And they did an amazing job at that, people I didnt even imagine to be Pokemon players are out and about hunting for Pokemon and even people who didnt like it are trying it out for the first time.

Ah I see.  Yeah, it's definitely nothing short of amazing, what they've managed!

Unfortunately there's no easy way to verify the claim.  I would've expected "piracy" to be rather low, for such a casual oriented game.  And piracy is just generally an easy scapegoat to lay blame on.
(not sure if this is exactly piracy, as it's more like a grey import; at least in Australia, using geo-unblocking tools is considered legal (though contract law may get affected; ahh, the joys of laws))
