Pokemon GO

..and with that, pow! I'm gone
I don't know if you guys know about the new Pokemon app, but it allows you (with the use of GPS and Internet and your device's camera) to capture Pokemon in real life!! I caught my starter, a Bulbasaur, not too long ago and I'm hooked
 
I think there was a thread already, but I can't bother to find it so you're fine.

I can't get this because I have a Windows Phone and that just pisses me off.
 
i can't because i'm in the former united kingdom and japanan doesn't love us

well WE HATE YOU TOO JAPANAN pls call me i miss you :'(

Welp. That sure escalated too quick.
 
One of the PokeStops I passed by was a Giant tooth. Too bad it was too far from where I was in the car.

I can't catch the fossil pokemon like Metapod and Kukuna.
 
Is this game good?

The things that are stops and gyms here are lowkey ridiculous, like a park, a K-Mart, a church, and oddly my friend's house

hella, but you gotta walk around a lot to get all the pkmn nearby
 
Why does this game only have a user score of 5.7 on Metacritic?

probably because the servers have been down a lot lately due to so many people downloading and using the app at once

I can't really blame nintendo though. this is their first time doing something like this and only their second mobile app overall. it was bound to be buggy in the beginning, but it'll get better soon.

Man, this thing.
 
Alright so my dad got this on his tablet for me and that is why he is the greatest dad ever.

My current Pokemon are as follows:
Squirtle
Zubat
Caterpie
Weedle
Venonat
Pidgey

And there also appears to be a Nidoran Male and a Slowpoke in my backyard, but I didn't go looking because it's midnight.

the developer is fixing the problem but if a hacker manages to get in the servers before it's fixed, a lot of people are fucked
i revoked access until pokemon go gets its shit together

gotta love clickbait fearmongering



in the morning I will be taking over the gym on my street. there are signs that it's actively being fought over but they keep leaving a cp~215 drowzee or a cp~205 pidgeotto on the gym and i'm gonna FUCK IT UP with my cp800000000000 pokemon

wish me luck that the gps will work and locate me where i need it to

Found six while delivering the local papers. Love how I found that Zubat on the countryside at 13:30 instead of in the woods at 1:30.

Also there are two Pokéstops that I can literally see from my house (but can't reach from there, must go out for them).



Don't really get all those people crawling into backyards for Pokémon, you can fetch them from like 30 meters away.
 
tbh i think i might've missed something in the introductory tutorial because i was of the understanding you didn't have to be in the range of the pokemon but rather you had to actually have your character marker on top of it in order to enter battle. what occurred to me afterward was that i had to simply tap on a starter that was in range rather than go out walking to the location where it was.

hence now i've chosen charmander as my starter for the first time in any game ever even though i wanted squirtle
