Anybody playing? The game went absolutely ape-shit, it needed just FIVE days since release to become to most popular mobile game in the history, and the single game made the powerbanks sells quadruple in few days.
Still a lot of bugs and server problems, I guess they should have waited a month or two more before releasing it, but it's still awesome.
Also a lot of hate towards the game ("how can grown up man be going around and catching pokemon") but I think this game made something impossible nowdays happen - people are actually going out just to play the game.
Check this video, 200+ people in a park in US going crazy over some rare pokemon:
I am in Canada playing it a little. A lot of people are playing at the school I go to, its not bad a little gimmicky. I give it a couple months before it dies out. There is no real strategy to the fighting at all just swipe left and right and tap.
There's seemingly a spot outside my kitchen window. During 20 minutes of cooking yesterday I saw like 6 couples walk by all moving their cellphones around stupidly.

I haven't played it but if pokemon battles aren't like previous pokemon games it's a big let down
the battling is super lame
Haven't done one myself but they are supposedly gonna add a bunch of stuff in the future

Umm whats so rare about a vaporeon? I made one from all the evees i caught. I saw a middle aged man playing it at my poker table yesterday. Game is like diablo or wow but with a real life element with just lots of farming and leveling up to ctach more rare pokemon.
I see this game becoming as big as those games if not bigger. But man farming is very bad lol. Days of just doing the same thing to level up.

not sure if you realize that this is an oxymoron
oxymoron means phraseology itself is contradictory, it's not a word that stands in for "that's something I think sounds stupid"
Thanks... i didnt know that at all ...
And no i dont find it stupid, its literally an oxymoron its your problem if you dont undestand why tbh ...
There were much worse "zombie bullshits" , this one at least makes people socialize and go out if not anything else. And tbh I dont see a single "con" around it, examples like ppl dying cause of playing it wouldn't really be suitable as .. well they are just retarded to be prioritizing on a phone game so much that to ignore common sense

i don't think you do, it probably means something else in bulgarian. it should be pretty easy to understand what i said, the people who rejected technology at first are now the ones susceptible to crazes. if it gets imprinted on you early that there's nothing special then you know better
