Thanx for the friend adds folks, task complete.

Now my biggest challenge is battle in ten raids. I've already missed two at the gym a two-minute walk from me and the first was totally out of stupidity!
My two others are close behind, evolving a Magikarp and evolved grass type.

Ugh, and my curveballs are still pretty bad tough my aim is improving. I can get it in the Pokemon's direction about half the time.

I've had log-in problems somewhat frequently. Logging out, closing the game, reopening it and logging back in solved it for me.
The problem seems to have desisted since I connected to Facebook strangely. It's only happened about twice after that--so far.
