Today, I was driving with my little brother when out of nowhere he yelled at me to stop. Thinking it was urgent, I slammed my breaks, almost getting rammed from behind. Why did he yell for me to stop? The Pokémon GO said there was a sparrow near us. FML

First of yes sorry spearow. Second thankfully my brother and I are fine and the guy that was behind us is too, well aside from being beyond pisses off at me he was fine. The reason I slammed my break is because the street I was driving in is infamous for people getting hit because they run across hopping to beat the car and I though I was about to hit a little kid or an animal. When we got home I explained to him how Pokemon is not a good reason to get us kill especially for a simple Pokemon like that one. Don't get me wrong I play the game to and have had some close calls because I wasn't paying attention but none where while I was driving. I mostly walk or ride my bike to go hunting for pokémon

Gotta catch em all! Seriously though, have a talk with him about this. A sparrow is now worth stopping for.

hey everyone jumping down OP'S throat about it being Spearow and not sparrow, do you think that maybe, just maybe he was auto corrected?

Hold crap the amount of people snapping out because OP spelled the stupid character's name wrong in a lame CHILDS GAME is absolutely hilarious.

Pokemon may be a game intended for younger people, but just because you don't enjoy it doesn't mean you can call it lame, I know many teens and adults who love Pokemon, such as myself! What's lame to you is amazing to other :)

Wait, what do you mean by hunting for Pokémon? I don't play it, so this sounds a bit strange LOL.

Ok, thanks for letting me know instead of making me feel stupid over something that's not really that serious.

You can catch pokemon in a car without having to stop. As long as the person clicks on the pokemon before it disappears, the pokemon will stay on your screen while driving away. At least, that method works for me. I've caught most of my pokemon from the passenger seat of a moving car.

It was probably a Spearow. Get it right!
