Niantic announces collaboration between Pokemon GO and Starbucks

| Pokemon GO

Earlier this week we all heard the rumours regarding a certain collaboration. Well, unsurprisingly they've turned out to be true and Pokemon GO is now in collaboration with Starbucks.


As of today more than 7,800 company-operated Starbucks across the USA are transforming their stores into Gyms and Pokestops, letting Trainers have a chat and play with old friends and new, recharge their batteries, and continue on their way feeling refreshed and replenished.

Not to mention that alongside the Gyms and Pokestops, Starbucks is bringing out an exclusive Pokemon GO Frappuccino. I have no idea what it is but it looks like it's a berry-ish flavour with a hell of a lot of whipped cream on top.

My fellow European ladies and gents, at this moment in time I think this deal extends to the USA currently but let's hope it catches on and heads overseas.
