So - four hours later and I walked 25,000 steps without realizing. Talk about leveling up... Interested to see how many sedentary gamers report weight loss with this game. Anyone else killing the calorie burn as a result?

    Luckily I live on a farm so I don't have to worry about traffic, but haven't tried it just yet :) It's been nothing but rain here in Oregon the last couple of days.

    I just put the app on tonight so I didn't get out much, but I did get 4 in the block I did go. 2 were in my yard and 2 were 2 houses down. Will be going out more in the morning as 3 of my 5 boys want to catch them for me. My oldest is 22 and his fiancé told me they went walking for about 2 hours so they could catch some on each of their phones. Next weekend we are going to walk together. :smile:

    I love this! What a fun way to connect with your family.

    Also to answer earlier questions, I use a portable battery pack!

    I love it! It's so frustrating how HOT it is in Texas all day though because I just wanna walk all day and hatch and catch. Ha.

    Heh, my elderly mother has been coming along with me in the evenings when I cruise our neighborhood looking for some pokemon. It's a win/win in my book: I add to my collection, and she gets better blood glucose readings the next morning. <3
