The Defense Department is asking employees to avoid downloading “Pokemon Go” on their government-issued mobile devices, but has not banned its use in government facilities.

“No the Pentagon has not banned Pokémon Go,” Pentagon spokesman Gordon Trowbridge told reporters on Friday. “I think this is perhaps a slight misunderstanding of something that I think taxpayers could understand and appreciate, which is we have asked, as we do periodically, asked Defense Department personnel to avoid putting the game and similar games, on their government-issued mobile devices. But there is no ban on Pokémon Go. And last I heard there is still a gym in the center courtyard. I’m not a player myself so I defer to others.”
