Taiwan's "Uncle Pokémon" Rides Bike with 64 Phones to Play Pokémon GO


What began as a simple birthday gift from his grandson at age 66 blossomed into a full-blown obsession for Taipei's Chen San-yuan. Known globally as "Uncle Pokémon," he turned heads online years ago with six phones mounted on his bicycle, gradually expanding his setup to an astonishing 64 smartphones spread across his handlebars.


Chen reportedly plays up to 20 hours a day, spending over $1,200 monthly on in-game items, mobile data, and power banks to fuel his intense hobby. Today, he remains a local legend in Taiwan, cruising city streets behind a glowing wall of screens that looks like a mini stadium scoreboard.


Most trainers catch 'em all on a single device, but Chen operates a whole fleet simultaneously, redefining extreme dedication to gaming.
