Pokemon GO is certainly unleashing the entrepreneur in us. Recently we heard about drivers who are willing to drive gamers around and take them to Pokemon GO hot spots and gyms that they might not be familiar with. However if you’re too lazy to bother catching your own Pokemon, how about letting someone else do it for you?In a post on Craigslist, a woman by the name of Ivy St. Ive has offered her professional Pokemon GO trainer services where for $20 an hour, she will go around town catching Pokemon on your behalf with your account. She claims to be a lifelong Pokemon enthusiast which apparently makes her qualified for this job. She has also played “Pokémon (both cards and gameboy/DS) since 1997 and Pokémon Go since its opening day.”
According to her post it reads, “My services are simple: I will walk around in 1-4 hour shifts signed in to your account capturing every single Pokémon I come into contact with, activating every Poke Stop I pass and walking nonstop to help hatch your eggs. I’ll even send you hourly updates while you’re at work/class/on a hot date informing you of any really exciting things I’ve come across for you. Pokémon training help, gym battles and strategy tips are also included, if requested.”
In a way it sounds like you’re almost botting Pokemon GO via a human proxy. We’re not sure if this is such a good idea considering that we have also heard of robbers using Pokemon GO to lure their victims to them, but we guess if you’re too lazy or busy but want to show off your impressive collection of Pokemon to your envious friends, this could be one way of doing that.
