Of the 136 percent increase, men were 62 percent more likely to search for naughty Pikachu than women. Apparently playing with balls all day makes you want to go home and play with your balls.
Non surprisingly, 18 to 24 year olds were 336 percent more likely to search for Pokémon porn, compared to 25 to 34 year olds, who were 47 percent less likely.
And for some reason, Android users were 51 percent more likely to search for Pokémon compared to vanilla iOS users.

Pornhub uses Google Analytics to access its data which uses affinities that determine likely interests based off users' previous Google searches and internet activity. Using that data, Pornhub found that adventure and strategy, roleplaying and action gaming fans were among the most likely to search for Pokémon when it came time to flick the old bean.

Although Pokémon Go has only been released in the United States, Australia and New Zealand at the time of writing, Central and South America seem to be anxiously awaiting its release.
