Holy shit Pgo really was. I traded my LG lancet for an HTC One because pgo wasn't coming to windows.
And then it never fucking worked because Niantic "didn't anticipate the server load" of how many people wanted to play fuckin pokemon in the real world. That first year was a fucking shitshow. And I wouldn't trade the memories of walking around like a buffoon looking for a ghastly for anything.
I fucking loved when Pokémon go came it, it was so great, but a couple of months after it came out, I was going to the beach, and i was so excited. I figured, going to the beach, I would be swimming in water type Pokémon, then when I got there, I was like, oh, it's the same zubats at home. Never really played it after.
The HTC ONe was a gorgeous little phone. I miss it. One of my all-time faves and rock-solid build and one of the first to include an IR blaster - as the power button!
God knows what happened to it.
