lol pedometer. If shaking it doesn't work, strap it onto your dog for a day, and let it run around. Get some lvl 100's.

It's probably going to be something like...every 50 steps you gain 1exp.

I would never walk for Pokemon! I'd force my friends to walk.

*Hey can I borrow Pokemon?*

Go walk your ass 10 miles and back

*k*

make it water proof so I can strap it to a triathletes ankle right before they start.
When they ask What the f**k you're doing, tell them the truth. Your becoming a pokemon master.

Decent? Continue with the math here. There's 500 steps every 2 mins, so that would equal out to 15,000 steps in an hour (?), 15,000 * 800 = ...

big bunch ole exp. also I think I read something about it giving you currency.

Actually it's 15000*8. Where did you get 800 from?

Also, that would equal out to 2400exp per day. That's kind of slow compared to actually playing the game.

Ooops. Shush lol. How does 15,000 * 8 = 2,400? lol. 15,000 * 8 hours = 120,000 exp in 8 hours overall.

...divide by 50 because I said "every 50 steps you gain 1exp."

Also, I doubt serious Pokémon players will use this because I don't think you can gain any EVs from walking...which is kind of ironic, but oh well.

This isn't the South Park where they said "Simpsons did it" k.

Well. At least I got the amount of steps in 8 hours right. xD Anyways, I doubt I would be that low though.... Actually. 120,000 steps averages how much distance?

Well if the poke walker is the similar to the day care raising in the pokemon game, every 1 step would equal 1 experience. So 1million steps to train 1 pokemon to level 100, 1,250,000 for others and etc.

5,280 feet or some sh!t in a mile and if you walk a foot every step, it would take 189.39 miles to get a pokemon to lvl 100 from 0 exp...

plz tell me i did that math horribly wrong
