The Pokemon Go hype may be gone now, but I am still on it. As a late bloomer, I worked, or "played" quite hard to reach my position now, which is Level 22. One of the reason why I don't wanna give it up yet, is because I wanted to keep playing it when I am overseas. Just like what I did when I was in Greece last month.
I caught the Europe exclusive - Mr.Mime! That is so rewarding.
Many of my friends were playing it too during the trip. It is fun to be able to take photos with those Pokemons. Hhaha...
But there is one thing that caught in my mind. Most of my Pokemon players friends, are cheating - I even have a friend that reached level 30++ (that's like 2 months ago!)
I tried to cheat a couple of times, I seek advises from those high-level trainer friends; for some unknown reason, I always failed. Not that I failed to install the cheating apps or whatever, it's just every time I want or I have installed it, the site crashed, or somehow Niantic have blocked the cheating apps.
My bad bad luck. So far, I still playing it like a normal non-hardcore Pokemon trainers. I just give it a go when I go out, which is not very often. Oh, well.
I also find out that certain area have a "swarming" type of Pokemon.
Say, my hometown don't have much of Spearow or Ekans; but Pidgey and Ratatta is easily found apart from Poliwag, Magikarp and Tentacool. Maybe because I live by the sea.
Talking about sea, for some odd reason, when I visited Santorini and Mykonos island, I was expecting Magikarp everywhere, but nope. Here is what I got most: Voltrob and Magnemite. Just for 4 days (I don't play it 24 hours), this is what I got. Amazing isn't it? I am still wondering why these particular islands is full of these two Electric-type pokemons. Why?
Anyway, I still wanna try to cheat, I won't teleport to another continent. I just wanna teleport for 1 km away, just so I can catch Pokemons without leaving the comfort of my bed. Hahhaa
