Hard disagree. It got me walking around and exploring my town. It got me in contact with other Pokemon fans. It's added an extra layer of reality on top of everywhere I go - vacations become rare opportunities for indiginous species hunting, which in turn become valuable trade offers.

Exercise is now a game, and I would otherwise be in front of a PC screen.
