Firaga 5,947 Posted July 8, 2016 Article I just want to let you know that I'm holding back a tasteless "Fainted" joke right now. It's been a while since I posted about random/strange news story relating to gaming that I just happened to run into. And although, it's not about bodily fluids or people getting their dicks chomped off... it's around that general area in the creepy and/or disgusting factor. So yeah... dead body. In a river. While playing Pokemon Go... what's the deal with that? 1 Oli reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robbie the Wise 5,050 Posted July 8, 2016 Nintendo is secretly turning us into detectives... but seriously that's gonna leave a scar for that kid. 5 Sendou Aichi, Firaga, Moochieh32 and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dio Brando 5,810 Posted July 9, 2016 Poor kid,he probably went to the river hoping to find a Water type Pokemon but instead ended up discovering a corpse that would've traumatized me for life if I was at his age and saw this 1 Moochieh32 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted July 9, 2016 Oh wow, for real? That's messed up! I bet that poor kid must be looking at his Pokemon Go game with fear now! Like seriously, he's probably creeping out because he found a dead body by playing the game! But more curious though...is the river the kid was wandering around even safe? Cuz if that dead body was there, then that's not a good sign! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catmaster0116 2,676 Posted July 9, 2016 Yikes...Thats really sad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moochieh32 676 Posted July 9, 2016 Well that's gonna leave a mark... I do feel bad for the girl it isn't her fault, nor the game's. This is a thing that just... happened. Nothing much to say here other than feel extremely sorry for her to see that... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Veemon 1,540 Posted July 9, 2016 I heard about this... Isn't that just awful? I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought about this, but Pokemon Go could be used for serious crimes. Think about it: Someone could easily use the game as a way to find out where lots of people/kids can gather and just go there to kidnap them, kill them, etc. And not just the navigator itself, but if one were to get themselves caught-up in the game so much, they could get hit by an incoming car, especially if they go out at night where only specific Pokemon appear at nighttime. I know it's a dark and scary thought, but it's the truth, isn't it? Whether this incident is connected to Pokemon Go or not, this game will lead to certain disaster in many areas.

Weedanort 8,786 Posted July 9, 2016 Be thankful that nobody has died yet due to Pokémon Go (Hopefully at the time of writing this) That would shock anyone, not just kids Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KH4Real 749 Posted July 9, 2016 Yeah for a moment I though the player found a player from Poké Go. But who would die for catching a Poké while swimming. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's big but the same plan could be devised with the other games that use that type of method. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
