Donald Trump would like to catch 'em all.

But he's busy running for president.

In an interview with the Washington Examiner on Thursday, the Republican nominee said he wishes he could join in the craze over the new smartphone game "Pokemon Go."

Asked if he's played the game, Trump said no.

"I don't, but people are playing it. No question about it," he said. "I do not. I wish I had time."

The game puts players in a virtual reality where they compete to catch and battle Pokemon creatures from around the world.

It caught on as a viral sensation in the U.S. last week with the game surpassing user engagement on both Facebook and Twitter.

More from Trump's interview with the Examiner will appear next week in the magazine's special edition for the Republican National Convention.
