Generation II Coming to Pokémon GO: Trailer

Pokémon GO is about to get even bigger!

It has been announced that Pokémon GO is set to receive a huge update later this week with a ton of new content.

  • New Pokémon: over 80 new Pokémon from the John region will soon begin appearing in the game
  • New Evolutions: some Kanto Pokémon will be able to evolve into new Pokémon using new items that trainers can find at PokéStops
  • New Encounter Gameplay: several new encounter actions for Pokémon have been added, meaning they may react differently than before! Items can now also be selected in the capture screen using the new item carousel
  • New Berries: two new berries will be added to the game both bringing new benefits to trainers who use them. The Nanab Berry will slow the Pokémon it is given too, making it easier to catch, whilst the Pinap Berry will double the amount of candy you receive if you successfully capture the Pokémon in your next turn
  • New avatars and wardrobe items: finally players will be able to give their avatar a completely new look with an expanded selection of hats, shirts, pants and more!

It’s been a long time coming, but it’s almost finally time to catch those Johto Pokémon! Who’s excited?!

  1. HOW TO AVOID SPOILERS

    Youtube: Filter out videos with Video Blocker, unsub from Nintendo/Zelda related channels that you know will probably talk about the leaks

    If you’re on mobile, your best bet is to avoid Zelda/Nintendo videos and clear your history

    Tumblr: Just fill this thing with a shit-load of zelda related tags and unfollow zelda blogs

    Pokejungle: Don’t roll over spoiler text

    If you are going to post leaks ANYWHERE, be curious and don’t put huge spoilers just out there for people to accidentally stumble upon.

  2. Random thought: predict when Pokemon 2017 will be announced.

    My prediction: late May. Before E3 but not too early like a new gen.

      • Honestly I’m good with either one. Heck, they might give us Z, who knows?

        As long as I get to relive sinnoh again I’m all good. I’m just happy that we can finally play a Pokemon game on the TV, it’s a dream come true.

      • I want Switch, I’d be very dissapointed to see it on 3DS, for three reasons.

        1. Pokemon has always been on a handheld, and this would push home the fact that it truly is a hybrid.
        2. Pokemon is a HUGE system seller.
        3. IT’D BE POKEMON ON THE TV

      • No way. SM was already pushing the 3DS’ limits, so that’s mean the Switch version would have to be held back in potential just to accommodate the 3DS. Plus that wouldn’t help switch sales all this much.

  3. Im a fraud! I went into EB Games the other day, and almost cried, because they have all the switch stuff set up (ads and signs and stuff) telling you to pre-order it, but I already checked with them and they sold out of their pre-orders like an hour into the day they started… so here I am, not having any sort of zelda lined up, nothing pre-ordered and yet calling myself a zelda fan! I just really do not want to pre-order a wii u version, I want the switch version! I’m such a mess rn.

  4. Also Generation 2 on Go will probably have me paying for another couple of weeks or so.

    Unfortunately there is literally no incentive to play the game for people who don’t want to spend tons of money on it.
