The Pokémon GO Pokédex Is Growing!

Trainers are about to discover many more Pokémon in the wild in Pokémon GO! More than 80 Pokémon that were originally discovered in the Johto region in the Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver games are beginning to appear around the world, including Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile. Plus, new game features are launching that will enhance your Pokémon GO experience. Take a look at some of the exciting updates rolling out.
Pokémon Aplenty
More than 80 Pokémon from the Johto region will begin to show up in Pokémon GO for the first time. Plus, you’ll be able to discover and catch gender-specific variations of select wild Pokémon, so be on the lookout! And note that some of the Pokémon you may have already encountered may be able to evolve into Pokémon that were previously not seen in Pokémon GO. Look for new Evolution items that can be used to evolve some Pokémon. These items can be obtained by spinning Photo Discs at PokéStops.
Enhanced Encounters
Now, when you encounter Pokémon in the wild, don’t be surprised if they react in new ways when you try to catch them. There is also a simple new way to quickly select items during encounters.
A Bounty of Berries
When you visit a PokéStop, you’ll now have the opportunity to get new Berries that Pokémon love. Give a Pokémon a Nanab Berry to slow its movements, making it easier to catch. Or give it a Pinap Berry to double the amount of Candy you’ll receive if your next catch attempt succeeds.
Avatar Apparel
Give your avatar a new look with customizable apparel and accessories. Upgrade your style with new items.
Get up and go discover more Pokémon and the latest features appearing in Pokémon GO!

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 ...
