We Asked You to Caption This Photo and the Winner Was Hard to Pika-Choose

In this new photo series, we're collecting some of our favorite photographs and want your help captioning them. Every week, we'll throw a new photo up on our Instagram and cull the best captions that capture the current mood.

This week, we're taking you all the way back to the summer of 2016, when people all over the globe left their common sense behind to catch rare Charizards or whatever playing Pokémon Go, getting stabbed and falling into bodies of water in the process. This photo, however, captured by photographer Julian Master, caught a real Pikachu out in the wild concrete jungle.
