We had been asking for it for months, ever since the fever for go out to play pokemon go began to subside. And after rumors, leaks and code analysis, the thing is official: Niantic announces new Pokémon for Pokémon GO, and they will also arrive this week with the next update for the mobile app that finally renews and increases its Pokédex of creatures to hunt .
Gold and Silver Pokémon
Certainly, from its first Halloween event in 2016, Niantic began to implement the things GO needed to evolve and move forward, from power specialize in hunting certain types from Pokémon to daily objectives that added variety. But the problem is that deep down we hunted the same creatures as always. If we have asked the studio for something for months, it is new races. And this same week they answer us that yes, that before the end of the current week we will be hunting up to 80 different species.
The best thing is that we talk about 80 Pokémon originally discovered in the Johto region seen in the installments for the mythical Game Boy of Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver, the aftermath of the first Pokémon games that started the fever more than twenty years ago. For the fans we talk about being able to capture and get hold of Chikorita, with cyndaquil, with Totodile and 76 more that will add to our Pokédex and provide you with what GO needs so much right now: a variety of pokémons to hunt and new evolutions.
Niantic promises us new Evolution items at Poképaradas like use bait modules to catch creatures that we will need to evolve pokémons discovered in the Kanto region to pokémons that inhabit Johto. In addition, the variety of these will increase with the implementation of "Pokémon with specific gender variations."
Berries, interface and hunts
If you are a regular player, you will know the movements of each Pokémon well. But with the entry of the new ones, the study has taken the opportunity to implement new ways to move in wild Pokémon that we meet and try to hunt. For this, he has also retouched the game interface and put a direct access to Berries and poke balls within the combat screen. And speaking of berries, we have two new and different types: Latano Berries and Pinia Berries.
The Pokémon that are already there and those that will arrive in the app
Giving a Latano Berry to a Pokémon will slow down their movements, making them easier to catch. The Pinia Berry doubles the amount of candy we will receive if we manage to capture the creature on the next attempt after using the berry. Pokémon GO is available for Android and for iOS, and if the client has not yet been updated, in the next few days this week it will.
