So, went to the San Clemente Pier to hang out and catch Pokemon. I was really looking for Magikarp, but I think I only found like two during the four hours we were there. It was a bit of a flop in that regard, but otherwise it was a fun adventure!
I didn’t take a picture of everything that I caught, but (aside from those shown) I found a handful of Machop, a couple Slowpoke, some Tentacool, Charmander, Sandslash and Magmar - along with the usual boring ones you can find anywhere.
Stopped for food at the shack on shore, and while I’m no expert on what would be considered “proper” fish and chips, these were really good. Super light and flaky inside, crispy outside, and not overly saturated with oil. Probably should have bought another, cuz my gf kept stealing bites…
Valor and Mystic kept taking the gym, but Instinct was able to hold it for awhile. I tried to train and do my part, but I kept getting errors when the battle screen came up. A little sad about that, but it was nice to see yellow hovering above the ocean - like a beacon calling out to those at sea!
All in all, four hours very well spent!
