A Pokémon Go player has received a very amazing mission that takes him to a place that is not recommended if you want to avoid ending up behind bars…
Pokémon Go can take players to many different places, but sometimes it’s better to avoid going there if you want to avoid problems.
In most cities and towns, landmarks are transformed into PokéStops and in Arenas. By going to these different locations, players can collect items, find Eggs and fight for control of an Arena.
There are also popular landmarks where certain rare Pokémon appear. Many groups of trainers often gather to try to catch a Shiny for example.
Some PokéStops and Arenas in Pokémon Go are located in original locations…
But while PokéStops and Gyms usually take Trainers to tourist spots or civic parks, one netizen has shared a funny task that takes the player to an illicit location. This post has made the Pokémon Go community a bit uneasy…
A problematic mission on Pokémon Go…
Indeed, the mobile game asked the user Kanataku to head to a playground in order to complete a quest. By scanning this small park for children, the player obviously gets a reward.
However, despite this prompting, the community on Reddit quickly realized that sending an adult to take a photo of a children’s playground with their phone can seem quite amazing. Netizen Kanataku aptly expressed his apprehension by stating “No thank you, I would like to avoid prison”.
No thanks, I would like to skip prison from pokemongo
Some Internet users preferred to take this information lightly and joke a little in the comments section. A user stated in particular: “NOTDon’t forget to ask the kids if they want Rare Candies”a reference to Pokémon Go’s utility.
While this is likely an oversight on the part of the developers at Niantic, it demonstrates an issue that many Pokémon Go players are facing.
Sometimes important in-game landmarks may be inaccessible or located in special locations like local schools. Linking in-game rewards to such locations can cause problems, not only for players but also for passers-by…
The post had the Reddit community laughing, but sure parents in the area would prefer to avoid strangers wandering around a children’s playground, even if they were just dropping by to collect a Pokémon Go item…
