Pokémon GO: what will come soon to the game of the moment

As you have already commented in some post, yes, Actualidad iPhone It seems that it has been renamed "Pokémon News" in recent days. But it's not just us: Pokémon GO it is even appearing on the news, for better and for worse. It is understandable that some of you may be bothered that we talk so much about something in particular that does not have much to do with the iPhone, but this is something that we also had to do now a little over a year ago with the Apple Watch and, calm down, we have I have to cover all the information now, but (I guess) everything will be back to normal in a few weeks. In any case, do not forget that this game is also available for the iPhone.

Pokémon GO is the game of the moment and who knows when its moment will end. There is news of all kinds, such as users looking for Pokémon and find the corpse of a person, hundreds (or thousands) of users running after a Vaporeon in Central Park or, this more recently, a person who shoots two Pokémon players GO for playing in front of your house. What we bring you today is information about what's to come to the game that is motivating all this news and it seems that Pokémon GO is going to improve, and a lot, in the coming weeks.

More types of Pokémon are coming, including Legendary

As with practically any release, the first version of Pokémon GO includes a good number of Pokémon, but not all. The game developers know this and will add more, including Legendary Pokémon.

It is likely that groups of friends overcome some challenges to get the legendary Pokémon that will represent your team. The downside of this is: who will be the lucky one to get this type of Pokémon in one of their Pokéballs?

Best Pokémon Tracking Tools

If you are playing Pokémon GO, you may have realized that finding them is not easy at all. I think that currently if we have a Pokémon nearby it has the same difficulty waiting for them to appear on the screen than walking and finding them ourselves. In the lower right part of the screen we see the 3 Pokémon that we have closer. If we touch on that small bar, the option called «Nearby» will open, where we will see up to 9 Pokémon that we have around us (be careful, in Japanese order, that is, the closest is the one on the top right and not the one at the top left). The ones we've already seen / tried to hunt will be in color, while the ones we haven't seen yet will appear in silhouette form. This is all very well, but where do I go if I want to find them? Under each Pokémon there are three footprints that, in theory, show us how far away they are, but I've never seen fewer steps. What I have seen are some circles on the map that, also in theory, indicate the steps of a Pokémon that we have around us.

All this explained, it seems to me that the "clues" are insufficient. The creators of the game also think so and will introduce other tools, like the direction we have to take to get to a specific Pokémon.

Trade Pokémon with friends

I've never been a fan of these "Pocket Monsters" (that was their original name) and I don't really know everything about them, but I do know that part of their appeal is collecting them. In this respect, , we could say that we are before a collection type like those that had been buying some candy years ago. What we did in those cases was to exchange the cards, stickers or whatever we got with other friends who had what we wanted and who wanted what we had.

When you have been playing Pokémon GO for a few days, you must have gotten several duplicates (eh, Rattata and Pidgey?). Although most of the duplicates will be Pokémon that we will find even under our bed, we can also get two of something more interesting, such as two Charmander or Raticate. If we have some that we don't want, we have a friend that has some that we want and this friend wants something that we have, soon we can exchange them.

Of course, I would like to comment on a piece of advice that I have read these days: it is worth saving at least one of each, including those of a lower level. Why? Well, because we can always combine them with others and get special Pokémon.

Pokémon battles with friends

The best way to learn to fight and for our Pokémon to become stronger is by fighting. Right now we can fight in gyms, friends and enemies, but soon we will be able to fight with friends. that is, train. It is something that will arrive, but it is not known when exactly.

See more Pokémon GO components in the real world

The best thing about Pokémon GO is that blends in with the real world. In addition to the possibility of hunting the Pokémon using the camera and Augmented Reality, it also makes use of Google Maps, so while we move in the real world, we will move in Pokémon GO. In addition, the Poképaradas and gyms are in real points in our area, so we can see a Poképarada in the library or the town hall of our town (with a photo and everything!).

It seems that this is just the beginning of Augmented Reality (AR) in this game. And is that the CEO of Niantic has described all this as "a great first step." As you can see in the previous image, we can see directions and other signs on top of something in the real world. That's what Augmented Reality is about, right?

Of course, it is clear that in order to see this type of information we will have to watch from a compatible device. Currently, these devices are our mobiles, but compatible devices could soon arrive, such as Magic Leap. As I write this, it is impossible for me to stop thinking about Google Glass, glasses that did not enjoy the expected success at the time, but that could see how their destiny changes with a game like Pokémon GO.

Events around the cities

Pokémon has been very successful since the release of its first game about two decades ago. I have seen on TV that there are competitions all over the world and, if I remember correctly, when I saw a documentary or similar many years ago, the third in the world was Spanish. With such success, the best thing for the creators is to exploit it to the fullest. The events that will be in the cities They will be limited by time, so it will be necessary to organize with the rest of the team to achieve the objective of the challenge. It is also possible that we need a coach with a high level to participate in these events, so let's train!

Team fights

Perhaps the events of an entire city are too much. If this is the case for you and you want something more limited, you have to know that the team matches.

Gym and PokéStops customization

If we have fought for a gym and it is ours, wouldn't it be a good idea to decorate it so that we like its image more? Niantic thinks the same and has promised that we can customize them in the future.

What of all that is yet to come do you most want to see?
