Australia’s response to the release of Pokémon GO has been largely subdued. After all, the vast majority of Aussies with smartphones have outgrown the childi-LOL JK, the nation has basically exploded at the prospect of nabbing some digital critters during their everyday lives.
Lord knows we have, and the fine constabulary up in the Top End even took the unprecedented step of warning residents as to the dangers of Totodiles / to stay safe while stalking those elusive Pikachus.
Still, being the very best trainer that no-one ever was might seem like a solitary pursuit: after all, y’all don’t need a posse of Pokébros by your side while you scamper around the joint. It wouldn’t bloody hurt though, and a slew of Facebook groups have sprung up so you can bolster your squad.
