For me this game came to a natural psychological end point when I completed my dex . Beyond that it ' s true what you say , there ' s really no coherent goal . For many people the gym game has an inherent kind of fun of its own , but for me that kind of died after the nerf . I still play though but kind of out of inertia . also I happened to hatch my first two 100 %' ers ever , a Bulbasaur and a Charmander , so now I kinda want to evolve those two . I expect though that I ' ll shelve the game soon . till gen 2 comes out I love how POGO gets me on long walks though so I keep it running when I ' m out just for that reason alone . I thought I ' d try geocaching or birdwatching as well , since apparently I really enjoy a reallife scavenger hunt . There ' s nothing wrong with putting aside a formerlybeloved game when it ' s run its course and no longer feels rewarding . It ' s not a negative thing , really . Some games just run their course and then you move on .
