Pokémon Go has got the world going crazy. Launched in July, the beta version of the free-to-play augmented reality game, allows players to capture, battle, train, and trade virtual Pokémon who appear throughout the real world via a virtual overlay.

As soon as the app went live in the United States, Australia and New Zealand, Nintendo's share price jumped, adding nearly $11 billion to the company's market value.

As with all things going viral, the debut of the app has perfectly brought out the humor in people on social media. Here are 8 of the funniest reactions:

1. Some are pointing out how easy it is to detect another #PokemonGo addict...

2. While others are proving how addictive the game actually is

3. While others are using it as an excuse to ditch plans

4. And mock year-long campaigns and efforts fighting obesity

5. Because to find those Pokemon, you actually have to leave your home

6. Some are using their date nights to find Pokemon

7. Others are humorously explaining how popular the app grew to be in such a short period of time

8. Even Pokemon GO pitched in on the humor!
