Pokemon Go Fans Trespassed Canadian Military Base in 2022

Iii years back, Pokémon Go was the craze amidst people regardless of the age group. The AR game made people go outdoors, exploring places in search of virtual Pokémons. It appears like Pokémon Go fans went a step farther and did any it takes to find a new Pokémon – even if it meant trespassing a military base.

Yeah, you read that right. Pokémon fans trespassed the Canadian war machine in 2016 to notice new Pokémon. The Canadian Department of National Defence (DND) had issued a warning refraining people from entering the base of operations but at that place was no stopping the fanatics. CBC News had requested the documents describing the incident. And now, almost 3 and a half years later, the Canadian Defence section has disclosed information.

"Please suggest the Commissionaires that manifestly Fort Frontenac is both a PokéGym and a PokéStop. I will be completely honest in that I have not idea what that is," wrote Major Jeff Monaghan in the documents.

Interestingly, at to the lowest degree three military officers were assigned a task that they would've never expected in their military career — finding Pokémons. These officers wandered around the military machine base with smartphones or notepads to locate and annotation down PokeStops and PokeGyms.

The struggle to notice Pokémons was real to the point that a security good at the Canadian Forces Base reportedly said, "we should almost rent a 12-year-old to aid us out with this."

Afterwards gathering information almost the possible PokéStops and gyms, CFB North Bay, one of the military bases filed a complaint with Pokémon Go's development house Niantic.

In the meantime, some officials were non hostile almost the visitors. At CFB Petawawa, the major PokéStop was at the Garrison Museum, which increased the number of visitors to the museum. So, the officials at CFB Halifax recommended removing PokéStops at places with "security risks" and encouraged adding PokéStops at museums.
