Pokemon Go Gladiators Battle Outside Rome's Colosseum

Description

Rome's Colosseum went back to its ancient combat roots on Sunday, as hundreds of Pokemon Go players from across Italy and the world massed outside the landmark to battle each other and find out who among them had trained the strongest pocket monsters. The Colosseum also turned into a virtual hunting ground after the game led droves of players to the world famous landmark in search of rare Pokemon.
