How To Get Pikachu as Starter in Pokemon Go

Pokemon Go has been all the rage lately. I review it over here and talk specifically about how many of the things that you might not be aware are actually living in your bathroom. But did you know that if you skip the first three starter Pokemon you see popping up (by just walking by them and ignoring them) the game will give you a shot at a Pikachu starter?

I didn’t know either, which is why I check the site DidYouKnowGaming daily, and they never fail to impress. Restarted and can confirm, this does indeed work. Gotta catch ’em all,  but feels better starting with the starter we all grew up with and loved so much.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I am one of those pathetic grown men who need to play this game and catch all the moments of pure nostalgia I can before REAL old age sets in.
