It wasn't so friendly for me. I took my kids out Pokemon hunting in the car and we drove around for a while looking for one. My son was traumatized when we drove over a pidgee. I'm never doing that again!

Isn't the idea to walk?

I live in a city centre, and there are families walking past all day, with kids looking at phones. And plenty of kids walking alone or in groups.

If any city counts pedestrians, or would be interesting to see what difference Pokémon has caused.

I don't play by the rules of the game.

I guess don't be surprised when your strategy doesn't work out?

I dunno, I got an amusing anecdote out of it and got a rise out of you.
