Pokémon Go’s latest update brought some small but noticeable changes. It hints that we might soon see Pokémon from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet in the game. This is a pretty big deal for fans!
The update changed how the game shows Pokédex numbers. Now, they appear with four digits, like 0001, instead of three. This change could mean two things. First, it might be because Pokémon now has over 1,000 unique creatures. Second, it could signal that new Pokémon from Gen VII are about to join Pokémon Go.
Fans are buzzing with excitement. Why? Because the game teased a crossover event. The event could bring new Pokémon into Pokémon Go. Plus, Gimmighoul’s Roaming Form will only be in Pokémon Go. This means cool features like Golden PokéStops and Mysterious Coins will finally be used. Who knows? These might pop up as a big surprise on Pokémon Day, February 27.
There’s more in store. The update suggests that more content is coming soon. It notably points to Gimmighoul’s unique forms and Gholdengo, the 1,000th Pokémon, as key reasons for these changes. This also hints that Pokémon HOME might soon work with Scarlet and Violet.
The update includes other fun changes too. Now, when you encounter Pokémon attracted by Lures, Incense, and Mystery Boxes, you’ll see a new indicator over their CP number. Also, you can now get Field Research from PokéStops, even with a full bag. This makes the game even more enjoyable.
However, there’s a warning for players thinking of updating their game. A few visual bugs have shown up, and the game might freeze during raids. It might be better to wait until these issues are fixed before updating.
So, get ready for some exciting new updates in Pokémon Go. New adventures and Pokémon may be just around the corner. Keep your Pokémon Go app updated and your eyes peeled for any surprises that come your way!
