Is Pokémon Go a case of the characters leaving the game world and manifesting irl or that our planet and universe is made by Arceus?
 
Travel between the real world and the virtual world of Pokémon with
devices. With Pokémon GO, you'll discover Pokémon in a whole new world—your own! Pokémon GO gives you the chance to explore real locations and search far and wide for Pokémon. More and more Pokémon continue to appear around the globe, including rare and powerful Legendary Pokémon.
I'm even more confused. What do you think?
 
no, it only exists inside our devices. That's just the nature of augmented reality. don't think too much about it
 
The idea of Pokémon Go is that Pokémon have suddenly appeared in the real world.


The And several promotional materials confirms that.

Such As the various UB sightings




As well as Team Rocket appearances

 
The issues here, is that I don't know what to make of it. There are 2 things

1. Game and anime material becomes fiction, as that world is literally the world we live in. This comes with a lot of baggage, like plots hax R>F difference. The tiering system as a whole being in our world, etc

2. It's a serious version of 4th wall
 
Real life actor acting on fiction doesnt make it real world part of it.

Again you're thinking too much about an AR game.

AR game character or promotional character acting in real life doesn't make it part of real world. If we follow that logic almost idol games would have r>f over their own games for being able to existing our real via AR function or having their character acted out by their seiyuu
 
Well, you miss the point. Pokémon Go idea is that Pokémon are in Real Life

Literally the closest thing to fiction interaction with reality.

So it makes sense in this context . Even their official Twitter was hacked by Team Go
Rocket.
