In the scorching summer of 2016, a phenomenon swept the globe, captivating the hearts of millions – Pokémon Go. While my childhood didn’t include Pokémon adventures, like most folks alive at the time, I too succumbed to the allure of this mobile sensation. Joining as a member of the yellow team, I embarked on my Pokémon Go journey, reaching level 10 before my initial obsession fizzled out around August. In 2021, two of my friends, “VintageFlarion” and “Pauletteyuliana,” coaxed me back into the game and convinced me to switch from the yellow team to Team Valor, the red team, to join them in defending a gym at the hotel where I worked in Orlando. Their relentless enthusiasm marked the rekindling of my Pokémon Go addiction.
In addition to my gaming journey, I’ve also taken on the role of an official Niantic Wayfarer, contributing to the broader Pokémon Go and Ingress community. As a Wayfarer, I assist in the review and approval of new PokéStops and Gyms, helping shape the virtual landscape that millions of players explore every day. It’s an exciting way to give back to the Pokémon Go community and connect with fellow trainers on a deeper level.
So, here’s to the unexpected and enduring Pokémon Go adventure that has become a part of my life, all thanks to the red banner of Team Valor and the relentless enthusiasm of my friends.
As my Pokémon Go adventure continues, I’ve also started a dedicated page on this website to share my journey and connect with fellow trainers. Feel free to add me as a friend and join in on the adventure! So, here’s to the unexpected and enduring Pokémon Go journey that has become a part of my life, now continuing down here in Brazil.
