'Pokémon Go' Gets 50 New Pokémon And Other Updates

2017-12-07 6


"Pokémon Go" users will soon see two big updates: 50 new Pokémon characters and a new "dynamic weather system." The new characters include ones from the Hoenn region, previously seen in the "Pokémon Ruby" and "Pokémon Sapphire" video games. The virtual reality game will also now take weather into account to reflect players' local weather patterns. Certain characters will appear more frequently on rainy days, while certain attacks like Charizard’s Fire Spin will be more effective on sunny days.
