    Hey everyone,

    Is Pokemon GO available in your App Store? How's the gameplay so far?

    Available only in the US, Australian, and New Zealand app stores. There are workarounds though.

    I've tried the workaround through APK, but nothing is happening in the game. I guess they've sorta blocked our region.

    Released in the US. I'm using a US account and able to download the app but there are no Poke'mons. I hear they enabled some region restrictions. Hope they enable PH.

    I've download the app (from the US app store). The kids have been using it, and finding Pokemons all around here in Jakarta. I'll be travelling to Manila tomorrow, and we'll see if they can still find Pokemons there.

    Posts are all over Facebook. By the time this is officially released in the Philippine App Store (iOS), the Android users have grabbed all the Pokemons already. Haha.

    It's hard! Maybe it's not meant for Phils yet.

    After "catching" the pokemons, what are we supposed to do with them? can we use them for battles?

    i think they intentionally hid the pokemons so we have no choice but to wait the app to be released here in the philippines... hehe

    and mine crashes also.... sigh.

    The esstand-by watch me capture a wild squirtel under a 10 wheeler truck.

    I had an awesome username which appears to have been deleted. Registered again with a boring porn star name. That was also deleted.

    Not signing up again until next month when the app stops crashing on my iPhone 6S.
