    What is Pokémon Go?



    Are you familiar with what Pokemon is? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it was a Trading Card Game (TCG) with a TV cartoon (Anime) tie in to flesh out the TCG game play. The basic simplified rules of a TCG is that you battle another player with your deck of cards. You draw a hand and play the cards as battling monsters with ability cards that can either enhance, attack, or defend. This is a generic explanation, not one specific to Pokemon or GO.

    Pokemon Go, is a mobile device (smartphone or tablet) application that allows the player to play the game in the Real World (RW) as an Augmented Reality (AR). An AR being a game world overlaid upon the RW on the mobile device screen. The player then walks about searching for randomly appearing pokemon (ket sters). Once a Pokemon is found you can capture it, how this is done can bee seen in a youTube tutorial video. Then you go to an AR gym which corresponds to a RW location to train your pokemon. Again see tutorials to learn how to find gyms and train. It's a game world the size of the RW. With 150 monsters to collect (game slogan is 'gotta catch them all').

    Pardon any spelling errors
    Konfess your cyns and some maybe forgiven
    Boy: Why can't I talk to Him?
    Mom: We don't talk to Priests.
    As if it could exist, without being payed for.
    F2P means you get what you paid for. Pay nothing, get nothing.
    Even telemarketers wouldn't think that.
    It costs money to play.  Therefore P2W.
