There's a dating app for everything, including Bernie supporters, double dates, and cuddlers.

@nivo0o0 Thanks Niv Dror! It was designed by Alexander Hernández, our illustrator, who is all sorts of amazing. Happy to connect you with him if you ever need freelance illustration support!

Hi everyone! Sarah from PokeDates (www.gopokedates.com) here. For a bit of background, a few years ago I founded a dating startup called Project Fixup. We set up thousands of dates, went through Techstars, got some PH love (https://www.producthunt.com/tech...), but never quite became the next Tinder and had more or less accepted that we'd go quietly into that good startup night. Last Thursday, Dank, our Chief Fixup Officer, came up with the idea for using out platform to fix people up to play Pokemon GO together. It was without a doubt the best idea Project Fixup has ever had, and we HAD to go full freaken measure. 6 sleepless days and nights later, with the help of several other amazing friends of Fixup who contributed with design, site customization, and PR, PokeDates was born. Whether you like the idea or think it's the sign that we have reached Peak Pokemon and the apocalypse is near, I'd much appreciate it if you could: 1) Post about in your #random slack channel at work 2) Mention it on Facebook to your PokemonGo loving friends 3) If you're unattached, give it a shot! Dank and I will be on Product Hunt today answering any questions you all have. Thanks all!

@afhill Sorry for my slow PH reply, has been a crazy day. But your response is my favorite of the day :). Here's to hoping we one day live in a world where every slack team has a (...HR approved) #pokedates channel.
