Pokémon alive and kicking in Randfontein!

Players came from all over Randfontein for the first ever Pokémon Go Randfontein Community Day.

On Sunday, 15 September, a number of people got together at Uncle Harry’s Roadhouse for the first ever PoGo-Randfontein Community Day.

According to Stefanie Wolfaardt, founder of PoGo-Randfontein, a total of 26 fans as young as six and as old as 51 arrived to have some fun, and made the day a huge success.

She explained, “With the fifth generation Pokémon to be released soon, Pokémon Go (also known as PoGo), is still a worldwide number one grossing game on PlayStore. And right here in Randfontein, we have our own community of players.

New players join almost daily as they discover the world of Pokémon within Randfontein and we’re looking to grow our numbers to take on other regions within the West Rand with PvP battles. We implore people to join us for our community days and become new members.”

Every month, PoGo-Randfontein will be having a community day, for which you can pre-register and join in the fun.
