Nick Johnson is the first person to announce he has collected every Pokémon in the popular mobile game Pokémon Go. That is, all 142 virtual monsters that users have confirmed seeing in the wild of North America.

So now what?

Off on an international trip to catch the Pokémon elsewhere in the world — underwritten by an international travel company.

Marriott Rewards has offered to sponsor Johnson to go to Europe, Japan and Australia to catch the regionally based Pokémon and finish his collection, he told USA TODAY Friday. A Marriott spokesman confirmed the trip.

They are probably pokestops where you can collect balls, so that would work!

I'm up to level 5, close to reaching level 6 now. Our church is a pokestop! We drove around last night collecting balls. We saw so many groups of people walking around playing. Even DH downloaded the app last night.

 It's fun, right!

And families are playing together.

I don't know which creator actually came up with this concept, but they are a genius.

So we have a park in town. Walking trails, ponds, etc. The senior center is located there, a beautiful place. Anyway, it is apparently a big place for pokemon. A neighbor was there yesterday and said even the seniors were playing. He said it was great to watch all ages interacting with each other.

It is.

It's actually bringing people together.

 I don't know what melted is. I'm not sure what is good...I have about 95 now.  The boys say Pinsir is good.  He's my strongest I think.  The boys evolved one of mine and powered up a few others.  I have no idea what I'm doing.  They are going to ask their karate instructor today battling tips.  I tried it once and lost.  They forbade me from doing it again until they consult.  LOL

 Cause it was hot at the ballpark, silly.

I haven't battled, don't know if I ever will.

I don't know how many I have.

Good to consult with experts.

What team are you?

OMG hot is an understatement. I was not a happy camper yesterday. I went over and over with DH before he bought the tickets...day game..make sure we're in shade. Yes, honey, we're in the shade. Boys wanted to sit where there were pop-ups...DH said 1st base side. No friggin way, it's in the sun all day. So DH bought on 3rd base side. Great place for pop-ups...but in direct sun. Seats were so hot it was hard to sit on them, especially for the boys. Even after the usher washed them down. Too hot through the clothes. After 1st inning, I went up under the cover. It wasn't much cooler, but at least the sun wasn't beating on me. #2 joined me shortly after and at end of 2nd inning, DH and #1 came up. I wouldn't let anyone go back to their seats until there was shade. Asked DH, where is your shade you promised? Uh, should have it in another 30 minutes. Okay, let's buy the boys ice cream and cool them off. I had my mister fans with me, which allowed me to survive, but by a hair. 4 1/2 innings later, there was shade. And this was a 4 1/2 hour game. So we eventually returned to our seats in time to watch the last couple innings where the Nats lost. Seats were still on fire, but we stood until they cooled off. Most of the people in our area had the brains to leave by now. Then there was the "kids get to run the bases" bit. DH told the boys the parking garage closed 30 minutes after game and if we didn't get to the car soon, we'd have to walk home. (This was true, too).

DH has been fired from choosing seats. Boys had fun though, and I think DH did, too. We went through at least 8 large bottles of water, and my stomach hurt me last night after we got home.

The stadium has these guards or whatever that check your tickets before they let you go to your seats. When I was dripping wet from sweat and walking up tons of stairs seeking shelter, he had the nerve to tell me I came up the wrong side...I must have given him the death stare because he put he saw my face, started to get real nervous, put his hands out to help me and said, "just for next time...just next time...it's okay, really." Nice to know I can still bring a 6"3" 250 pound man to his knees with one glance.

Funny thing was, that when #2 was walking up to join me after the second inning, he almost got hit by a pop-up fly ball. Someone reached over and stopped it from hitting him and it rolled off, only to have someone else grab it before I could get to it. #2 still says he almost "caught" that one.

I'm not a fan of sitting in the area where balls fly. That would require me to be "present" mentally, and I just want to sit there and relax in my "happy place." When I was young, I was at an Angels game when the lady in front of me was hit with a flying bat and was knocked out. People can get seriously hurt.

How many levels are there? And how do you know if you have a really good pokemon? My top one is drowzee with cp204, and ponyta with a cp of 198. Is that good?

I'm not sure the game would be any good in our small town.

Candy Crush takes enough of my time, once every three days or so.

I posted on FB a meme that a man who plays Pokémon Go needs to turn in his man card. Several agreed. lol

I have a 409 Snorlax.

The larger the number, the stronger in battle.

You don't have to fight them.

I started doing it to have something to share with my boys.

I chose the blue team.

Jesse was red, Aaron was yellow.

I didn't want to "take a side"

And now, if we want, we will be able to fight each other.

Yes.

There is a bit of "mines better" happening.

I have young drivers in the car.
