領(lǐng)銜日本體操男隊出征奧運(yùn)的“全能王”內(nèi)村航平近日各種尷尬。澡洗一半熱水變涼水，機(jī)場被人叫錯名字，偶然查個話費(fèi)，賬單金額竟高達(dá)5000美元。產(chǎn)生巨額話費(fèi)的原因是這位王牌選手在里約玩起了風(fēng)靡全球的Pokémon Go。但是！盡管里約市長曾敦促任天堂在巴西發(fā)布游戲，奧運(yùn)村也并沒有小精靈可抓啊~

Japanese gymnast Kohei Uchimura apparently ran up a ridiculously expensive Pokémon Go bill after heading to Rio on July 20. However, what is really interesting is that you can’t play Pokémon Go in Rio.
日本體操名將內(nèi)村航平7月20號出征里約，卻因“口袋妖怪”游戲收獲了天價賬單。但真正有趣的是，你在里約根本抓不了小精靈。

Aside from athletes being robbed, subpar accommodations, feces in the water, and the Russian doping scandals, one of the big stories of the 2016 Rio Olympics is that you can’t catch any Pokémon in Brazil.
運(yùn)動員遭打劫、住宿水平不達(dá)標(biāo)、水里有排泄物、俄羅斯爆興奮劑丑聞，除這些外，2016里約奧運(yùn)會還有件重要的事：在巴西，你一只小精靈也逮不著。

British Olympian Joe Clarke posted a photo showing the lack of Pokémon in the area to his Twitter account:
英國奧運(yùn)選手喬?克拉克在推特上發(fā)了張圖，顯示周圍沒有小精靈：

No Pokemon in Deodoro Olympic venue! Or in Brazil!?? @NianticLabs @PokemonGoApp @Pokemon #PokemonGO

德奧多羅奧運(yùn)場館沒有小精靈！還是巴西都沒有？？@NianticLabs @PokemonGoApp @Pokemon #PokemonGO

So when you hear Uchimura ran up a 500,000 yen, or $5,000, phone bill while playing Pokémon Go, the first question you probably have is: how?
因此，當(dāng)你聽聞內(nèi)村抓小精靈而累積了50萬日元，也就是5000美元手機(jī)話費(fèi)時，可能首先會疑惑：他是怎么玩的？

Well, apparently Uchimura didn’t get the memo that there are no Pokémon to be caught in Rio, which means the gymnast must’ve been walking around building up crazy roaming charges, all while never catching anything.
好吧，內(nèi)村顯然不知道里約沒有小精靈可抓。也就是說，他肯定在四處溜達(dá)時欠下了巨額漫游費(fèi)，卻什么也沒逮住過。

Luckily for Uchimura, he was spared from having to pay the entire bill after pleading with the phone company. Instead, the company agreed to charge him a flat rate of around $30 per day and waive the extra cost, according to USA Today.
所幸的是，在向手機(jī)運(yùn)營商解釋之后，內(nèi)村不必支付全額賬單。據(jù)《今日美國》報道，運(yùn)營商同意只收取他每天30美元的固定費(fèi)用，免除了額外收費(fèi)。

“I really lucked out,” Uchimura told Kyodo News, a Tokyo based news company.
內(nèi)村告訴日本共同社：“我真算是走運(yùn)了?！惫餐缡强偛课挥跂|京的新聞機(jī)構(gòu)。

For all the other Olympians going to Rio, let Uchimura serve as a lesson. Keep the Pokémon Go app closed while you’re in Brazil. There is nothing to catch.
里約的其他奧運(yùn)選手還是從內(nèi)村這兒吸取教訓(xùn)吧。在巴西時把《口袋妖怪Go》的軟件關(guān)掉。并沒什么可抓的。
