Generation Neoteny...

Tom Currie worked as a barista and bartender at a seaside restaurant on the Hibiscus Coast near Auckland, but has decided to jack that in to find digital creatures on his phone instead.

What a time to be alive!

"My dad sent through a text message saying he always knew I would be famous."

Your dad can't spell 'infamous', clearly...

Tom says he will go back to work once his Pokemon adventure comes to an end.

I bet employers will be queuing up at his door.
