Pokemon GO launches Adventure Week for its 1st birthday

Pokemon Go was launched last year, and despite expectations that this is just another one-day wonder, the game marks its first birthday this Thursday. Because of the anniversary, Niantic is launching an event called Adventure Week and will bring many incentives for players, willing to catch ‘em all.
In the seven days between May 18 and May 25, many Rock-type Pokemon will appear throughout the game. Even if you are collecting Geodudes, rare Pokemon like Omanyte and Kabuto might also arise more often.
Increased rate of Rock-type Pokemon will be accompanied with Buddy Candy that will take just a kilometer to attain, instead of the regular 4 kilometers of walking.
Along with the monsters, some appearance accessories are going to appear. Your avatar will have “brand-new wardrobe item.” The “Adventurer’s Hat” will be available for free to all players and only time will tell if it will be still free even after the Adventure Week is over.
The Pokemon Go Adventure Week will bring more items at each Pokestop. You might get five or even six, instead of the standard three, but detailed info will be revealed when the event launches. The Adventure Week starts at 4 PM ET or 9 PM UK time on May 18.

Nintendo's Failure To Give The Switch A Proper Pokémon Game Is Inexcusable

Nintendo/Paul Tassi The Dream Yesterday was a strange day for Nintendo fans who tuned into a new Pokémon Direct hoping for some relatively simple news: Pokémon is coming to the Nintendo Switch. Of course, technically, that did happen, but only in the form of Pokken Tournament getting ported over from the Wii U to the Switch in a new “Deluxe” package . But the fully-fledged Pokémon games featured in the show, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and Gold and Silver for Virtual Console, were relegated to the 3DS. After the show, there was a brief flare-up of hope that due to a rogue listing, it appeared that Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon may get a Switch release after all, but The Pokémon Company quickly shut that rumor down , saying the listing was a mistake. Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are 3DS only, and there are no plans to bring them to the Switch. The two magic words everyone was looking for yesterday were “Pokémon Stars,” the long rumored, even offic...

New storyline gives lapsed ‘Pokémon Go’ players a reason to reinstall

The  Pokémon Go craze has definitely fizzled out over the last year or so, with several key promised features still not released yet, but lapsed trainers now have a reason to reinstall the game again. This week, new “field research” quests add narrative to what has largely been a player-driven multiplayer experience thus far. “A series of mysterious happenings is occurring all over the world, and Professor Willow is seeking trainers to help him found out if this is connected to the mythical Pokémon Mew,” Niantic said in an update post . “These research tasks will become available to trailers around the world later this week!” There will be two different categories of research during the event: “Field research” and “special research.” The former type can be triggered by visiting Pokéstops, and will task trainers with completing raids or gym battles or catching a certain type of Pokémon. Special research missions are longer, with trainers having to complete several ...
