    Hey guys, I'm trying to organize a trip to south east asia backpacking in the wild in hopes that we can gather as many pokemon as possible. If you want to join us, please be on the red team (duh) and make sure your work/ family has confirmed permission to leave for at least 2 months.

    We are pooling resources for survival, shock proof cases, battery chargers, screen cleaners, any sort of water proofing for phones you can find (this will be important as we expect massive amounts of rain), solar powered phone chargers, various types of USB cables for android/ apple devices, ice/ hot pads (we will be looking down a lot, so neck WILL hurt, this is very important) and if you have any non-perishable food as well, but not that important.

    Please donate at:
    www.Gofundme.com/PokemonSouthEas…...
    as soon as possible, and confirm if you wish to join our team.

    no one over 14 plays this game

    • I believe you are wrongernexbcn
    • turns out it's mostly those who were hooked as children, and they're in their late 20s and older by nowmonospaced
    • i dont believe soCygnusZero4
    • if it was an AR game about collecting shit from Gears of War he'll be praising the shit out if it and saying it's the best thing ever created HAIL MS XBOXernexbcn
    • since i'm 31 and i play it, i can say with authority you're wrong. I also know at least a dozen people my age playing itsarahfailin
    • oh boy lmao. 31 running around with their fucking cell phones looking for pokemon that dont even do anything!CygnusZero4
    • its not even a game. its as useless as nintendogs.CygnusZero4
    • you're just jealous you're too dead inside to enjoy ittrue_cut
  • CygnusZero4-7

    Btw my niece plays this shit. Shes 6. You literally dont do anything in it. You catch little digital creatures in it. Thats. It. Most boring "game" ever made. Along with nintendogs.

    • do you think they give a flying fuck when they gross 1.2million daily?
      ********
    • Nintendog? Is that your response to everything you don't like? Lol very creative.pango
    • It has no campaign, so it must be shit.face_melter
    • I donno, I see why it's popular, I liked Pokemon when it came out for its strategy element. It seems like they stripped it down to the point of button mashing
      ********
    • But yea, the main criticism against pokemans was that it is antisocial and fostered a inactive lifestyle, seems like this is a response to those criticisms

    someone tried to set up a facebook event for a pokemon pub crawl, it got shared widely enough that there were 1,200 people RSVP'd "Going" and another 2,300 "Interested"

    they deleted the event because holy shit.

    Professional Pokemon Trainer ad in the NYC Craigslist


    About me: Also known as 'Golbat-chan' on sites like 4chan and imgur, I am a 24-year-old lifelong Pokemon enthusiast who wants to help YOU become the very best.

    My services are simple: I will walk around in 1-4 hour shifts signed in to your account capturing every single Pokemon I come into contact with, activating every Poke Stop I pass and walking nonstop to help hatch your eggs. I'll even send you hourly updates while you're at work/class/on a hot date informing you of any really exciting things I've come across for you. Pokemon training help, gym battles and strategy tips are also included, if requested.

    About me: I'm a white female, NYU grad, and a well-employed freelance journalist with a massive Golbat tattoo on my arm. I have been playing Pokemon (both cards and gameboy/DS) since 1997 and Pokemon GO since its opening day. I'm in between major projects and have a lot of spare time on my hands right now and also may or may not write an article about this in the future. Personally, I am a level 15 trainer in Pokemon GO right now and control all of the gyms near my place. I know what I'm doing. For more info about me (and to see that I am, in fact, a real human being) check out the VICE article that has been written about me and my obsession.

    http://www.vice.com/read/gotta-c…

    Details: I currently own an iPhone 6s, several portable chargers and am in very good physical fitness. Spending hours on my feet is not an issue. I will sign into your account (which, hopefully you weren't a total noob and used a fake gmail address when you signed up for this app because the surveillance is real) and treat your account like it is my very own. I will catch them all. I will focus in on catching specific types of Pokemon (i.e. fire, water, electric) if you want. I'll even send you silly screenshots so you don't feel too much FOMO while you're doing something that prevents you from accessing PokeWorld.

    Every exchange will begin with an in-person consultation at your nearest poke stop. No creepy stuff. I know how to defend myself and will not take any bullshit from you.

    Send your name, age, occupation, area of the city you are hoping to obtain my services and a link to something that can prove to me that you are a real human being. If I can confirm your identity (remember: I'm a journalist and very good at this) I will get back to you to set up an appointment.

    When this rolls out worldwide, you're going to get bams taking flights to other countries purely for the purpose of chasing these things down. Then, national / global leagues. It has the unforeseen potential to be absolutely fucking huge.

    Amazing scenes.

    • Pokemon Go is going to jumpstart WW3GeorgesII
    • Whoever decides to try this is Russia has balls bigger then King Kong.face_melter
    • special flight packages for pokemon, stores offering pokemons, etc. I can see this getting pimped the fuck out.zarkonite

    anyone else kicking themselves for not investing in Nintendo stocks? I mean, the company fucked up and prices dropped so low... but they always spring back... should have known....

    • Yeah who would have thought. This was so hush hush also but look at AMD and Amazon.teh

    So Niantic Project/Google made this for Nintendo. I think Ingress is way better and it never got as much attention like GO has. Im sticking with Ingress.

    • Looks like |v| up is much easier in GO also.|teh
    • I used to play ingress till I met a group of people whom were way too serious with the game and their drama within their group. Then I stopped.pango
