Pokémon Go came out less than two weeks ago, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it has already changed the world in many ways since.

Listed below are fifteen real life incidents that have happened while playing Pokémon Go, good and bad.

And Pokémon gave me the chance to live that dream.”
