So that's what was really going on in the orange isles
It got sold to the Saudis months ago, surprising they did anything
"gotta catch em all" never sounded so ominous...
You could only catch Hypno on the island anyway.
Why tf is there a pokestop there. Bet epstein got them to put it there
I remember when Pokemon Go first came out and it was all the rage. I saw a couple posts online about how to make your own Pokestop for people who lived in rural areas and/or couldn't travel easily.
So personally, I'm thinking someone who was on the island (maybe even Epstein himself) just made it because they're dumb fucks who gotta catch them all.
Can't go fishing witout bait.
Anyone can set up a Pokéstop. It's just that Niantic can remove them if they feel it would be inappropriate for one to be there. They did this once before after someone posted a screenshot of a Koffing they caught at a holocaust museum.
Is lil saint Jeff considered Israeli territory at this point? Will this territory be considered a strategic position much like Taiwan?
