Why I Love Pokemon Go & How to Play

Pokemon Go is a game I play. I like it because it makes me feel like I am catching Pokemon in real life. At the start it felt like I didn't have any good Pokemon but, then I caught my first good Pokemon after a battle. It was a 1602 cp Bisharp.

After that, I just kept getting better Pokemon. I got a 2017cp Exeggutor.

Soon I had my very own Ultra league team (Pokemon 2500cp or lower). It was Exeggutor, Dragonite, and Mellaweta (the mythical Pokemon).

Now I will teach you why it is hard to catch Pokemon. At the start, you get to pick one of Bulbisor, Charmander, or Squirtle. Then you start walking around catching new Pokemon. At the start, you will probably not get Pokemon more than 500cp but then once you reach level 10 you can start battling. The more you play the game the higher your level gets. The first time you battle and win you will get a strong Pokemon like how I got my Bisharp. Then over time, you will get better Pokemon from research and just walking around. The strongest Pokemon I ever got from walking around was A 2610cp Passimain.

In Pokemon Go, there is something called a Raid. It is where you and up to 19 other trainers battle an extremely powerful Pokemon. One-star raids you can beat by yourself. After that, you're going to need other trainers to win a 3 or more-star raid. The strongest raid I have ever beaten is a five-star raid. It was a 54,000cp legendary origin form Dialga. And the best part is it gives you a chance to catch the Pokemon if you defeat the raid. I caught the Dialga. Technically, I caught two of them. One was the origin form and the other was a normal one.

Also, you can catch Pokemon from all over the world. I caught my Dialgas with 9 other trainers in Hawaii and I caught a Wrydeer in a raid in Mexico. I am excited to catch some Pokemon in Japan in April.

One last thing about Pokemon Go. You can hatch eggs by walking in the real world. For some eggs, you only have to walk 2km but some can take up to 12km.

I hope you try to play Pokemon Go soon. And this is also my first post of 2024.
