We want to believe him, but our jealousy won't let us!

Pokémon Go has been slowly ruining enriching our lives for several weeks now and, with over 140 little monsters to get your hands on, many of them very rare, it should keep us entertained for the foreseeable future.


However, one Reddit user claims they have already managed to capture all 142 Pokémon available to US users, posting screenshots from his Pokedex online to prove it.

Nice work...if it's true. I mean, our photoshop skills are pretty basic but we reckon we could put that shot together in a couple of hours!

Although, to be fair, user ftb_hodor does justify his claim with details on how he got there, covering 95 miles across the states to get all the creatures. And he admits that he hasn't seen any of the truly rare breeds such as Mew or Ditto and he has yet to travel outside the US to grab the varieties exclusive to other continents.

He also gave us all a peek at his highest CP levels and the guy looks like a pretty legit battler too.

Nice work!

So, if you have the time and the energy, it looks like you really can catch 'em all. Or, if you're lazy like us, just use these screenshots to fool your friends. They'll never notice, we promise.

How many have you caught so far? Let us know below.
