The Pokémon Go Team has announced that the game is getting 80 new Pokémon and features shortly. Starting later this week, gamers will have the opportunity to catch more than 80 Pokémon originally discovered in the Johto region in the Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver video games.
The developers have also implemented some new features to enhance the overall Pokémon GO experience. These new features include:
Additional Pokémon: More than 80 Pokémon that were originally discovered in the Johto region in the Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver video games, as well as Pokémon with gender-specific variations, will start rolling out in Pokémon GO.
New Evolutions: There are now more opportunities to evolve the Pokémon in Pokémon GO than ever before. Some Pokémon originally discovered in the Kanto region will soon be able to evolve—into Pokémon that inhabit the Johto region. Gamers need to be on the lookout for new Evolution items at PokéStops, which gamers will need in order to evolve some Pokémon.
New Encounter Gameplay: When gamers encounter Pokémon in the wild, don’t be surprised if they react in new ways when you try to catch them. Gamers will also notice the addition of new item carousels that allow you to select Berries and Poké Balls directly from the encounter screen.
New Berries: Pokémon enjoy eating Berries, and gamers will have the opportunity to get two new Berries by spinning the Photo Disc at PokéStops—Nanab Berries and Pinap Berries! Giving a Pokémon a Nanab Berry will slow its movements, making it easier to catch. The Pinap Berry doubles the amount of Candy gamers will receive if their next catch attempt succeeds.
New Avatars and an Expanded Wardrobe: Now gamers will be able to give their avatar a complete upgrade. You can customise your look with a whole new selection of hats, shirts, pants, and other items.
