I know now why so many people skipped and/or hated this game haha! (Just got back from Disney). It was fun, but deleted now. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

    …while I banged in the buddy miles daily when out running…

    What is this phrase? Fucking your buddy daily when running?

      Them and their buddy must get around…

      (The game has a mechanic where you can gain candy needed to power up specific “buddy” pokémon from fitness tracker walking distance)

        Oh God, lol, I thought this person was letting their kid go fight a gym while they got a quicky. That makes so much more sense.

          Yeah, it’s probably more British slang more than anything. To “bang in” or “knock in” or “pan in” or “put in” a quantity of anything is generally used to describe a tedious or repetitive task.

          One could “knock in a good few hours of revision” or “bang in half hour on the treadmill” or “put in a shitload of effort” or other such terms.

          In this case, my lad plays Pokémon Go, but I’ll cover distance goals to accelerate progress a bit.
