Anyone else with no snorlax Level 35+?
I'm level 35, been playing from the start, 1139 hatches and no snorlax. Only one sighting. Has anyone else experienced this? It can't be normal.

The chance that a certain egg contains a Snorlax is 1/315.
(and it was 1/312 before Generation 2, so not terribly more likely)

Chances that you miss Snorlax in 1139 hatches are
314/315^1139 = 0.0267
While that is unlikely, one out of 37 players will experience the same.
I am sorry for you and wish you more luck. For me, I am level 37 with 726 hatches and while I got 3 Snorlax (slightly above average) None of them had a good moveset (nor extraordinary IVs) and I am still waiting for my first Snorlax worth powering up.
I wish you good luck cracking that ZenHeadbut-Hyperbeam Snorlax soon ;)
I was in your shoes until level 28 (Level 36 now). I have 1800+ hatches and have hatched 2 Snorlax. However, for whatever reason, I have caught a dozen Snorlax since level 28. I even ground a few of the low CP ones up for candy.
However, I only have 3 Dragonites. One of which I walked the whole 122 candy. Dratini for me are almost zero.
My observation has been that people who have a deficiency in one form have a surplus in another. Do you have dratini in your area? For me I can't seem to hatch/catch a mareep at all. I've caught 2 Lapras and 4 Snorlax since gen 2...no mareerp and I've hatched a lot of 10ks. I got the usual compliment of a dozen Gilgars, a dozen Mantees, and everything in between.
I think it's pretty random. I'm level 33, have hatched 7 snorlax and caught one in the wild. I've only ever seen one other on the "nearby" that I didn't go after. So I'm in no means a snorlax biome (if those even exists), but have hatched my fair share.
On the other hand, I've never hatched a Chansey, and the two dragonites I've evolved were SW/HB.
I have hatched total 1 Snorlax and have caught 2 without trackers. I have caught a lot more with trackers (that other local trainers are sharing) and have monitored the online map frequently.
Snorlax spawns where I live, Bangkok, Thailand, are against all that this game was supposed to be. They normally spawn in the middle of private residential area where access is, sometimes, not possible. They normally spawn in the middle of the night (imagine the response of those residents when 100+ trainers rushed to their peaceful neighborhood during those time). They are not anywhere near Pokestop so forget about seeing them in the "in game tracker" if you are in the city (Nearby show Rattata 3 blocks away but not the snorlax that just barely out of your vicinity range). Good luck finding them without the tracker!
