Most fanatical GO player you've seen
Whose the most fanatical go player you've ever seen?
The most fanatical i've seen is a guy from my old town, that i moved from last month. He travels to a big city for about eight hours a day doing raids and catching Pokemon. He once traveled 200 miles because he thought there was a dratini nest somewhere. He was doing this before raids came out, he's totally devoted to GO. He reached level 40 before raids appeared and you could just buy your way up the levels. I'm not sure anyone else in my old town was even playing GO before raids appeared but that didn't stop him.
As far as i'm aware he has no other interests. He does have a girlfriend but i think he just uses her for sex, his true love is Pokemon afterall. At one point he said he started going to the gym (one with dumbbells not Pokemon) complete waste of time. No way he was going to stick to that with his GO addiction.
Me and him don't get on, as you might be able to tell by the disdainful way i speak about him. Anyway, whose the biggest Go fanatic you've met?

I've seen someone raid with five phones. Their local Instinct group here in So Cal shares all their logins, so they can have just one member do raids for a bunch of them, and flip and stack gyms with defenders from their group. They are also a bit on the agro side, and many other players in the area want nothing to do with them.
I think I'd call that over the top game devotion.
He's probably not all that fanatical compared to a lot of people, but the one level 40 player around here (who once took a trip 2000 miles away just for the sake of accessing different regionals) has an obnoxious attitude occasionally. Just a few days ago, he jumped into a conversation to give me a hard time with sarcastic and mocking comments after I mentioned to someone else that I don't spend money on this game. I wasn't even criticizing people who do spend money, just saying that part of the game to me is to achieve everything I can with only what I can earn within the game itself, after someone asked me why I hadn't maxed out both my storage upgrades yet.
Another time he started angrily chewing me out because I said I didn't want to bike 12 miles in the rain to do a raid right then. He's also the guy who followed me around one time in the old gym system, kicking me out of every gym I went to the instant I left, so I couldn't even collect 20 coins for that day.
