"Idea for a tracker that will comply with Niantic's vision for this game"

#PokemonGO: Niantic wants people to immerse themselves in this game, and take in the world around them. However, the player base desperately wants an new tracker, and most suggestions thus far have only encouraged people to be glued to the phones.So what if we had a tracker that, instead of working like a compass or steps that have you staring at a phone, made you listen.A tracker that occasionally plays sounds (or vibrates a certain way) to indicate wether you're coming closer or going further away from a selected pokemon.With this, there would be no visual input to signify wether you're getting closer, only via sound or vibration, removing the need to look at your phone.On top of that it adds a huge amount of depth to the game, listening for rustling grass to try to find a pokemon. via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2njXeFl
