Pokémon Go is one of the fastest growing apps around. Half of the world is playing this game, children, adults, I've even seen grandparents playing. I have met countless amount of people just from trying to catch the nearest Drowzee. I once even had a waitress put down a lure in the restaurant so my friends and I could catch Pokémon while we waited for our food (she was the real MVP). The excitement of finding new Pokémon, the anger when it runs away, the intensity of battling, and of course arguing with your friends that their team is better. But let's face it, there is a process when it comes to this glorious addiction we all have. These are the 13 thoughts we all had when we first were new to the Pokémon world.
1. Wow, Pokémon Go is so stupid. I don't know why everyone is so obsessed with it.
2. Fine, I guess I'll download it just to see what all the hype is about.
3. WAIT, how do I move my character?
4. HOLD ON, this game requires exercise? I thought video games were for being lazy?
5. I caught a purple rat looking thing. I'm the best Pokémon player EVER.
6. OMG! I'm finding so many new Pokémon, this is the best feeling ever.
7. * Internally Sings Pokémon Theme Song*
8. Join a team? WHAT TEAM DO I CHOSE.
9. Honestly, this is the best game ever. I'm so glad I downloaded it.
10. Wow, all I'm finding are Ratata's and Pidgey's. WHAT IS THIS? WHEN DO I FIND PIKACHU?
11. Actually, this game is kind of boring once you think about it.
12. Yeah, this is honestly just a waste of my time. I don't even know why I started playing it to begin with.
13. HOLY SWEET BABY JEASUS, MY EGG IS HATCHING. THIS IS THE GREATEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN IN MY LIFE.
And at the end of the day, you still can't manage to find the courage to hit delete and lose every Pokémon you got and to start back at level one. It's a piece of our childhood, a game brought to life almost. And let's face it, you've all brought out your cards since this game hit the app store to live old memories. Just a reminder, make sure to be safe when playing. Don't play and drive, don't play and cross the road without looking! Happy hunting, Pokémon trainers, you gotta catch them all!
