If you're out there on your journey to be the very best, please continue to do so the best way you can. Catch, train and battle your way to greatness like one ever was. If you weren't able to pick up on those subtle references, you truly missed out on this timeless gem. For 20 years, Pokémon has dominated the way in which video games are played. Though now a profitable and cherished media franchise, the role-playing aspect will always be the lovable grassroots many have gotten to experience over the years. On July 6, 2016 Australia, New Zealand, and the United States got to feel that same infatuation they've felt like the first time they picked up a Pokémon game.

Pokémon GO is now a human obsession. It has become this perfect blend of nostalgia for the more aged fans and players like myself, and a revolutionary concept fitted for this decade. But what makes this retro entity so addicting in today's age? Is it because it serves as a childhood reminder, or maybe it's because of the cultural acceptance that surrounds the app? All I know is that this game is here to stay. The developers did an exceptional job in releasing certain features of the game with hints of more to come from the Pokémon experience.

The Pokémon world has finally integrated with reality and has done so with grace and great detail. Grown men and women are walking around raiding Poké-Stops on their lunch breaks. Yes, grown folks are out here trying to catch em' all along with the kids. I was at a local park the other day and people are out and about actively searching for these imaginary creatures, as was I. You cannot tell me that you've never imagined going on a Pokémon journey as a kid. Call me nostalgic and lame, but that's still not going to stop me from finding a Magmar. The same attraction the media brand has provided for two decades proves that not only does this technique work on children, but adults too. Since a great deal of people grew up on Pokémon, the game includes the same elements as if you were on a couch playing your game boy.

Overall, if this game were to be summed up in 3 achievements/goals, it would go like this.

1. To get humanity interactive with other humans again. We are now united under one cause and that is to be masters of our own journey. You meet trainers form everywhere and its nice to know that you are not alone in the Poké cause.

2. Integrate a physical element through an app. People are out walking again, making this the biggest surprise in the digital age. Everyday is leg day as a trainer. In order to be the best, you actually have to go outside.

Lastly, 3. The actual interaction with the environment and the type of Pokémon that are presented in the area. In order for this whole craze to work, it had to have realistic components that makes sense in our world, and the game world. For example, more dark and ghost type Pokémon occur at night. It might be too early to tell, but Pokémon GO is the satisfied fulfillment of the hopes and dreams of 90's children.
