Dummy. Better than getting poisoned or robbed like some of the other teams though.

If the carrier doesn't rob you by iPhone, an accommodating local will rob you of it.

Looks like a superstud ( obviously, he IS ), but still the mind of a child.

WOW!!! People seem to have missed the point that it's still around $900 USD for one month of roaming charges on top of your regular month plan rate. The roaming charges are still a rip off anyway you slice it.

Getting that Pokemon Gold for sure.

Roaming charges are idiotic rip-offs in the first place.

I am sure the carrier must have been SoftBank. I was charged 2000 USD as roaming charges for use in India for 5 days

Pokemon's not the only thing you'll catch if you go roaming in Brazil
