Hundreds of fans in hunt for Pokémon in Birmingham
Hundreds of Pokémon fans dressed in creepy costumes and took to the streets of Birmingham as they played popular game Pokémon Go to help raise money for charity.
The special Halloween-themed Pokéwalk, inspired by and incorporating popular gaming app Pokémon Go, began in Victoria Square.
A trail of fancy dress fundraisers snaked their way around the city centre while cheering, chanting, posing for photos and surprising passers-by.
The walk took place in aid of Birmingham Children's Hospital.
After the Pokémon trainers had scoured the streets hunting for the creatures, they headed to a Halloween party at Second Cup café in New Street.
Harvey McDonald, 23, who co-organised the walk with youngsters Maya Shrestha and Harry Alimo, said: "I am blown away by the amount of people that turned out for the event.
"It's great to see so many people getting involved."
