The characters from Pokémon Go are tired of being hunted, and strike back, doing some hunting of their own! No, that’s not the plot to some bad low-budget horror film, instead it’s a humorous video short posted by the town of Basel in Switzerland in an effort to promote Poké-tourism.
Pokémon fever is also rife in Basel. All digital monster hunters are bound to be rewarded in the historic Old Town, near the well-known sights, in many of its parks and by the banks of the Rhine. Arenas and PokéStops can be found at prominent places all over the city, for example by some of the fountains or important buildings.
A walk through the historic Old Town of Basel leads you to Pikachu, Dratini & Co. through winding alleyways past famous landmarks and monuments. They are hidden near the city gates, the Basler Münster, Mittlere Brücke and other tourist attractions.
The entire website contains Pokémon Go-related information, including special offers, free transit information, and a Pokémon festival scheduled for September 17th.
