The end of my water event...dang!
I work 4 days a week. About 15 hours a day. My "weekend" is Wed, Thu, and Friday. So I spent a huge part of those days hunting for the Shiny magikarp. No luck. I ended up with an Omastar, 2 new Lapras, Qwilfish (which I did not have before event), and a whopping 833 Magikarp candy. And not a single shiny magikarp.
I live in a biome where I'm generally lucky to catch a magikarp once a week. So my best (and near only) chance was during this event. I'm back to work tomorrow so I won't have more than 20 min or so a day. I know all it takes is one lucky fish, but so far it's been 200+ unlucky fish.
When exactly does this event end? Anyone know for sure? Seems this event just sort of happened out of the blue with no build-up. Not even exactly sure when it started.
