MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The augmented-reality game took the world by the storm after its release in early July. It requires a player to catch "pocket monsters," which appear on the screen if the user is in the right location. A total of 151 types of Pokemons are "running wild around the world" but six particularly rare ones have not yet been spotted.
"Russian operators have not<…> received requests to send fans on monster hunts yet. But we are ready to seize the opportunity created by this Pokemon-mania and send fans on individual tours," ATOR said in a statement.
