Wouldn't it be more fun (and more effective) to walk to the footy from Frankston? |
Not at the risk of getting mugged by Apex and them putting a ransom on your Pokemon's life.
Getting a letter in the mail win Pikachu's little yellow ear would be very distressing. |

| Doesn't he turn into Sand-something, allocate them all 1,000 damage points and escape - or have I missed a bit? |

Because it's something New to the Pokemon Series and Just about every Person who played the game always wanted to go an Find Pokemon in the Real World.
This is the Closest it probably ever get

They never really went away, there were still Pokemon games and the likes being made. The TV show may not be being made these days but I have noticed card games, and other such games being released for Pokemon and they're as popular as ever.
I think they have released a movie in recent times, I could be wrong. But I assume the makers of Pokemon are doing their best to cash in on the remaining popularity of Pokemon.

Remember to pick them up, pat them and put them back. Like all wild creatures, Pokemon should be left to roam free.
And, whatever you do, do not train them to fight each other. It's cruel and abusive. |

Maybe it could be the future - trophy " hunters" can track and kill animated critters on their smart phones rather than killing real animals!
Or Asians could track and kill animated rhino and tiger and elephant on their smart phones and be convinced that when partaking of useless supplements or admiring trinkets they were indeed the real deal and leave the real animals to live!
Or animated greyhounds and horses could race on smart phones and bogans could bet on them and win prize money and stop killing real animals to make them a $$!
Or dog or cock fighting smart phone V's smart phone - place your bets - winner takes all!!!
Works for me!!!

If the phones are so smart, how come the people using them are so dumb?

Glad you Tried and Found it some Fun.
You don't have to take it as Seriously as some do. I do use as reason to go for a Walk and Have fun doing it.
Last 2 days I been on longest walks I been for Ages. Like Today I walked around 3km's
