Our subreddit is trying to catch 'em all. They've certainly caught a lot, currently 504, but we keep adding more so it's a moving target.
The total as of this post is 594.
I'm the one personally adding them in my spare time just for fun and I recently did a Duck Tales episode (our new podcast) with more details on the process.
