If someone didn't he is too late for the summer of 2016 , he might be still stuck on flappy bird (lol) .Pokemon go was released by Niantic, Inc. at July 6, 2016 celebrating the 20st anniversary of Pokemon. It was first released in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.Before its release it has been said that the games trailer was to be the number 6 most watched video.Today Pokemon go has over 100 million downloads and due to high demand Niantic is working on making the game worldwide step by step .

Pokemon go was made to target the kids of the 90s who used to watch the tv series "Pokemon" . The game's main aim was to trigger people to wander around their area, visit places they have never been to, and explore life away from home. The best part of it that the game places us in Ash Ketchum and his partners' shoes, making us feel the triumph he felt catching pokemons.

Despite the fact that Pokemon Go wasn't released worldwide, everyone got obsessed with it. Hackers found a way to spread it in all countries. Due to the excess hacking, the servers started to fail making the game crash several times.

In Lebanon, Pokemon go isn't officially released yet. But somehow people are managing to download and enjoy it . They even made their own facebook page and placed events , for example On17 July 2016 (at 18:00–20:30 in UTC+03) which is about 3 weeks ago the lebanese Pokemon go players managed a meeting event in beirut souks , and according to facebook 1k people attended but 3.4k were interested . Can you believe that ? pokemon go have spread very quickly in lebanon , but we still rarely see our neighbors playing it .

Pokemon go uses a 3g plan to be played outdoors , in lebanon there are several public places that provide free-wifi , that's a good thing for pokemon go players where they can enjoy pokemon go without being worried about their 3g plan. Another thing is that in lebanon you can enjoy playing pokemon go without fearing to be hit by a car or so , since there are many closed areas for walking in the capital.

Pointing your phone's camera on people in Lebanon to catch a pokemon doesn't sound like a good idea, you will probably get yourself into unwanted trouble. Just be careful no one is around or turn off the camera.

Most players in lebanon are teens and college students people between 12 & 32. Pokemon go is replacing the gym , people are going out more moving their legs making public places more crowded.I have heard many people that they are losing some weight and they feel great making their legs fit again.

We should talk about poke stops some areas does not contain poke stops at all , that is good and bad at the same time . I am talking about really far places like small villages people are being obliged to get into the city in order to reach a poke stop.Knowing that some people can't afford a bus ride or that they cant go to the city every day.

I should ask Niantic, Inc. to take lebanon into granted , the lebanese citizens deserve to be treated equally at least by making it easier for them to play games go out and enjoy their life as humans by providing more pokestops in the deprived areas.
