When Pokémon Go launched in Japan (and, well, everywhere), hordes of folks were playing it. The numbers of active players have dropped, but the game still has a dedicated following.

Of course, Japan isn’t alone. The game is still played and enjoyed by people all around the globe.

From November 24 to November 26, there was a Pokémon Go Safari Zone event at the Tottori Sand Dunes in Tottori Prefecture, Japan. (Similar Safari Zone events were held in Europe in September.)
