Maybe the hype behind Pokémon Go has subsided in your social sphere, but according to Forbes and app-centric news outlets, the app is currently pushing over $2.45 billion in revenue since its debut in 2016. Sure, the mental stimulation given by swiping is an awesome sensation for most of us, but that can be found through better experiences, like speed-reading headlines on Reddit to feel like an informed genius, flicking through various social media timelines, or swiping away bank notifications you’re too lazy to turn off. The Pokémon Go phenomenon can still be seen, though, if you’re paying attention. Just ask the Washington State Patrol.
