Man loses 2 stone playing Pokémon Go

A father-of-four has lost two stone after walking the equivalent of five marathons as he became the first person in the UK to catch all of the Pokémon Go characters available in the country.

Sam Clark has posted a video on YouTube showing his haul of 143 of the virtual characters which he found while playing the hit game.

The 32-year-old, a founder of Cyberjam Gaming in Southampton, Hampshire, wrote in his video description: “I think this to be the first full set in the UK but I could be wrong.”
