As long as you don't go to secluded areas or stand on the middle of the street, you should be fine.

I mean, it's hardly more dangerous than just going for a walk outside, as long as you pay attention when crossing the road. Do you go outside often?

Ok, I'm going to be brutally honest. Calling Pokemon Go "dangerous" is just flat out pathetic. It's not the program's fault that people don't look where they're walking. It's not the program's fault people think they can go wherever the fuck they want just to get a Pokemon. It's not the program's fault that people have guns pointed at their heads for trespassing. It's not dangerous, people are just fucking stupid. They don't think about what they're doing and only focus on the Pokemon, not the real world.

I'm going to sound extremely unsensitive and will come off as a major asshole when I say this, but I have two words for those who die, get punished, or are injured by making stupid decisions while playing Pokemon Go: natural selection.
I don't mean any harm to someone who might know someone who was injured while playing, but you got to remember it's their fault for getting themself in that mess. I mean, a lot of people are making real stupid decisions while playing this game, it's hard for me to feel a lot of sympathy when something goes wrong.

People make choices; not Pokémon. The game itself isn't dangerous, its people's choices regarding it that are

MAYBE, I'll get it.
EDIT:
Acrually, I don't plan on getting it because it's already taking over, and I don't want to look like one of those people who just follow whatever is popular at the moment.

Don't be one of those people who think that just because something is popular means that is absolute trash. Trends happen for a reason. He hype over the game is based on people's opinions on the game itself. Just because people follow it just because doesn't mean you have to. I honestly enjoy just catching Pokemon in the game rather than battling and gym training. You can enjoy the game for seperate reasons. But you won't know if you like it unless you try it. You could be possibly missing out on something fun.

That's a good point, maybe I'll eventually try it.

Don't let other opinions take over yours unless you agree with them though. There's no harm in not getting it.

I can't say a word without someone arguing with me can I?
I'm actually considering trying it. I'm not just copying his opinion. I was already thinking of MAYBE getting it. But I'm just not sure if the game would intrest me.

Haha, I don't mean to argue (it's the internet, what else would you expect)! If you want to, that's sounds like a good idea based on what I've heard. I can't recommend it because I don't have a smartphone and therefore haven't even been close to experiencing it myself.

Don't let anybody tell you you can't copy other people's opinions, they're just trying to sway you. Copy as many opinions as you want, dude.

I heard rumors from the news saying that the pope declared war on the mobile game, "Pokemon Go"... At least I'm not into the hype of the app!

Was playing Pokemon GO earlier today, and I managed to, for the first time, run out of balls. Fortunately, I managed to catch a Squirtle after putting incense down, but I have still yet to track down the elusive Pikachu.

People always need something to declare war on. It's for the attention.

So there was a new trailer for Sun and Moon just now, and they seem to be shaking up the formula a bit. The "island challenges" thing I believe is going to change the mechanics of traditional gyms, and now they're introducing Z-Moves for each type, which are unleashed once per battle, as well as Alola forms for already existing Pokemon. Some of these look quite nice, like Ice/Fairy Ninetales and Ice/Steel Sandslash. What do you think?

There will be 15 mega evolutions

Oh look even more power creep with the Z-Moves, that's great

I'm really, uh, not feeling that. Other stuff in this game looks pretty cool but I don't know if I'm going to get this... Of course, I said the same about XY and ended up really enjoying it so

We currently have four of them so far, here they are:

Grass: Bloom Doom
Fire: Inferno Overdrive
Water: Hydro Vortex
Electric: Gigavolt Havoc

And as you've guessed, we have one for every type. Can you guess the names of the Z-Moves for the other types?
