The hype surrounding Pokémon Go has seemingly died down somewhat, but Pokébants is still alive and well.

This lad, Jonathan Hughes, managed to catch a Muk in Marks & Spencer in Liverpool, presumably waiting for his girlfriend to try on clothes, or had chased it in from the high street.

Seeing a great opportunity, Jonathan reported that he'd found Muk in M&S, submitting a satire complaint to the store's Twitter page.

What he probably didn't expect was Marks and Sparks to reply to his Pokémon humour with even more pocket monster banter, but they did. This then turned into a thread that we can all appreciate.

I've got a lot of time for this.

Well played all round.
