OXFORD Bus Company is encouraging Pokemon GO hunters to board the buses to help them 'catch 'em all'.

The operator posted an advert on its website enticing fans of the smartphone app.

It said: "Tired of running out of data on your smartphone? Tired of pacing up and down the same streets and coming across the same Pokemon? Tired in general from all of the walking?

"With bus routes giving you access to the whole city, it's easier than ever to catch Pokemon and with free WiFi on all of our buses you don't need to run out of data on your smartphone"

Prices for a one-week pass on the bus start from £11 with an 24 hour cityzone day pass costing £3.60.
