RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — For some at the Rio Games, there's gold, silver and bronze.
Or perhaps there's Golduck, Shellder and Bulbasaur.
Pokemon Go — which has been available in some parts of the world, including the United States, for about a month — has just now arrived in the Olympic host city of Rio de Janeiro. Available this week in Brazil for the first time, not coincidentally on the eve of the Rio Olympics, the game involves players using their smartphones to track down the virtual creatures.
"I've never run this much in my life," said Gabriela Alves, a Rio native who had her phone out and was collecting Pokeballs — a key component to the game — in downtown Rio on Thursday.
