Admit it... You're playing Pokemon Go.
« Reply #15 on: July 09, 2016, 11:36:35 AM »
Like jibjab, I was too old for Pokemon.

However, my daughter has loved it for the past few years (she started playing the old GB games...before graduating to the DS...yeah, she is truly my daughter :)

Anyway, we are in a very rural area now and she is bummed that there is only one uncommon out here.

WHATEVER.

I started playing last night. We actually walked up and down the dead end lane we live on so I could get to one of those post things, and caught a few on the way.

I won't "actively" play it. It will be more of a thing to bring up on my phone when I'm somewhere new and bored.

I played through Pokemon Yellow once. It was okay for a Gameboy RPG.

That's the extent of my Pokemoning.

I tend to see this more the. Anythjng else.


Also you have to be annoyingly on target when near a historical sight. I was INSIDE the Alamodome and it would say I was not close enough to use it. Not even when I. The parking lot as I left when the game was over did it work.


But with that said I am sure things will improve with time. And it is a fun distraction.

Not me. My Pokémon experience starts, and also stops, at Generation IV.

I have never played a Pokemon game.  My co-worker plays this religiously.  He's a young guy though.  Only 26 :lol:  So he grew up on Pokemon.  He was so excited showing it to me.  It just seems kinda pointless to me.  If people like it great, but I have no interest in it what so ever.

Hard to believe the first two Pokemon games came out 20 years ago. Christ, I'm getting old. Never really tickled my fancy though. Too old at that point to even care, was more interested in the Playstation and Saturn at that point.

I have been playing Pokemon in some capacity since it was released, I was never a fanatic but I have always enjoyed it.  The main reason I am playing is my girlfriend also enjoys the game and we went on a long walk today to play together, it was really nice.  Taking over a gym together was a relationship bonding experience.

We haven't spent any money yet and we both have so many items because we walked around a lot and got a lot of free stuff.  If you live in a city you will never need to spend a cent, if you live in the country you might not be able to find enough pokestops for free stuff.

Ha!

I told my daughter to have the courtesy NOT to step/walk over a corpse whilst searching for Squirtles or Psyducks.

If you are a teenage girl you can report that, if any of us forum creeps reported a dead body, they would say we did that shit in a heartbeat.  I am just walking away and catching some more enslaved pocket monsters.

Pokémon is the video game embodiment of a collectard. That's why it got old for me as quickly as it did.
