    It is so exciting how Pokemon is bringing so many people together again and encouraging being active <3

    I'm in the UK and I've got it on my IPhone, you just need an American app store account and it will show up. Took five mins to set up and all you need is an stateside address.

    I love it. Since last Thursday I've walked an extra 8-9 miles on top my normal. My 5 year old also wants to walk with me for the first time ever. Normally, that kid is just sitting on the couch watching pokemon.

    May or may not have taken a break this morning to go catch Bulbasaur. May or may not have done the same thing on Monday for different one....

    I've had a Venomoth escape me like 5 times, got quite the workout hunting it down. >.< Anyone else annoyed the servers are worse than usual today as they push for a world-wide release?

    I believe my husband is hooked to the app. On the other hand, I am not, but I don't mind walking around with him while he does it. Although, his eyes are glued to his phone and he will probably end up walking into something. He's also already very slender, so it doesn't really help his situation.

    It sounds like a great idea to get kids out and active, but in groups or with adults, not on their own. I just hope it doesn't encourage young kids to go out on their own looking for Pokemon in secluded or dangerous areas when who knows who else could be around "looking for Pokemon" or looking for kids looking for Pokemon.

    I have the app on my phone and me and the kids go out hunting together, ok so I might go hunting without them :lol: but I saw on the news in the uk that they are worried for children's safety while using the app and I can totally see why, hopefully all Pokemon hunters stay safe
