Did you want to be the very best? Like no one ever was? Is catching Pokémon your real test, and training them your cause?

Pokémon Go is the newest creation from The Pokémon Company, and it is horrendously excellent.
CEO of The Pokémon Company Tsunekazu Ishihara said in today’s press conference that he’d been working on Pokémon Go for two years, with the late Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata.
The concept revolves around a smartphone app, and you can actually find virtual Pokémon in the real world. There’s also a watch that you can purchase, called Pokemon Go Plus – it lights up when there is a wild Pokémon nearby. Then, you are able to:
> Fight >Bag
>Pokémon > Run
Seriously. Watch the campaign video:
Pokémon Go will launch on iOS and Android in 2016.
