Pokémon Go Maps are a Green Technology, w/ Mike Ellis

Pokémon Go Maps are a Green Technology, w/ Mike Ellis

Occasionally described as "Addictive, stupidly addictive," this episode delves into the insanity that is Pokémon Go and is dedicated to the people and the technology behind mapping and catching Pokémon. Shortly after its 2016 release, Pokémon Go became the most successful game in history and, at one point, surpassed both Tinder and Twitter growth with usage time beating other social media apps.

Why does this "Got to Catch Them All!" mentality transcends technology? Is it the nostalgia? The family bonding time? Meeting new people and raiding gyms? Or is it maybe a little bit more? In today's recording, you get to hear anecdotes on family bonding, date nights, and even meeting complete strangers to talk Pokémon. Most importantly, though, you get to meet the man behind IndyPokemap.com, Mike Ellis, and learn how he turned his Poké-hobby into a greener way to play in a globally supported community!

Don't worry, this episode is teen friendly, no hacking techniques are discussed, just data personalization with gentile manners. After all, no honest mapper wanted to scan another mapper's territory. And forget server farms, this episode includes all the details of iPhone farming with a shout-out to the suffrage that occurred during the downtime when mappers were forced to switch from Python to cellphones.

A few of the Interesting inside data facts on Pokémon you will learn today include:

  • How many Poké Stops in Indy?
  • The logic behind spawn points.
  • The how to on submitting poké spots.

And, don't forget, if you enjoyed this episode, be sure to leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform and share it with a friend. Just like Pokémon Go, Raw Data by P3 Adaptive is better when shared.
