Boston has a really impressive—and sortable—Pokemon Go map
Searching for Dragonites in Allston? This map has you covered.
It’s already well documented how Pokemon Go—the mobile augmented reality game that is sweeping the nation, for better or worse—has particularly taken off in Boston.
And now, for those searching for Pokemon inside the I-95 belt, there’s an impressive Google map confirming all the locations where the fictional creatures have been caught.
The map, named “Gotta Catch’em All” shows more than 500 spots where Pokemon have been caught, as well as “markers for rumored sightings and high-traffic lures,” according to the gaming website Polygon. It is also “the densest map we’ve seen specifically for catching Pokémon,” they said.
Not only is the map scalable, allowing users zoom in on select areas, but it also allows users to filter catch locations by the type of Pokemon or how rare they are, just in case you want to take a trip to Malden and fetch a Snorlax.
