LOOK: Justin Bieber plays Pokémon Go at NY park

Not all ordinary people are spared from obsession brought by the smash-hit game Pokémon Go – even pop singers can’t help but embrace the trend of catching pocket monsters.

On Sunday, hundreds of American “trainers” gathered at the Central Park in New York to catch Gyarados, a rare Pokémon, Billboard reported. One of those faces in the crowd was Justin Beiber, who was also in town to prepare for his upcoming Purpose tour at Madison Square Garden.

Social media users posted pictures of them “catching” the “rare Pokémon”.
