So, I may be 42, but I gotta catch them all

I can imagine doggers checking their phone _hilst in do_n time and then running to catch Pikachu.

If you have no idea _hat this is, it's an augmented reality game..... _ith Pokemon.

Here's the trailer.... https://youtu.be/2sj2iQyBTQs

I'd be lying if I said I _ouldn't get this. But I'm getting annoyed that the UK App Store hasn't got it yet. Although I heard it's only until they sort the servers out. The people _ho already have it here though, I've heard there's a chance it could end up getting banned on their phone like its a kill s_itch or something.

All the rumours of bans are just that, rumours based on people's past experience _hen using Ingress. Pogo uses a lot of the data from Ingress for Pokestops and gyms etc. Quite amusing to see Ingress portal locations no_ being s_amped by people to battle over gyms etc.

Its a good enough game, but I still prefer Ingress, plus there are still a mahooosive amount of bugs to sort out and the battery drain issue is a joke, it _ill easily chomp through your battery like no tomorro_.

Pubs are great because Ingress used historical artistic or meaningful landmarks as portals and PoGo just used that data to create poke stops

They don't use all of the Ingress portal data for Pogo and definitely not ones in very close proximity to each other.

We both absolutely love this game addicted especially as it brings childhood memories but the best thing about the app is you actually have to get outdoors to find the pokemon OK yh you can get a bus but it's better to _alk or bike so secretly pokemon go is one of the best exercise app/game at the moment

Because it's been used by Ingress players for years _ithout any issue. It's not the game persay just the lack of respect from the people playing it

Yep and as the article states it's almost exactly the same permissions as ingress. They _hat to kno_ _here I've been _aking, they can happily do so.

Being safety and privicy conscious is one thing, being paranoid that everything is going to be used for nefarious purposes is another

Like I said I don't understand fully but _hy do I have the option of creating a Pokemon Club trainer account? Surely I can use that to log in _hen the servers are fixed?

There's mass uproar that the ne_ update yesterday broke the log ins and people _ho had Club trainer accounts can't get in

To be fair that's not the _hole story. He's given up his job to travel and taking the opportunity to catch a fe_ poke mine along the _ay.

I gave up a year to travel around China and loved it... Catching a pikachu or onyx along the _ay could have been very fun indeed
