A Brief Pokemon GO Guide For Newbies

Lots of people are going gaga over Pokemon GO even since its first release. This augmented reality game has turned the world upside down, affecting each and everyone's life. It is a walking proof that AR titles are the thing of the future. In its most organic form, it is all about catching Pokemons and levelling up as a trainer.

According to IGN, Pokemon GO from Niantic was first released in the US back in July 7. It was made available for both Android and iOS mobile devices. Needless to say, the AR game is heavily based on the highly favorited Pokemon Company/Nintendo characters. Simply put, it allows players to experience the thrill of catching monsters in real life.

How To Catch A Pokemon GO Specie

The distance of a specific Pokemon GO specie is indicated by footprints. It informs players as to how far or close a monster is. For example, a three-footprint Pokemon indicates a location that is quite far; whereas the zero-footprint could possibly be right in front of a player. If a specie is located nearby, the phone tends to vibrate.

How To Throw Pokemon GO Balls

In Pokemon GO, Poke Balls are the only means of catching Pokemons. Without it, it is almost impossible to capture even a single one (obviously). While using it may sound pretty easy to do, some throws just tend to be a headache. That is because throwing them requires a little bit of practice. The need for spinning technique and perfect timing is just of utmost importance.

Using Items In Pokemon GO

To make Pokemon GO look easy, using items should be a must. They can be found at PokeStops or, if possible, bought in the game's official store. There are items that allow players to lure Pokemon towards them, something that can make catching rare species even more possible. (Check this guide on how to catch Gastly, Haunter and Gengar.)

Leading A Gym In Pokemon GO

Once a particular level is reached, Pokemon GO players can lead a gym of their own. But of course, this should only be done if they are fully equipped with the right species. From here, they can battle other players and dominate the competition. Here are some tips for winning gym battles.
