So, the water festival has been and gone, and to me it was a waste of time. The only thing that would have made it worthwhile was if the 10k egg I collected during that time had a Lapras. Nope. A non-water based Pineco. All I saw were the same things I see anyway, and in addition, there was an actual increase of fire types!
You need to fix the speed warning. It shows up at the stupidest of times, and children trying to play as passengers cant collect when they drive by.
Also - PLEASE do something for those of us who do not live in major cities and have the benefit of a multitude of places to collect Pokémon and go to Pokestops. Unless you want to travel, it is the same stops every day, and the same common Pokémon every day. As it is, it took me ten months to evolve Bulbasaur to a Venasaur.
Another issue is the only giving out evolution items on the seventh day of visiting a Pokestop. Not everyone has a stop close by - some of us need to get in the car and drive to the closet Stop. If we dont have to be out and about on the weekend...you are not promoting energy conservation by making us go out just to spin the disk to try to get an evolution item. Randomly dropping them out like the berries and potions is better.
