phone, there was a pop up window saying that Gen2 was out. Legitly, I wouldnt be able to catch anything before I closed the window. Sooo yea...heads up for you guys in case you didnt log in first.
I had been catching Pokemon on my phone the day of release and didn't get the pop up about new pokemon because of slow data im assuming. Then after I had botted for a day, I was back on wifi on my phone and got the pop up. I am sure numerous people who don't bot didn't get the pop up either.
