Is Pokemon Go making comic production difficult for anyone?

[whispwill]

Is anyone else suffering this dilemma? Are there any possible remedies.... Has anyone caught a dragonite yet?

Aha my pages normally take 12-20ish hours, and instead of that I'm walking ( coughs, driving ) around to pokestops for poke balls = v =

:angry stare: Don't Pokemon and Drive!
I animate driver training courses as my day job so I don't want any one of you to end up a statistic that I later have to animate. Get a driver while you play as a passenger if you must. KEEP SAFE and keep this game safe!

I use Pokemon Go as a break between work stints. I use The Pomodoro Technique while working [25 minutes work/5 minute breaks then longer breaks after a few rounds of that]

It's been great as a reminder to stand up, walk around, and take a break. This technique also helps me get more done, really recommend it.

I don't have a Dragonite however I have many Dratinis that I'm considering for evolution for a massive Dragonite. XD

Oh I drive to the locations, I don't walk, is what I meant aha. I don't drive and play, that's what I have passengers for.

I use to use that technique but I found I get even less done as I have to find my rhythm when working, and the 25 min intervals disrupt that for me. Though your method is probably far healthier than my own aha.

And I'm jealous, there isn't a single dratini anywhere near my current location

I can't wait till friending and trading is possible in the game. I'd love to trade the pokemon I get a ton of here with pokemon that don't show up in my area XD

Ugh hell yes it is. I have been outdoors every day since I got it jogging. I have set days for Pokemon Go and days for working on my comic.

LMFAO nah, I like the game, but I'm not that additive over it. A few days back I still tried to walk back and forth between my house and the pokestop for some extra pokeball because I'm always running low on those, but now i know that just by driving downtown and walk around for 30 minutes, I will fill my bag up to the rim with pokeball and other stuff, I just take it easy now. Whenever I run low on supplies I will just make a trip downtown. Overall I only play when sis and bro want to drive me somehwere to dinner or smth, if not I still stay at home and focus on my comic!

[gateofselidor]

Not at all. There's only so much walking around in the sun I can do before I have to head home, and going for a walk makes a good break from drawing. It's new games I can play from my room that cause problems.

[whispwill]

Same! Especially the country specific pokemon!

[mariusthered]

I don't play but it gave me a good idea or two for a cartoon.

play safe kids!

I can't play Pokémon Go bc I have an ipod touch and thus can't venture outside of my house without losing my Wi-Fi signal so no, Pokémon Go hasn't made comic production difficult for me. haha

I demand a pokemon hunt in the city

[Shanny8]

Nope...coz I dont do Pokemon. Pokemon is not gonna do my comic for me, so...

[TheArgoNinja]

Nah, me getting distracted by everything is keeping me from making comics (and art in general). llD

[Kura]

Naw, my time outside the house is still limited to other people's schedules on account I'm a handicapped cripple that can't travel long distances on my own. I just have something to do on the car rides now.

[J.Z.Castillo]

there are SO MANY dratini by where I live... I am kinda tired of seeing them haha. But I usually wake up early in the morning, go for a 2-hour run/walk/hike and then come back to work. I already walk everywhere in NYC so it really doesn't dampen my comic-making schedule.

when you live in the middle of nowhere ........ and your friend keeps on sending you pokemon go screenshots...... = u =

[demthorshie]

Nope! At this time, i'm currently not involved in the Pokemon Go scene, although that might be changing in the future since my partner has been pestering me to play with him xD!

[indagold]

I haven't played a game seriously in almost 10 years. All my leisure time is making my art.

[eleoza]

I find it does get addicting.
I've been playing it for 3 days now and haven't worked on my comic. Though PokemonGO isn't the reason for it, there's a heatwave that makes it unbearable to stay in my room.
I'd rather draw than play pokemon, but it might be fun to play during breaks. Like; draw 2 hours, after that the 'reward' is playing pokemon for an hour outside or so.
