Go Pokemon Go

t2 GIVES YOU A PIKA-BOO INTO THE WORLD OF POKEMON GO!

Things that have happened to us since Pokemon Go

A lot of people have collided with us on the streets. They were too busy looking for Pokemons to look up.

WhatsApp messages have gone unanswered because who needs to check WhatsApp when we have a PokeGym to own.

All our Facebook timelines are filled with screenshots of rare Pokemons we have collected. Best way to keep track of where Pokemons are lurking.

We have approached the guard of a coaching centre for permission to enter because there are Pokemons inside.

Everyone in our college is roaming around with eyes glued to phones. Professors can be risked.

Our friends are taking OLA or Uber to travel the distance needed for Pokemon eggs to hatch.

Even the most lyadkhor friend has been taking the Metro up and down, five times in a row, to hunt a Pikachu.

We have seen people call it a ridiculous game, then seen them succumb to it hopelessly.

We’ve seen our para friends roam around at 3am because that is the best time to catch Gengar, the ghost Pokemon.

People who have never woken up for a morning walk are waking up at daybreak for PokeWalks.

The dad’s morning walk was ruined by a group of 20-year-olds asking him to move out of the way because they had spotted a Pokemon behind him. 

The dad finds out about Pokemon Go in t2 and says, “Please tell me you’re not playing this game”. He probably remembers our enthusiasm for the cartoon as a kid.

We have gone through our old collection of tazzos (Pokemon cards) to brush up on the different Pokemons.

All this hype about Pokemon Go has made us reminisce the days we fought for the remote at 5pm to watch Pokemon.
