The phenomenon has taken the world by storm. is it available in your country and have you played it?

Almost level 18, but I'm about to do another evolution-spree.

1028 Vaporeon is my best, second is a damn 909 Pidgeot


First Pokemon game I've played. Started as a fun thing to play with my daughters, turned into "honey, you're going to waste all the Pokeballs doing that, give it back". Took 1 gym that had a 300cp thing on it.....only lasted a couple hours. I really have no interest in the gyms (yet), I just want to be able to crush people if/once 1v1 battles are a thing.
Opinions are my own.

Would never, it's too dangerous.

My little sister had the game boy color yellow with the Pokemon yellow game so I did play a little bit of he game in middle school but I never really got into it. I held off on Go until yesterday when I wanted to see if it was any fun. I found out I am too lazy for this. If a Pokemon isn't in my vicinity when I open the app, it gets closed immediately

Downloaded it a few days ago. Figured it was just swiping up to a pokemon so you can capture it. Nope. No battles? Fuck that. I'd rather play fan-made games like Reborn or Rejuvenation on PC.

Same here. It was barely a 1 week fad for me.

Occasionally I pull it up on my phone if I'm gonna be walking a long distance to see what I find along the way. Rarest Pokemon I've found thus far is an Eeevee at my (now) alma mater school. As a result, I'm barely at level 4.

Personally, I prefer the real Pokemon games, you know, the ones on the 3DS and shit. I've actually been playing those pretty frequently now that I have more free time. :)
