thinking about Pokémon Go Summer (again) and how it likely blew up so much because adults finally had an excuse to Go Outside And Play in a way that met them where they are. Like, over time the ever-present threat of public humiliation/being filmed for some bastard's TikTok has done such a number on folk that some can't just relax and goof around and express themselves anymore, limiting their outdoor play to organised sports or maybe a yearly game of Frisbee In The Park. But to have an excuse to be playing outside on your phone? Something literally everyone is doing all the time? With a globally recognisable and easily accessible media property? Having a reason to be curious and explore your local surroundings, and talk to strangers in your environment, even if that reason is something as trivial as "there's a Dragonite over there"? Inspired. World-changing. Shame Niantic fucked it so hard

Since you've talked about genre taxonomy at length before, I feel like you'd have a fun answer to the question: is Pokemon GO a gacha game?
Pokémon GO is technically an invasive species of orchid.

Say what you want about Pokémon Go and Pikmin Bloom but they were bright spots while I was hospitalized a few months ago. I was in a constant friendly battle with other patients over a gym in the middle of the hospital and it brightened my day when I could see the same anonymous people help me beat mushrooms in Bloom, not to mention it made it less bothersome to be wheeled from one test to another in a wheelchair when I turned on flower planting mode.

I happened to open up Pokémon Go and am right back in it because I caught my dog. So I had to see how the two measured up today.
