But obviously some sightings are rarer than others - you only have to see the reaction of gamers when a Gyarados reared its head in Central Park, New York.
Some Pokemon are also a shite sight harder to catch than others, as you've also probably discovered when lobbing augmented reality Pokeballs around with heartbreaking futility.
But Redditor Jordansw has put together a supposedly definitive chart showing some of the hardest Pokemon to catch and some which are rare as rockinghorse shit.
You're probably not going to be surprised to see that ones like Pidgey and Zubat popping up more often than the latest Paul Pogba rumour.
But in terms of rarity the likes of Meowth(0.39 per cent), Ponyta and Machop (o.46 per cent) are among the hardest to find. But there's one Pokemon above all others that's an absolute swine to catch...if you ever find one that is.
Not only does Jordansw claim that it has a 0.36 per cent chance of coming across one, but then it has an infuriating 99% flee rate. As he points out you could throw a pokeball at one 100 times and only catch one once.
Good luck with that one...
TIL Abra has a Flee % of 99. That means 99 out of 100 times if Abra breaks free from your pokeball, it's going to run from pokemongo
