Yeah, I am really wanting to get conversation going about contacting them to work on the Pokémon Go app specificly.
To make this accessible wouldn't be a huge effort, at least as far as I understand. They already use vibrations for other things, so making it vibrate differently to let you know which direction the pokemon is wouldn't be a big update. Also, some audio or vibration alerts to let you know how far the pokemon is away from you, so you can flick the ball towards it wouldn't be that difficult either.
