Allergic to cardboard.
Our kids (9 & 6) are not allowed to touch our phones. We're going on a trip in two weeks with another family who are ALL (including parents) into this game. Should be interesting. *eyeroll*

Pokemon go isn't dangerous. Idiots who don't get the big picture and have a good eye lead time are. The people I see driving around playing this makes me cringe as well. They should cap a speed on the gps where the game shuts off automatically.

Pale skin kids that have never been exposed to the sun are out in record numbers, adults too.
Watch them gasp for breath as they walk 200 yards and then the horror on their faces when they realize they will have to go all the way back to recharge their phone.

Why all the hate? Our whole family has been playing it. We went out to the pokespots and gyms. As a family we take over some of the gyms in our area, which are at state parks btw. The pokestops are also located at churches and other landmarks. We all walked around the park near us and were capturing Pokemon together. We didn't have our faces buried in the phones, it gives a vibration when a Pokemon is near.
Not sure if some of you don't understand the game or think it's just to childish, but perhaps you could try it before making wide accusations that just pimple face kids living in their parents basement play these games.
Don't like it, that's cool, great thing about this stuff is no one forces you to play. Everywhere we went that had folks standing around at pokestops and gyms, you had a wide range of people. From families, to young teenagers, to guys in their 40's. Some were outside walking around, others were idling in their cars (Lexus, Mercedes, beaters and everything in between.)
Do a little reading and look at the strides this app goes to to actually get people to move around and interact with others. You might be surprised at what you find. Again, if you still hate it, just don't play it, simple.

The Pokemon universe is wide with a ton of characters. The whole thing that gets me is the having to get out and go to places, on top of walking to hatch these egg things. It really gives another level of motivation of activity that no other app so far has been able to integrate so well
Technology evolves, I agree. Sometimes it freaks me out a little bit, but it is the future. I try to keep up.

You should hatch that 10k egg, might get a chansey. Debateably one of the strongest, definitely the best.
