Since the games first came out, our entire staff has spent a great deal of time imagining going outside and catching our favorite Pokemon. One of the best feelings in my childhood was catching a rare Pokemon that took hours to find/catch that I really wanted. And now, after 20+ years, that is finally going to be a reality!
