Oh man, early Pokemon Go was such a great time. I was on vacation with my family at Cedar Point, and I remember a group of people running down to the hotel lobby shouting about catching a Jigglypuff and I found a Magmar on the sand at the beach, which felt kind of fitting lol. I also captured a Valor gym and a guy from Valor who saw me on my phone walked past me grinning and said, “I see what you’re doing.” I also high-fived someone on the same team at another hotel, haha
I’ve also spotted Team Instinct art under a bridge at a trail near me while I was geocaching, which was pretty cool!

Confessing time! So when Pokemon Go came out, I didn't have any mobile service for the longest time and felt left out. I wanted to play so badly too, but I just couldn't. I didn't have any money at that time! All my friends were playing everywhere! It was the busiest time I have ever experienced in our town. Everywhere you look, there are people staring at their phones and playing all day long. Our suburbs were full of people and kids running around and playing. It was great! It was a great time to be alive! 😂
So what did I do to play? I downloaded one of those GPS things that lets me play from home. I obtained so many rare Pokemon in such a short period of time that when I showed them to my friends, they were convinced I cheated (which I did, but... I lied), telling them I found them in front of my house. 😂😂 I will never play again!!

Hmm, I don't have anything too exciting personally. I played PG around the time when it first came out and it encouraged me to go out and walk/exercise more if the weather was right. I was already used to walking with games/apps when I had my 3DS way back when.
But there's not many gyms around where I live, and I wouldn't dare go up to some random person's house for a pokestop like some of the other kids were doing. So, I dropped it after a little while. I kept the habit on going on walks though, which I'm thankful for.

@(you need an account to see links) - omg you know as much as I've cheated at neopets I don't think I've ever done it with Pokemon Go! Even when I was traveling I was nervous that the gps shift would somehow lock my account and then I would lose all of my hard fought pokemon haha. This was also super made worse by all the horror stories from other people about working with Niantic to get their accounts back, so I never tried cheating!

2016 Pokémon Go was an absolute trip. I definitely remember the stampedes of people for rare spawns like Dratini or even Lapras. Every day was an adventure walking around town and meeting new people who were also playing, and I even managed to make a few friends (though once the pandemic started we fell out of touch, ah well that's just how it goes.)
As gym defending became a huge thing, the town I live in started up factions. We'd have turf to defend, and some people got WAY too into it. Even camping out near their gyms late into the evening to keep them from being attacked and taken. Looking back at that behavior, it's no wonder so many places started kicking Go players out after sunset.
@(you need an account to see links) omg that was definitely me though! I have a gym very close to my house AND I would walk my dog pretty late (like midnight ish), so I always thought of it as MY gym. I'd take it over at midnight and have my partner add his pokemon, and then in the morning when I went to work I'd often go by there, take it back or re-berry them all!
We had a few right at work that were always fought over too, but I was always in team Instinct so we typically didn't ever get those ones since we were outnumbered by a lot.
