<div style="text-align: justify;">Pokémon Go took over the planet this past weekend and inspired millions of people to get out and be active (while still staring at their mobile phone screens). </div><div style="text-align: justify;">The augmented reality app, which allows players to find and catch Pokémon in the real world, launched in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and a few other countries, with several more on the horizon. But the launch was far from perfect: Gizmodo described Pokémon Go as “mostly-broken”; there is a fake version going around that is reportedly infecting Android devices; and the headlines associated with the game have been weirder and more shocking than its meteoric rise. Here’s some of what you missed while you were out catching Butterfrees and Krabbys.</div>1. A TEENAGER DISCOVERED A DEAD BODY.<br />
2. PEOPLE HAVE ALLEGEDLY USED THE GAME'S SOCIAL COMPONENT TO PLAN ROBBERIES.<br />
3. THE GAME IS SENDING PEOPLE TO PRETTY WEIRD LOCATIONS<br />
4. SOLDIERS CAN "CATCH 'EM ALL" IN ISIS TERRITORY<br />
5. THE GAME IS MORE POPULAR THAN TINDER.<br />

</center><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon has taken the US, New Zealand and Australia by storm since it launched on Wednesday 6 July. It is now also available in Germany and the UK on Google Play and iTunes.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">So, in a sort-of bluffer's guide, here are 11 cool facts for you to roll off when someone asks you all about it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon Go review, or The Trials and Tribulations of a Pokemon Go addict</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Can't get Pokemon Go in your country yet? Here's how to download it now</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon Go: Best, worst and craziest places people have found Pokemon</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon Go: How to catch Pikachu as your first Pokemon</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>5.16 per cent </b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">According to online tracking service Similar Web, Pokemon Go was installed on 5.16 per cent of all Android devices in the US by Friday 8 July, only 3 days after the app’s release. That's more than Tinder.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>3 per cent </b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Over 3 per cent of the entire US Android population have not just downloaded but used the app. According to Similar Web, over 60 per cent of those who have downloaded it are using it daily.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>277 million</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Nintendo has sold more than 277 million Pokemon games to date, over 21.5 billion trading cards in 10 languages, and made 17 feature films over the last 20 years. Time will tell how Pokemon Go matches up to those numbers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>$57.65 billion</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon sales and licences alone have resulted in Nintendo earning a whopping $57.65 billion in revenue as of 2015.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>4 million</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Outside of the US, users around the world have been trying to download Pokemon Go using an APK, bypassing the official app store. The main source, apkmirror.com, saw its traffic go from roughly 600,000 visits on 5 July to over four million visits on 6 July alone. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>$9 billion</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The stock market likes Pokemon Go too. Since Wednesday 6 July Nintendo stocks are up. Nintendo has seen more than $9bn (£6.9bn) added to the company's market value as investors see the huge potential.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>4 suspects, 11 victims</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Four suspects in O'Fallon, Missouri allegedly used Pokemon Go to lure at least 11 users into a trap. The suspects set locations on the app where players could find wild Pokemon. They then allegedly mugged them when they arrived at the location, stealing phones and personal belongings. The teens are said to have admitted to using the app as part of their criminal actions.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>1 dead body</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Shayla Wiggins found more than she bargained for when she went hunting for Pokemon near Big Wind River in Fremont County. She spied a genuine dead body in the water. She called the police, who have since stated that "the death appears to be accidental in nature and possible that of a drowning."</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>£79.99</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">That's the price of 14,500 PokeCoins in Pokemon Go in the UK. It's the most expensive in-app purchase you can get. Coins buy you accessories and things in the game, but sadly cost real money if you want to spend immediately. If you are patient you can save PokeCoins by playing the game.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>362 per cent </b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Spotify streams of the Pokemon Theme "Gotta Catch 'Em All" have increased 362 per cent globally in the past week following the enormous success of Pokemon Go. Overall streams of Pokemon songs on Spotify have more than tripled.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are currently 197 thousand user-generated "Pokemon" playlists and a further 53 thousand simply titled "Pikachu".</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>The top 5 most-streamed tracks on Spotify are...</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon Theme</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokerap</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pokemon Johto</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Go Pokemon Go</div><div style="text-align: justify;">I Want To Be A Hero</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>350,000</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Although the game is finally available for iOS and Android in the UK, 350,000 EE phone customers in the country were reportedly playing it before the official app was released.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i>EE claims that many unique users appeared to be playing Pokemon Go on its UK network in the days after the US release and ahead of the game hitting Britain. That means more than a quarter of a million people managed to download the APK for Android or swap their iTunes accounts for one generated under false pretences.</i></div><center><script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script><br />
