    I think it does it on the gps? Cause if you go too fast like in a car it stops counting or something?

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    Its distance, yeah, most phones don't have a built in pedometer.

    Yup. All GPS linked.

    Also, if you're going too fast, Pokémon don't even appear. Any faster than a high jogging pace, and nowt.

    It also doesn't count as distance travelled for egg hatching, the stop starting of my above ground train ride to work usually works out as about 500m. I do see the occasional monster at the stations though!

    That's annoying, I wanted to use it for cycling. :|

    Probs worth giving it a try - certainly if the coach picks up speed, nothing shows.

    If you're going at the steady sort of pace you'd do in areas with pedestrians, you're fine. If you're doing the sort of speed where you're keeping up with proper road traffic, it may not.

    Might work then. If they ever bring it onto Windows Phone. :P

    Nearly caught a Starmie at lunch

    Gonna take the long route back to my bus stop to get the coach home - in theory, it should be enough to hatch three of my eggyweggs.
