i know what you're thinking- and yes, we do have a pokemon topic.. but this is different.

So just post your finds/adventures in this game.

My phone can't support this game and I wouldn't be caught dead walking on the street with a phone on my face for more than 5 minutes but I felt like sharing this. Might be better on All Purpose since it's someone's parody? I don't know.

I usually play this after midnight so I don't have any competition as I build up my levels.

Some bastard is catching all the pokemen in my area

THE GAME CRASHED JUST AS I WAS GONNA FIND CHARMANDER ****

When is it being released in the U.K.?

They said by the end of the week.

It crashed a ton through setup, but since I caught my bulba it's been pretty steady. I'm obsessed and I've drawn some people in already.

I live near a lake and I thought I'd be the only one around there. Today there's groups of people running around with their phones looking around awkwardly when they reach a pokestop.

Also, does anyone else see the lawsuits coming? If it's possible to die whilst taking a selfie, I can imagine a lot of scenarios where you're distracted long enough for something, or someone, to harm you. Even with the warning at the loading screen I doubt that'll help.

The warning at the loading screen is a fail safe. If someone tries filing a claim, they can just mention the warning to win the lawsuit.

It's only a matter of time before some kid walks into oncoming traffic.

A few people have already died from it.
I'd source but I'm on mobile.

It doesn't matter. As long as they spawn on your screen, you can just click on them and they'll show up. You don't have to walk towards them. It's constantly watching your phone as you look for Pokemon to pop up. Although, the phone should vibrate and give you an alert when one pops up, as long as you have the app open. So you really don't have to look at your phone the entire time. Now, you do have a "nearby" list of Pokemon that will show if you're getting closer. My son and I walked around a park to see if it would actually update as we moved one way or another. We kept looking at the phone as we walked in one direction and watched it get closer until we found it. There's also the idea of finding pokestops, which are set on the map. It's just like looking for anything else on a map, as you watch yourself get closer so you know if you are near. But if you click on the pokestop, it will show you a picture of where you need to be, so you can just look for that. But people will look constantly at their phones as they move on the map to see where they need to go (similar to looking for directions on a regular map).

photos i took.

This is nothing new. They are data mining to improve Google location services, also the deal with Ingress. This is why the app is both free and ad-free.
Plus, I don't get why people skip ToS and then get worried about something they don't like, and was in ToS, had they read it. Very foolish. Plus, these permissions are pipeline placeholders; Android users can see what permissions get used and which don't (and also have the choice to block the ones they don't like, no questions asked!), and like 80% lie dormant.

All the front end staff at my workplace are Team Instinct which is ok, Me and a couple of others are Team Mystic, the best one, and the Produce department is all Team Valor who are now dead to us

I find it hilarious that grown adults are walking around a grocery store with their phones looking for pokemon

It doesn't, unless you have internet EVERYWHERE then you are likely going to use your data for this.

Sorry, but if someone dies trying to play the game, it's the PLAYERS fault for being an idiot.

95% he was playing pokemon go.

he was right near a pokestop.

It's hard to joke about something that too many people actually believe. What's stopping anyone here from thinking the same thing?

Apparently Pokemon Go is now being used in the po......
phone rings
Yeah? Hmm mmm, ok
hangs up
Sorry I can't finish the news because it's very inappropriate, but apparently people have reported 3 headed doduos that are not evolved. Diglets have appeared in the darker corners of the internets and for some reason they know harden as an attack.

Sorry I cant continue , the point is that inappropriate pokemon go pictures have become popular.

And I thought I was lucky with being able to detect 1 pokestop

For some reason, I can't find Pokemon Go in Google Play on my Android. It's out in the UK but not Ireland?
