Someone on Reddit found out about it. https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/878wsx/trainers_professor_willow_is_seeking_trainers_to/
As for dragon type yeah that's going to be quite a field day. Unless you have parks that have lakes around, that might increase your chances of finding dratinis.
Unless you could end up getting access there somehow. But I don't know how the people there feel about being asked to go on their property. lol.
There is a water park about 30 minutes away from my house. But it rarely spawns dratinis and i'd get only about an hour and a half of battery life with my external.
People are getting excited about the wrong aspects in my opinion. Mew, yay! Rare candy and machines, hooray! But this is just same old, same old in the end. And I bet that after the first day people will start complaining that a) everybody will have tons of Mews soon and b) that they personally did not get a Mew on every challenge.
What really excites me is that we are looking at a completely new kind of gameplay here. Catching pokemon in the wild finally has meaning beyond grinding. And if they manage to keep the trackers down, finding a specific type to catch will actually be the challenging part of the game.
For sure, i actually prefer a little that the trackers are down, except on regionals, which i have em all on 80+ except for illumise, heracross and corsola, the fun will return a little to the game. As with the trackers i had been only playing a few minutes per day, just when i find the pokemon i need on the tracker, instead of on the game directly. Just i hope they can solve at least the issue on the iv calculators, i dont mind about the trackers, but i do on calculators
