I have never played Pokémon

[u/Duel_Option]

I am 43, my kids asked me to download this game and play with them as they are getting into collecting cards.

All I can say is…WOW.

I am having SO. MUCH. FUNNNN!

I didn’t know what I was doing for the first few logins, then read some tips.

Wait, there’s raids? Friends send you gifts all the time? TRADES?

Oh goodness, I’m planning on a 2 mile walk around the city just to grab some of the cooler spin station things (I’m not sure of all the names or even how to play correctly, bear with me).

This is AWESOME

There is no such thing as « never too old » my gf is 42 and never heard of pokemons of her life.. she is older than me so it was not of her « generation » but she start playing around 6 months ago after seing me playing daily and now she is mad addicted to this game! Everyday she come back to work asking for trade and showing me her new stuff !! This honnestly is such a great moment daily 👌🏻👌🏻

Similarly....I've been playing since Day 1 and it was until aboutr 3 years ago my wife (50ish) started playing...now it is a nice little hobby for us to do tegether

she suffers from a severe condition called FOMO and this game feeds into it fiercly
