MENOMONEE FALLS, Wis. -- A Menomonee Falls man says he has captured all 142 Pokemon characters in the popular game, Pokemon GO.

If he's correct, he is possibly only the second person in the world to accomplish the feat.

His name is Sean Nettesheim, and according to a report by WISN 12, he works as a leasing agent at this apartment complex in Menomonee Falls, but in his free time, he's become a "Pokémon Go" master.

“The last one I needed here was Grimer,” he told WISN 12 NEWS on Tuesday, two days after his final catch. “As far as I know, only one other person in the world has caught them all, so I was pretty pumped."

According to WISN, he showed the app on his phone to prove that he has in fact captured every single one.

According to Nettesheim, Lake Park is the place to be.

Lake Park, by the way, has seen its share of controversy after the eastside Milwaukee park was apparently overrun by Pokemon GO players, prompting area residents to call for tighter regulation of gameplay at the park.

The county is demanding that the creators of Pokemon GO remove all stops from all county parks in order to comply with area ordinances.
