Charmander CD just ended here and here's my take on it.

Total Charmander caught: 458

Total shiny: 22

Total 3*: 104

Total 4*: 1

This CD is a bit different for me. My area is in a soft restriction order so parks are closed, hence I need to use a different route than my usual CD route. Also I think I got exhausted by the 3rd hour so I just shiny check and catch low CP only afterwards.

5 hours of sunny weather helps with even more extra dust. But not helpful as I'm looking for PVP IV.

Incense spawn are good. 4/5 will spawn Charmander while 1/5 is weather spawn.

The usual CD perks like CD pokestop research, 5 photobombs, special research Charizard knows Dragon Breath are still there so that's nice.

Again there's a free research for everyone too, another nice stuff from Niantic.

The annoying thing was that the Rocket event is still ongoing and not paused so those grunts will me on the map. Goodness, the numerous times I accidentally clicked on them when Charmander spawns so close to them.

In general, a tiring 6 hours but fun as always.
