Been a while! On July 19, I reached 400 Noibat candy and finally evolved Vincenzo. I walked him for 693 km, which puts him at #2 in the fitness club rankings. In early August I hatched a Pancham and evolved him a couple weeks later (I gave him a bunch of rare candy, so the limiting factor was catching 30 dark-types, which are pretty rare these days). We reached best buddies on August 29.
Dad has around 80 best buddies. He's really hardcore about Pokemon Go. I'm not nearly as into it, but I am going to try and update this log more often.
