Solberg has reportedly been a fan of the game for quite a while, even boasting to reporters during an official trip to Slovakia that she was excited to "hatch" some of her 10km eggs--which contain some of the games' rarest Pokemon.
Erna Solberg was pictured playing the game during a debate in the Storting on Tuesday. It’s no secret Solberg is a big fan of Pokémon Go. During an official trip in Slovakia, she took some time out to play the game, telling reporters she was keen to hatch some of her 10km eggs.
While I'll be the first to admit that Pokemon Go is a really fun game and is decently addictive, there's a time and a place for everything. And that time and place definitely isn't parliament when things are happening.
