Pokemon GO News

On the 11th of August, a young woman, lodged a formal complaint that she has been raped by a Pokemon. She told officers that she had been sexually assaulted by a giant Pokemon in her apartment in the Russian capital city of Moscow. The married woman, whose name is unknown, had reportedly been playing Pokemon GO before she fell asleep. She claimed that she woke up to find a huge Pokemon lying on top of her body and says it was raping her. 

The woman said that the Pokemon disappeared when she jumped out of bed, but says the Pokemon GO app on her phone could still detect the same virtual character's presence on her bed. She woke up to tell her husband what had happened who told the police officers that he did not believe her and told her to see a psychiatrist. 

Russian news website Bloknot reports that the police did not believe her either and that the woman then went to see a psychic who was unable to help her. 

Ivan Makarov, the woman's friend told reporters that she told him that there are too many Pokemons at her place and even the dog can sense them. She says that the dog barks whenever she plays Pokemon GO. In the end she accepted her husband's advice, in desperation, and had booked an appointment with a psychiatrist.

In my opinion, I feel that the woman might be a bit crazy due to playing too much Pokemon GO. Pokemon GO is an iOS and Android app that was launched on July 2016 and has gained a tremendous amount of downloads. We should not play the game excessively and play it during our free time.
