All I wanted was for one or two of you fruitcocks to put the thing down long enough to cobble together a concise explanation of what the frigging thing is; this was apparently asking too much. As such, I vote for the car hitting option. |

Seriously, what is the premise of the game? |

I'd prefer an actual quasi-human here answer it; otherwise, I'd just type things into Google all day, which I'm starting to think you do. |

You can go a place called a gym, which is just a designated public spot, and battle other people's Pokemon. There are places called stops that give you items to help power up your guy and Pokemon. You don't even have to move to collect Pokemon, but you do to catch good or rare ones. That's basically it as far as I can tell. |

I've never gone into a sewer looking for Pokemon. You have a strange jogging route. Yeah, real strange route on the bike path. Do paths by you not have ponds and sewers drains next to them? At dusk it's pretty easy to see people with flash lights in 8 foot tall sewer entrances. |

Excellent nomination. Plus when some misfortune does occur as a result of the Pokemon craze, it's good for a laugh. |

Apparently people are using this as a meet up thing with others who are into the game. I guess they're saying first you catch a pokemon then you catch a VD. |

Some of the people saying that Pokemon is stupid and/or gay are fans of golf. |

For golfers, I much prefer tales of drunken golf cart drivers ending up in a water hazard. Hopefully they've already thrown a club or two into the woods and made tires marks across a green. But those are just icing on the cake. |

Gotcha ... thanks for the explanation ... if you make it out to Lakemoor, maybe I'll tell security to let you get within 10' of me. So as far as the in-app purchases go, is that so you can carry more things, or can you pay your way into being lazy, or is it 100% no questions asked you have to go somewhere at some point to really 'play' the game? I've never played anything 'pokemon' related in my life (which, honestly, I'm slightly surprised at) ... I think the only thing I've monkeyed with that uses any related game mechanic was 'Puzzles & Dragons' with respect to the evolution of creatures, but there were so many possibilities that it felt far too complicated for an old man to pick up out of nowhere and compete at any real significant level, which is why I stick more to Marvel Puzzle Quest where I don't have to know 1,000 different things, just several dozen. |
