“Wow, couldn’t they just make this something I can do at home?” As iDigitalTimes notes, a lot of these downloads are probably infested with malware; whatever you think of Google Play and the Apple Store, they are the single strongest defense against mobile malware, and hackers delight in releases like these which give them an opportunity to target mobile users indiscriminately.

My childhood dreams come true. This mechanic encouraged me to take the dog into the fields surrounding Brighton to find more grass type Pokemon.

The post quickly rose to the front page of Reddit with many commenters trying to offer comfort to the hapless Pokemon Trainer.

A Pokemon GO player’s Reddit post details how playing the game at work leads him to being suspected of breaching company security, putting his career at risk. Here’s some tips that will help you be the very best (that no one ever was…sorry, I had to). I’ve already stockpiled numerous from just casually playing the game, and there can be some droughts where you receive no eggs for a long time. Those are Pokemon that are nearby. No footprints means it’s right there. Having your face buried in your phone is an obvious walking hazard, and you could wander into trouble.

First, players will need to walk around a bit. What you may not know is that it was once possible to submit data for where Pokemon and various gyms would be, but this was shut down. Journeying with friends is also a decent bet, as you will have more fun, meet people, and catch more Pokemon that way. Some Pokemon are also quick runners, so you’ve got to move fast.

“When you go outside and #PokemonGo servers are down”, wrote Kelly (‏@Meandaenie), while Ry ‏(@rylieweidhaas) stated, “I’m so addicted to #PokemonGo that I actually get into a bad mood when the servers are down lol”.

PokeStops are common locations, with one being located typically every few blocks or every several miles in suburban areas. This isn’t always the case, but it does happen! To place a lure module, tap the white cylinder above the picture of the Pokestop, and it should open up an option to place a lure module. The little buggers are everywhere and it’s up to trainers to catch them all if you can sign onto the game’s servers. Once I got through the brief tutorial, I was alerted to the fact a Pokemon was behind me. And it’s not considered cheating, everything is just coming up Milhouse. Still, if you want to know why some Pokestops are what they are, these guidelines explain why. But if and when any negatives arise out of Pokemon Go, there are sure to be easy fixes to what is overwhelmingly a positive experience.
