Let’s Go!

The mythical Pokemon Shaymin visited my garden

Remember the summer of 2016, when just about everyone spent a few weeks catching digital monsters in the augmented reality game Pokemon Go?

It may not be the global phenomenon that it was at launch, but Pokemon Go is still going strong – players have spent over $6 billion on the game over the past six years. And last weekend was the game’s big annual event: Pokemon Go Fest.

Real life got in the way of me being able to devote as much time to GoFest as I did the last two years, but I had fun playing and was able to add a few rare Pokemon to my collection.
