...I do like to keep everyone on their toes Louise!!<br /><br />I went to the Art Gallery yesterday to see the Frida exhibition (hopefully a Sat Snapshot coming up soon) and walked home through the Botanic Gardens. So many people were playing Pokemon Go - individuals, couples, groups of young men, middle aged women and a couple of pasty white teens who looked like they hadn't seen sunshine and fresh air for years - all out walking in the glorious winter sunshine yesterday. <br /><br />Circular Quay was packed with players and pokemon. It was quite a sight!<br />It's an amazing phenomenon.<br />Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-61789237359951935762016-07-28T23:04:28.622+10:002016-07-28T23:04:28.622+10:00You did surprise me with this!

My son has put it on his iPad, but the iPad can't go out of our wifi- luckily for him we live near a park and he's found quite a few just from the house!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13187730620736345378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-32852098302758193102016-07-28T09:51:34.332+10:002016-07-28T09:51:34.332+10:00Ohh a Scyther, I don't have one of those! B16 ...Ohh a Scyther, I don't have one of those! B16 caught a rare Jynx on Monday to great general delight. And Mr Books caught a Pikachu on his first outing.<br /><br />Turns out some of the 'lesser' pokemon are pretty common depending on your area. We catch a LOT of zubats, magikarps, pidgey's, weedles and spearows in our area, but I've read that ones like drowzee are everywhere in other locations (& we've yet to see one of those at all).<br /><br />Ten days ago several pokemon had not been seen at all - Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Ditto, Mew and Mewtwo. Farfetch’d is apparently exclusive to Asia, Kangaskhan is only found in Aust/NZ, Tauros in North America and Mr. Mime is in Western Europe. But you may luck out and hatch one of these region specific pokemon if you incubate the right egg! Farfetch'd, Tauros & Kangaskhan can be hatched from a 5km egg and Mr Mime from a 10km egg.<br /><br />There is now a North American Pokemon Master who has caught all the pokemon available to NA users.<br /><br />Maybe Niantic will release new pokemon with updates at some point? There are 151 original pokemon. So far only 143 are 'out there'.<br /><br />Great marketing and forethought all round really. And people are out walking and catching pokemon everywhere - even on a cold, cold winters night!Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-18580806140244597222016-07-28T09:21:24.050+10:002016-07-28T09:21:24.050+10:00The augmented reality aspect is rather fascinating...The augmented reality aspect is rather fascinating, but it sucks your phone battery.<br />B16 showed us how you can turn off the AR function. It also makes it less obvious that you're playing the game, if you're concerned about what people might think (all great tips from B16, of course!)

I spent entire school holidays playing Guess Who? monopoly, patience, scrabble, yahtzee and canasta. My siblings and I always made up games to play in the car on our long family car trips. So it's very easy for me to get into the modern types of games.<br /><br />B16 and I had a great night on Monday. It was such a lovely time together. Our enthusiasm then convinced Mr Books to join us on the Tuesday night!Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-76584242827631259002016-07-28T05:47:07.531+10:002016-07-28T05:47:07.531+10:00I'm trying to get to Level 8 so I can put a lu...I'm trying to get to Level 8 so I can put a lure outside our library.

Is it not nice when you can do tjis over the generations and at the same time move around. Great game it seems. Lisbethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06791114411504072597noreply@blogger.com
