Pokemon Go!

We should do a GL sweepstakes bet on what the first pokemon go related death will look like, if there hasn't been one already.


Disclaimer: Deaths like some pleb killing another pleb over a dispute don't count. I want some next level retardedness where somebody gets K.O'd whilst using the app.

Can't wait till it dies. I'm rarely on Facebook but it's annoying how it's filled with it.

Got people asking if I wanna go hunt Pokemon. *bleep* off.

Trade me that Machamp homes or me and the Chavo's are gonna stick a glock in your ass.

In all seriousness what's to prevent them asking for the phones at glock point instead; this is especially bound to happen in 3rd and 2nd world countries.

First death will be someone cycling/walking into traffic.

Read this thread and then installed the app. (I tend to use GL as a trend filter).

Went out around midnight for a stroll. Freaked out a couple of neighbors - bearded, wheatish skinned man prowling around and hanging around street corners in the dead of the night in a conservative, residential Swabian neighborhood lol.

Then a wild Pokemon dude jumped at me. Pretty sure he was a Hobo before he flashed out his mobile and asked if I was hunting Pokemon. Freaked the shit out of me. Made up some excuse about trying to calibrate my phone sensors and jogged home on the double. Was kinda sure I might end up as the first dead person in SW Germany playing the damn thing.

Can't decide how long I will keep the app.

I am too lazy and wary random social interactions.

Any Indians playing the game ? We have poor internet connection around here and gps is always very unstable.
Like to know if anyones doing it, how they are doing it.

I am a huge Pokemon fan btw. Can recognize every pokemon except the ones in the latest versions.
Ninetales is an all time fav of mine.

BTW have anyone played INGRESS ? Niantic's previous game. It was fun too.

Do you mean Indians, as in people playing the game in India?
Otherwise, I am sure there are many Indians playing in US/Europe/..

Yeah, I grew up with them Nintendo games. Was a fun ride.

People playing the game in India.

If a guy is going to steal some dude's phone, Pokemon *bleep* Go will be the last reason they're doing it.

I walked 5 miles yesterday while hunting for the damned things, its fun and all but the kick for me is all that social interaction. Seriously i've seen more poeple outside in the last 3 days than i do in a year around here...*bleep* suburbs. Anyway the game will die out in a few weeks so i'll enjoy it while it lasts.

Yeah, unless they add fights and battles it will die. They do have 7 generations of more Pokémon to keep it fresh though.

Just installed it. Got charizard and some little shit called weeble

Weedle you mean

He eventually evolves into this beast

Yea weedle lol. pos was hiding in the kitchen

Launches fully is Asia tomorrow

Should have left him there tbh.

I was watching a video some guy found Charizard, but he was in a "Do not enter" zone

I predict some stupid things to happen. Can see people breaking into peoples houses to catch Pikachu.

Haven't played it as much as I'd like to. Ran out of data.

What exactly do 'gyms' do?

Teams fight over the control of gyms, you go here, kick ass, get experience, and claim the gym for your team. If you go to a friendly gym you can practice and earn experience as well.

Suddenly a shit ton of kids and their parents are playing this, i now feel out of place playing this in public lol.
