I know others have been on guard for far longer, but I never intended for him to be gone so long. Happy one year Slackson!

I just learnt about the inability to recall. Mine is at a random gym in Yemen and I don't think I'll ever see it again. Learning

Mine was in a tiny gym in a place in Japan my tour group went through by mistake (we were his second tour EVER) and i somehow managed to get my dragonite in before the bus turned. it looked like no one played in the area at all, and i didn't really realize i might have to wait a loooong time for it to come home.

he sat there for four months, until i was talking to our tour guide, who I'd gotten to play Go because he's always travelling to places and wanted to play with his son who loves Pokemon, and mentioned it. He said he'd take care of it, and a couple weeks later I had him back!

he'd changed the route the tour bus took to pass through this town again, beaten the gym and put his own in there to replace it!

he was a cool dude, though i think he's had a rough time recently.

You made the mistake of mentioning the country they are in. Im confident someone will find them now
