Anybody walking Togepi as buddy?

My second togepi was hatched on 1/1/2017. Since then, never got another. For 19 more candies, I need to walk 95km. Am I being stupid? For all these distances travelled, I could have gotten 19 lapras or snorlax candies.

I have hatched 4...and I have 40 candies.
I figure I will hatch another eventually, and get my candies that way.
If I walk it then the next one I hatch will be a disappointment - at least if I am still waiting for candy, then the next hatch will still feel useful.
My suggestion is to stick with Snorlax/Lapras candies from your buddy.

Chansey and Dragonite are also perfectly acceptable buddies.

True that...if I had a Dragonite then I would walk it too. My smallest of my 4 dratini is my buddy - but I only mentioned Lapras and Snorlax as they are what the OP mentioned.
A city of over 2 million people and a dratini nest has not been documented for weeks - but that is me getting side tracked now.

If u dont need snorlax, lapras, or dragonite candies then chansey should be ur next buddy to use and dont ever see togepi being useful at all. Just ask pikachu.

I have completed all but completed the pokedex except for Togepic & regionals. I flat out refuse to walk my way to a Togepic! I will hatch my way there eventually and will pick up dratini, lapras and snorlax candy until then.

No point in walking a pokemon like that. You should always have snorlax or lapras (or maybe chansey / dragonite) as your buddy,

I've hatched hundreds of eggs since babies came out and still no Togepi lol.

Which one you value more, pokedex or good gym pokemons.
That is the question, find answer in your heart.
Listen and heart will tell.

I've met players who have tried gym battling and decided it was a complete waste of time and would rather spend their time collecting a Pokedex.

I buddy walked Pokes to finish the original regional dex, but I can't see me walking to get Togetic.

Agreed...

For folks with gym endgame priorities, then Snorlax/Dratini/probably Chansey and if high enough level, Lapras is good to walk, but I think a lot of folks don't even bother with gyms to care much and only want to catch them all (since most people view gyms as just 10 coins per gym and not the stardust boost).

For those folks, I think walking Togepi is fine since I've noticed after they catch them all, they stop playing so that's their endgame...My brother stopped playing probably 2 months after launch after he caught them all already and laughed when I just started after he and many others stopped.

Some people just can't be bothered to waste 10 minutes or more on taking gyms and rebuilding/prestiging gyms.

I live in an area where only a few gyms are found; therefore, gym battling is not a priority. Candy of snorlax, lapras and dragonites is not a major issue, stardust is.

I hatched over 150 5km eggs since New Year but no more Togepi seen. I am running out patience !

I did the same thing as I only needed a Tauros and Togetic so was walking Togepie when I hatched another one and had enough to evolve! 93% too so happy day. Now back to walking Dratini which are rare for me.

It depends on your goal in playing. If you are trying to get a strong team to dominate gyms, Togetic isn't going to be very useful. If you enjoy the challenge of completing the pokedex more than fighting, go ahead and walk him.
