This started in 2017?

These clowns should've been fired for good 4 years ago seriously court system.

The officers pleaded guilty to not responding to the radio call but not guilty to the other counts. They denied they were playing Pokmon Go, but admitted leaving their foot beat to find the Snorlax which they alternately claimed they were doing as part of a social media event related to the game, as part of an extra patrol, and to chase this mythical creature, according to court records.

They were gonna use the Snorlax to Body Slam the robbers, clearly.

The only thing this story needs to cap it off is for a ten year old to have solved the robbery and brought the criminals to justice.

Most of the Snorlax Ive caught were hatched from eggs, I can only think of one time I saw it in the wild.

Was the Snorlax shiny? I feel like that might be a mitigating factor.

It's randomly generated during each encounter, so one or two might get it (though it's very unlikely) and the rest wouldn't

There was an event of some sort semi-recently where they became more common I think. I have a few now, including a hundo.

I checked and the only shiny in Go when this incident happened was Magikarp/Gyarados. Imagine losing your job for a regular Snorlax.

One man's loss is another man's Snorlax.
