Pokémon GO

The stains are temporary. Look into my eyes, for they are forever.

History

Pokémon Go is a 2016 augmented reality (AR) mobile game developed and published by Niantic in collaboration with The Pokémon Company for iOS and Android devices. The game consists of players physically travelling around to find and catch pokemon that randomly pop up on the map.

On release, the game gained a massive following but slowly fizzled out. It still has a fairly decent following by certain individuals like Chris.

Chris and the game

“	Once we got to the restaurant, [Chris] pulled out a duct tape wallet to be able to play Pokémon go on two phones at once, like any sane person.	”

As with every single new item to exist on this planet, Chris was quick to pick up the game as one of his hobbies, later stating it as proof of the Dimensional Merge. As what the game was originally marketed to do, Chris would go out and catch virtual Pokémon as any Pokémon trainer would. Chris would later photograph his Pokémon collection at his home, providing a partial tour of his residence in the process.

Observations

With the images provided of Chris's Pokémon collection, one could easily observe the current condition of his home with it. And no, it's not good. The majority of the said photos reveal Chris's derelict, abandoned back and front-yard.

As seen in one of the Celebi photos (refer to gallery below), Bob's greenhouse is overfilled with piles of Chris and Barb's hoard.
The portrait of Mewtwo reveals damaged/worn-out paint on the Chandler residence, likely the aftermath of the egging incident, showing the neglect which Chris and Barb have show to their home.
The gazebo has clearly been abandoned. Its timber is shown to be deteriorating, and the structure itself is surrounded by debris resembling wood tinder.

Relationship with the merge

“	Personally, I wish Everyone of this world, in addition to those who have already have, could Feel and fully Witness the effects of the Dimension Merge Happening, as I have. Fortunately, we do have bunches of confirmed sightings of bunches of the OCs, including Inuyasha, himself	”

It has been shown that Chris turns to the game as a sort of coping mechanism. The augmented reality abilities of the game allow virtual Pokemon to exist within the same frame as a real-life location (i.e 14 BC), further enforcing his delusion and belief of the merge.
