Pokemon Go Adds Ability to Use Promo Codes

pokemongopromo
Pokemon Go has quietly added a new feature to the game: the ability to use promotional codes. Players with Android phones who enter the shop will notice a box to enter promotional codes, although no codes have been revealed yet.
According to Pokemon Go's support page, players can enter promotional codes to redeem items like Poke Balls, Lure Modules, and Lucky Eggs. We don't know how the codes will be distributed, but the page mentions that they'll be part of future events and promotions with corporate sponsors like Sprint, McDonald's, or Starbucks.
Right now the promotional codes only work on Android phones, as there's apparently still some legal issues to work out with Apple. Since Apple takes a cut of every in-game transaction, some fans think that Niantic could run into trouble if they charge sponsors for running some sort of in-game promotional code.
Players haven't figured out if Pokemon Go will use generic codes that anyone can redeem, or if they'll be some sort of code unique for each player. However, if the ability to redeem codes are live, we'd expect some sort of giveaway or promotion in the very near future.

For Your Pokémon GO Mew Hunt, Here's Which Gen 1-3 Pokémon Can Be Ditto Now

Niantic Pokemon GO While the first Mews are already being collected by die-hard Pokémon GO fans, for most of us, the journey is going to take quite a bit longer . While the first few steps of the Mew “Special Research” quest are pretty easy, eventually, you’ll start running into a few walls like having to evolve a Gyarados or land an excellent curve throw (skill dependent, of course). But one of the “gates” is mostly based on luck. Professor Willlow seems to think Mew is disguising itself as other Pokémon, so it wants you to catch a Pokémon who can also do that. And you guessed it, that’s Ditto. Ditto was one of the Gen 1 stragglers introduced late into the game because I’m pretty sure it took a while for Niantic to figure out how to code him. But now, three generations later, Ditto no longer just appears as random Pidgeys and Ratattas, but rather a whole host of Gen 1-3 Pokémon. I had no idea what the full list of curre...
