Well since that I'm not gonna get the game anyway and I also live in a village instead of being in a town it probably wouldn't really affect me at all but I do worry if peoples are getting in trouble by having Pokemon Go and do stuff around it!

There was an incident where a teen found a dead body in a river.
People have invaded private property to capture pokemon.
Robbers have used "Lure modules" to bring people to secluded areas.

I just got Fusion earlier today, I still wonder why Nintendo didn't do this themselves. Imagine the easy money they would have gotten. Has anyone else here played Fusion?

I don't think I've heard about it, although I assume it has to do something with Poke-Fusions, and honestly, it would be incredibly hard to implement, considering that there's already over 700 Pokemon, and think of all the possibilities of fusing just 2 Pokemon together, and the number goes even higher when you go to 3 or higher, not to mention people may not like the official fusion design if it was ever official.

A smaller group was able to create 90,000 different pokemon using this mechanic, so nintendo would have to do 700 x 700 which is.....
521,284
Yeaaaa it's definitely not happening.

It's apparently causing a lot of trouble in the US with people trespassing to catch pokemon, or people being targeted by these beacon things were criminals lure people in to mug them. There's the whole spying/tracking/if-the-app-is-free-you're-the-product thing that I won't get into because it belongs in its own thread about augmented reality, but it's something to think about too.

It might be affecting work performance already, otherwise I don't think they would need a staff bulletin where I am:

"Please do not play Pokemon Go at work! Your phone will be taken away and you will be written up!" (large print, ALL CAPS)

I overheard some talking about Pidgeotto and Pikachu, though they weren't actually playing.

Speaking of which, I still don't have Go, because my trash piece of a phone isn't compatible with it. I'm getting an iPhone soon, so all's still to play for.

I mean, unless you find a pokemon in your workplace, or there's a gym there, you can't really play pokemon go at work. It's actually one of the better games for not affecting work performance.

No, my Tauros evolves into Miltank instead of Bouffolant when I let him hold Moomoo Milk and leveled up.

Does anyone here play Pokémon Showdown? Been playing it for a bit (just over a week) and really like it. Would anyone be interested in battling? I usually do OU singles

I usually play OU singles, but I could do doubles as well--I like that there's a bit more strategy

I don't exactly plan on getting pokemon GO anytime soon, from what I heard about it, it sounds DANGEROUS, to play from what I heard. While some of the stories I heard about it are probley fake, I still don't plan on getting it anytime soon.
