As a lawyer, this is a pretty standard clause. Arbitration clauses don't "strip you of your rights," they just force you to resolve conflicts through arbitration (mediation with an impartial third party to come to a mutually agreeable conclusion) rather than suing directly in court. And honestly, I don't know what they're saying about "have the resources" to come before an arbiter, they seem to be anticipating that this could rule out a class action? Going to court is also insanely expensive. This article is pretty irresponsibly written, and I'm surprised that anyone would bother reporting on this -- it's more PoGo sensationalism, I guess. Here's an article about the kinds of things you agree to all the time without reading them.
Thanks! :) Your reply made me decide! :P I'm going to get the game as soon as possible when it becomes available in my country! :!: :lol: :P :)

does picking a certain team do anything to the pokemon you catch in particular? might just be a coincidence, but my friend and I are level 7 and level 8 respectively on the game. She's Team Valor and I'm Team Instinct. However, when we both go to catch the same pokemon, it'll spawn for me as CP 15 or so and she gets it at CP 205. So since Valor is supposedly more focused on strength, does that mean they can catch higher level pokemon, and since Instinct was about egg hatching, I hatch higher level pokemon? And i suppose for Mystic they might evolve to a really high level? Has anyone noticed or was I just overthinking it, lol?

afaik team doesn't affect the CP. Almost everyone I know is in valor including me and sometimes I get CP 10 while they get like CP 200, so I think it's random. I'm actually pretty curious about what determines CP.

The great thing about pokemon go imo is that it's getting all of my friends to play it with me. I'm usually the "geek" of the friend group so I really like having people to freak out about pokemon with. And also it's turned me into the active one and all my friends are confused XD.

I thought your level influenced CP? So like, the higher you go, the higher chance of higher 'mons? You still get 10cp time to time but you progressively start getting my higher ones.

As for now, team does not affect anything except of the team leader and the legendary bird mascot. It might affect which legendary birds you can get in future update, but so far it's only speculation.

Your character level influenced CP. From Level 20 onwards, Pokemon with high CP can be encountered. Unfortunately, they are also waaaay harder to catch and it's kinda infuriating.

CP is a bit random but is mostly determined by level. Myself (Mystic lvl 22), my husband (Valor lvl 23), and friend (Mystic lvl 23), all go hunting together but my husband and friend generally get Pokemon of the same higher level CP than me.

I'm really enjoying this game! I chose team mystic because my sister and friend were on it but I really want to be on team instinct. :/ I haven't battled any gyms yet because none of my pokemon are powerful enough. I'm only level ten.

Pro tip: if you live in a city go downtown. There are likely going to be tons of pokestops and a bunch of people there who are probably going to be using lures. You'll have gotten plenty of pokeballs and razzberries from the pokestops and some nice pokemon will be attracted to the lures.

I've been playing GO a bit recently, but there aren't very many pokestops in my area unless I want to head all the way to down town. Still, it's fun to turn it on every now and then and just snack up whatever pokemon are lurking around my neighborhood.

I'm hooked on GO. I'm finding that if I have any chance to get out of the house I'll go. :lol: I need my Pokemon!
I'm also visiting relatives out-of-state right now, so we keep comparing what Pokemon we've caught, and I'm hoping to catch some different ones. :)
Also, Team Mystic FTW.

I haven't been playing as much as I was in July, since I was interning in the city then, but have been playing when I can still. The nice thing is my boyfriend is moving out, and his apartment has two pokéstops within reach, so we can spam them while hanging out there together. Plus, I think there is a spawn point nearby, and there are lure mods at at least one of the stops pretty often, so we can catch quite a few pokémon there, too.

My fiancee and I played Pokemon Go in the lobby of our hotel in Lima. There are two lures nearby and we caught Omanyte, Cubone, Diglett, Growlithe, Clefairy, Scyther, and Machop just sitting here. Lima is LIT for Pokemon Go 8D
