Melbourne has been completely overtaken by Pokemon Go mania!

If you haven’t started playing yet, basically Pokemon Go is an “augemented reality” game for iOS and Android where you need to walk around in the real world to capture Pokemon on your phone. 

Melbourne has immediately become a Pokemon Go obsessed city, with people taking to the streets to try and catch ‘em all. 

If you’re having trouble tracking down certain Pokemon, then you need to turn your attention to the Pokemon GO Map.

This is a global map created by some Pokemon fans, but the Melbourne section is incredibly detailed with Pokestops and Pokemon Gyms marked.

Even better, people have been adding in the Pokemon they have caught in certain places.

Check out the map here.

You'll need to check out multiple areas of Melbourne to find different types of Pokemon. Unsurprisingly you'll have better luck catching a water Pokemon if you're on the banks of the Yarra or near Port Phillip Bay!

These are some of the key locations in Melbourne for catching Pokemon.
