So much for being nothing more than a fad. The Pokémon Company has a series of videos in Japanese noting that Niantic's location-based mobile game has been downloaded over 1 billion times since launch. Some of those are re-downloads, and it's not clear how many players are active (Superdata 147 million monthly users as of May 2018). All the same, it's an achievement for a game many thought might fizzle out after a few months.
