So all I have to do is make a fake app to get some side money?

Whoever let this through is getting shit canned.

The ratings are pretty hilarious, with people threatening to sue for scamming because the app just closes as soon as it opens.

According to the comments the app doesn't even work once you buy it. Just a scam.

I was under the impression that all apps had to pass some sort of screening before getting put on the store?

Anyway, if these people really liked Pokemon, they would know Nintendo's stance on mobile phone/tablet gaming, had seen that Nintendo didn't publish it, and not been a dollar poorer.

That's what I thought too. I thought Apple screened everything before it went onto the store. But this fake app is number two best selling of the day and number 7 in top grossing titles of the day. It's kinda like that Baby Shaker app that went through a few years ago and even the version of MAME that popped up and vanished within a few hours. I just checked before I went to type this and it's STILL on there. Guess their all off, being President's Day and all.

Well I checked and they FINALLY took it down. Wonder how many people were stupid enough to buy it.

Plenty according to the comments. I was LOLing at the "please fix the crashing" comments. Pokemon for $1, really?!?

The only screening Apple does is screening for things that (potentially) hurt Apple's brand-image and/or bottom-line. It's nice being a legal Monopoly.

that's what you guys get for going with Apple over Android.

speaking of Pokemon though, it's b.s. that we have to park our cars places. i want to keep it as a ball in my pocket until i'm ready to drive somewhere.
