In the Philippines, Pokemon Go is the newest game that makes people go out in the real world and catch pokemon in the virtual world. I myself is so into and willing to walk for how many kilometers just to catch or just see a rare pokemon. With the help of my ever reliable pokemon incense, I am able to catch pokemons easily while walking and sometimes, while I am working in my room. So I am thinking if there is a way to get an unlimited incense so I can lure in more pokemons compared to the usual number of pokemons you encounter?

THE ANSWER IS, YES THERE IS.

This post if for those pokemon go players who are still looking for some of the rare pokemons. Applicable to me as well. I have been to different places now but still unavailable to see pokemons that I am aiming to catch. I also notice some pokemon gyms around my place that have rare pokemon; mostly stronger pokemon so I am wondering where on earth did they see it here in the Philippines?

TIP: If you are looking for tons of Pokestops, you can visit Serendra where you can see A LOT of pokemon go players catching pokemon around the area. I was shocked seeing them play and it was kind of creepy as well. I tried using incense and got overwhelmed with all the pokemons appeared right in front of me! Mostly, Ratatat, Pidgeotto and Weedle that I evolved to get XP for me to level up. Still useful afterall!

I have been seeing a lot of my friends on facebook getting frustrated about this error message on google playstore, "Your device isn't compatible with this version.". So I searched for some ways on how to download pokemon go on mobile devices with lower specs so that they can join the pokemon bandwagon.

Last Saturday, I was able to download the application on my phone's playstore. At first, there was an error saying that pokemon go isn't available to my country so what I did was I used a dummy gmail account that is based in the United Kingdom. Surprisingly, it worked!

So it is official. Pokemon Go just went available to some other countries and that includes here in the Philippines. Right after I saw the twitter status of Nintendo saying that Pokemon Go has added additional countries, I immediately downloaded the app on Playstore and luckily, everything went fine without using any dummy account from a different country.

I already caught bunch of pokemons like Zubat,Ghastly and more inside the house using the lure feature where you can easily attract pokemons even without walking that much. Unfortunately, I was able to use all my lure and planning to buy some more at the shop. I think that costs 80 pesos. Quite affordable.

I know this is kind of late but I just had the time to blog something about PokemonGo being blocked in most countries and that includes here in the Philippines. In my previous post, I was exhilarated after I downloaded the app on my samsung phone. It was the apk that I got  on the website that my friend gave me the day that it was released. I thought everyhing will work fine because I was able to catch my very first pokemon already, a wild squirtle!

And so, it is official. We are not gonna be able to play PokemonGo for now because even if you have the app installed to your phone, whether it is iOS or android, it's overall function will never work for now. You can walk all you want but you will never see or catch a single pokemon.

I was thinking if there is a way on how to unblock PokemonGo and still be able to play it in our country. I have read a post somewhere that you can create another account in Playstore or Apple Store using a different country like for example in the US or New Zealand where PokemonGo is available but of course, you have to have a home address there including the ZIP code. I am not sure if it works though but so far, I don't see anyone from the Philippines who caught a single pokemon other that the first one that they initially got. So I doubt that this work.

Anyway, let us just wait for it to be available here maybe a month or two from now. :) Any input about this, guys?

I was so excited after I downloaded my very own Pokemon Go using my Samsung A5, an android phone. I know this is not yet available for most of android and apple devices and it needs a special trick just to get it from your phone. It is risky though and you have to try it at your own risk! I tried searching for it on my Google Playstore but it is not yet available. Thanks to apkmirror website where I downloaded it for free. So generous of them! :)

I was able to install it and create my character, then caught my very first pokemon after walking around the house. I got Squirtle!

I wanted to get Charmander but I guess Squirtle would be okay.

I tried walking around the house some more but I could not find any pokemon anymore. Will just try walking around BGC tomorrow after work and let's see if I can see some pokemon trainers or wild pokemons that I can catch just like in the game.

I asked my friend on facebook messenger if there is an update with his pokemon go app but he was also not able to see anything in his map. I was just worried because he tried it on his way home so there could be a problem.

I am not expecting a lot though because I think the map here in the Philippines is not yet activated unlike in New Zealand, Japan and in the United States. I also heard that the game will not be released in many countries and that includes Philippines. Not sure how true this rumor is.

Although I have the games installed in my Android phone, I am still not sure how does it work. I don't even know how to catch other pokemons or fight nearby pokemon trainers in my area or buy stuff like potion, pokeballs, antidotes and more.

My roomate also tried to download it on his ASUS phone but it is not working properly because his phone has an Intel Processor and I guess pokemon go is not compatible with it.

Screenshot directly from my phone. Feeling giddy when I see it. :)

When I opened my app again, it seems that their server is experiencing issues. OMG. :(

I will try it tomorrow around BGC and let us see if it works! I will update you guys. :) If you have tried this game already, please share your experiences. Thank you!
