Video Showing How INSANE Pokémon GO Is In Montreal Right Now

When Pokémon GO came out, we started seeing photos of huge gatherings in and around Montreal Parks. But the most impressive pictures always seem to come out of the same spot.  It's no wonder this place is so popular, the area has at least 4 Pokéstops and 2 gyms.

Pokémon GO Is Uniting Montrealers Like Nothing Else Ever Has. Yes, EVER!

Oh yes, prepare your ears for yet another Pokémon GO article! However, this isn't your typical Pokémon GO article. Based on personal experience I can honestly say that Pokémon GO is bringing us Montrealer's together. Not only have I witnessed this but I have also lived it.

As more and more people are playing Pokémon Go, more and more Montrealer's are socializing with one another. Half the time the conversation goes even beyond Pokémon GO! It may seem stupid and yeah some of you will comment that this is dumb but I honestly think it's a great side effect that came along with the fun of Pokémon Go.

Ever-pressing and rife with repercussions, the choice between a grass, fire, or water-type is still made by kids and adults alike today, as Pokémon is still alive and thriving, even twenty years after its North American release.
