Anyone can become a Pokémon master.

Players of the incredibly addictive and extremely popular Pokémon Go have taken to social media to talk about their quests to be the very best, and even police officers are getting involved.

Reddit user CodyE36 shared a photo on Reddit of two cops playing the game with some folks gathered on the ground and said that they were playing the new game together.

Another user shared a screenshot of a Facebook caption that said, "When you're looking for a Pokéstop in a camp parking lot, and the cop sitting there calls over his intercom, 'It's over here.'"

User sc0rchh said, "I'm a police officer. Can confirm I placed a lure and sat there with about 10 kids catching Pokémon with them."

He even added that he uses three Growlithe, commonly used as police dogs in the series, for his team.
