Now, this is an interesting topic, but this particular image is the one I find most cringe worthy, and I hope is not real.



The article mentions this, it's a Pokemon that apparently emits a gas, and it's in a room where there are testimonials of gas chamber survivors.

Koffings are found in cities. The museum is in DC, hence the fact that Koffings will be found in buildings in DC. Besides the "poke stops" (landmarks based on images on google maps), there is no distinction for what building you are in when you play the game.

This is just an unfortunate coincidence.
