A shitty unfinished game where you walk around google maps and throw pokeballs at Pokemon.

You don't even battle anything other than the gym that is around you and even then it is shallow as fuck and all you do is tap until the other pokemon is dead.

TL;DR It's a pile of shit alpha app that everyone is raving over for no fucking reason.

basically interspecies Tinder

I live next to a pokestop and 2 gyms.
I was the gym leader until i got fucking bored of this and uninstalled the game.

It is far far too shallow for my liking and it is baffling why people are still playing it.

>>344942639
It'g a game that tricks people into getting exercise and exploring their surroundings. Fortunately /v/ is full of fat neckbearded faggots who are way to lazy to fall for that shit.
>>
it's a war driving game where you get real time item drops at GPS locations. it's to train future uber drivers

>>344942639
You were supposed to say "Redpill me on Pokemon Go"
>>
>>344943245
Yeah, it's not shitty naked weeaboo porn.

Is this game a viable way to meet hot gamer gurls?
>>
Does this get good once I hit level 5 so I can actually fucking battle?
>>
>>344942639
It's a botnet/data mining app
>>
>>344942639
It's a ploy to collect more geospatial data, along with photos and videos within private locations that you typically can't get through GPS alone, for surveillance and marketing purposes.

>Tfw you'll never go around Google maps catching naked/mostly naked girls and battling/trading them

>>344943034
This. Its a reskin of a failed mobile game that only sees success because of the name.
>>
>>344944471
Girls yes

Gamer girls not so much

>>344942639
It's a gamification platform that encourages you to run/walk/bike and socialize through the concept of Catching Pokemon in real lives via AR

It's far from a finished product and they'll work on it. Trading is planned and leaderboards and special events for legendaries. If it keeps up, they'll add more generations of Pokemon slowly and potentially add battling but it isn't set in stone right now. Also, better algorithims for Pokemon spawning and potential region exclusive mons

It's pretty nice for a time waster. 10/10, would recommend to a friend. Wouldn't recommend it as a hardcore game though, since it emphasizes getting out and socializing through teams and spawns

You appear to not understand how pop culture works, anon. When it was only you talking about it, nobody else knew what you were talking about, so you were annoying because you were a special snowflake.

Now its popular, so they're talking about it, and they know what eachother are talking about.
