    I'm probably going to look into it. Might keep my kids busy.

    I'm mostly worried about the data usage though so I might have to wait until I come back from my camping week end.

    I wonder how well it works if you're not in cities though? I tried Ingress but it was just frustrating because there is pretty much nothing in my area.

    The other day i found and captured a Pidgey but i dont know how do i level up :(.

    BTW there is a way to get Pikachu as your starting pokemon ^^

    I didn't do this but I have heard that you can walk away from the three several times and then he will appear with them.

    To level up you need to catch other pidgeys. Then select the best one to keep. Go to the others and at the bottom press transfer. You'll get pidgey candy, yes it's pokemon specific. Then go to the one you kept and you can either raise up his power (youll need the star dust which you get every tikw you catch something) or evolve him with the right amount of pidgey candy. It will tell you how many you need. It's going to be hard to evolve some of the others that aren't as common.
    I've already evolved a Pidgey and a weedle. It takes 400 to evolve a Magikarp

    The CP you find pokemon at is basically just luck it seems, and the higher level you are as a trainer the more chance you have of finding higher CP pokemon

    Lifehacker.com has an article on how to minimize data usage in the game.

    So I caught one - and I live in the country...and it said (when I first logged on) to find clues by statues, landmarks, etc. This might be a city slicker game.

    This is what is nearby...not much and nothing less than 2 footprints. I walked to our pond and it was still 2 footprints. See below:

    Must be better in a populated area.

    I walked around with the kids for 40 minutes...

    Meh. I agree that it must be a city game. I'm in the suburb, there was nothing at the landmarks (just pokeballs), we did find a few in a restaurant's parking lot and in the street, but absolutely nothing in the blocks farther from the main road. It burns battery and data too so I'm just not sure we'll bother. And it seems it's the same type of pokemons hanging out in the same spots and I'm not driving around trying to find others.

    I saw a post on fb from the st Louis, mo police and a news station posted soon after them as well saying armed robbers are setting people up to go to abandoned or very empty lots using this game, so just be safe y'all.
