Install some programs

I only tested on Linux, but running on windows should not be a problem.

Create this folders in home dir (~/.pokemon/ and ~/.pokemon/logs):

mkdir -p ~/.pokemon/logs

In ~/.pokemon create config.json and puts your email info:

		"filter":{
			"names": [ "dragonite", "snorlax", "lapras" ]
		}
	},
	"places": {
