"Level 40 reminiscing"

#PokemonGO: Background: My kids grew up playing pokemon. We would spend time on long car trips seeing who could name the most pokemon in the shortest amount of time. I drove them on many trips to Blockbuster to print out their gameboy pokemon phots. They had matching Ash and pikachu halloween costumes. So when my daughter told me about pokemongo I downloaded it right away. Picked Charmander as my starter and started playing July 9th, 2016. We went downtown to catch and spin and followed a swarm of people to catch a Chansey. Followed the tracker to catch a Charmeleon the day I dropped her off at college. My son came out to visit and was amazed at the number of growlithes and hitmonlees and chans he found. When I went out to visit him I caught so many oddishes and bellsprouts and enough magikarps for my first gyrados. Playing this game has really helped me keep in touch with my children as they've grown and left the house. Now I even have my husband hooked. Yesterday I was lucky enough to have them all home with me and we completed a porygon raid together that unlocked level 40 for me. They set off fireworks and sprayed silly string and then we had pizza to celebrate. I was smiling the entire night and caught Farfetched to cap off a great evening.My stats: Jogger: 2,576 kmCollector: 34,248Scientist: 5,336Breeder: 1,678Backpacker: 32,904Battle Girl: 2,608Pokedex : 246Random Fact: Youngster: 484 tiny rattata via /r/pokemongo http://ift.tt/2A7BbfR
