Right? I'm surprised other games haven't tried tactics like this. Pokemon has been doing things like this looooong before mobile gaming was even a thing. They did something with Burger King after the release of Gold/Silver, and during the height of the card games popularity. Kids meals had a pokemon toy, but also one of several cards exclusive to the BK promo events. I also remember that once a week they'd have a "meetup" night that encouraged kids to come, hang out and battle/trade other kids with the cards and/or gameboy games. Only link I could find about it http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/1999_Burger_King_promotional_Pokémon_toys http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/1999_Burger_King_prom... > I am surrounded by people playing it here in the valley, though. I was at a concert last night, at least half the crowd was playing Pokemon GO at some point. It was insane. Someone used a lure before the show started, and you could see the mass of people moving from one side of the lawn to the other to be within the radius.
