    27.3%
  3. It's horrible! People are just wasting their time with it!

    The Pokemon Go Official Thread

    With Pokemon Go officially out in America and in other countries across the world, a thread about it sounds good to me. I personally am not crazy for it but if any of you are, here is the place to talk about it! You can talk about what Pokemon you got, crazy experiences you went through, or maybe deals on items you can get with your money. Anything along that line. Discuss away and please keep it civil~

    Can't really say much as I haven't played/tried it myself as I can't because I'm not rich enough for an advanced cell phone.

    Some of the news stories though...

    Are funny, disconcerting and interesting all at the same time.

    Also... is it Generation 1 pokemon only? I haven't seen any other gens of pokemon in any of the pictures I've seen yet...

    It's not. Everything you can get from the store is easily and readily available at PokeStops.

    Then you have a problem. But they reset every 5 minutes, so you could drive to one and get ~30-40 items an hour. I live in the suburbs so the nearest stop is kind of far away to walk, but driving is no problem. Unless you live out in the country you're fine.

    Actually, it is a technical pay to play. The PokeStops do help, but most of the stuff you need requires IRL money to get.

    I was hoping there was a rare pokemon on my property so I could charge people to come get it, no such luck though

    I've seen people setting up lemonade stands and such on or near PokeStops. They just drop a lure and let the money come to them.

    I was sorting out Student Finance and watching Star Trek.

    Though, if anyone know's where I could find Gastly near me, I'd be very interested...

    I wouldn't mind trying it after hearing too much about it but I'm too poor for an 'advanced' cell phone.

    I don't have a cell phone let alone a smart phone, but I do see a lot of people play the game at work.

    Never played Pokemon go. :/ I mean i guess its fun everyone else is playing it but usually the teams I mostly hear about is pretty bad where bullying tends to happen. I mean i know not all team members of valor and mystic and instinct do that but...<_<;; still..
    plus i am not that much into pokemon anyways
