-IS IT BANNABLE TO DOWNLOAD THE APK?-

They redirected Google Play's given APK file. You are literally using the exact same version they released. Only bannable if it's an edited file; more money, more pokeballs etc.
The only reason they haven't released it in all countries yet is because of the whole server issues.
They are aware of those people, you know, the ones that download the game, play it 1-2 days and never touch it again.
It's pretty stupid to invest money into extra servers when, in the long run, you won't need them.
At the moment, the whole world plays on 1 server. They wanted structured released, one region at the time, to reduce server issues.
People went and downloaded it anyway.

>Nothing wrong with downloading it, when it's not released in your country
>It's not bannable, only if you use a cheated/edited version.




-CP SYSTEM-

At the pokemon stat screen, you'll see a semi-circle with a dot. It shows the % trained of the current maximum CP the pokemon can have.

CP min/max is the same for all the pokemon within the species(so all pidgeys are the same, all ratatas are the same etc.)

Certain species of pokemon have a higher CP maximum than other species. A magmar will probably be stronger than a ratticate at the same level.

Finding and training a 90 CP pidgey, will not give you a stronger pidgey than training a 70 CP pidgey. The max is still the same. It just means the 90 CP pidgey has a higher % trained. Training the 90 CP pidgey is more efficient, however, as you need less candies.

Evolving a pokemon raises the min/max, but the % trained stays the same. So it does not matter if you train or evolve first.

Catching a pidgeot, will be just as strong as a pidgeot you have gained by evolving. If you compare two pidgeots at 350 CP, you'll see that the % trained is the same. That's why I recommend saving your pidgey candies for when you find a pidgeot.

Max CP for pokemons rises with your trainer level. This also works for pokemon you have already captured. This means it doesn't matter if you train a pidgey at level 5, or at level 15!

Extra: It SEEMS like if your pokemon is XL or XS, it will influence their hp and maybe even their max CP and dodge speed.



-EGGS-

2KM is pretty low tier stuff. The best you can get is the 3 starters, Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Geodude or Eevee. Usually you just get garbage like Pidgey's and rattata's.

5KM can get you some better stuff like Porygon, Sandshrew, Rhynhorn, Horsea, Cubone, Tangela, Tauros or Machops. Stuff that's way more uncommon to catch in the wild.

The 10KM eggs get you stuff that you barely ever see in the wild like Snorlax, Lapras and such.


-TRACKING POKEMON-

The 3 pokemon, bottom right, in the white rectangle are the 3 pokemon you are walking towards to. If one dissapears, you are walking away from it.

More paws = more distance between you and the pokemon.
