Pokemon Go

Pokemon Go is about to receive the biggest update since the launched last year. The update will temporarily shut down the in-game Gyms, and bring new features such as Raid Battles and Gym Badges.

A feature that should have been part of Pokemon GO since launch is finally coming this summer. PvP, Legendary Pokemon and greater emphasis on teams are all confirmed features in near future updates.

Joel McHale hosted the 21st Webby Awards, because they couldn't afford Will Arnett. Niantic's own Archit Bhargava accepted the award Pokemon Go won for The Best Mobile Game. Mr Bhargava took the opportunity to share the news about the legendary summer that awaits us this year.

Pokemon Go is hosting an Adventure Week. During the event it'll be easier to obtain Buddy Candy, rock types will spawn rate will increase and you'll get a new wardrobe item!

Pokemon GO Eggstravaganza starts today at 8 PM GMT, and ends on 20 April. During the event, the players will earn double XP, hatch more rare Pokemon from the 2 km eggs and receive additional Candy for every Pokemon hatched.

Pokemon Go received a new update, taking it to version 0.61.0 for Android and 1.31.0 for iOS devices. The nests have migrated according to their biweekly schedule.

Photos of PokeStops and Ingress portals have been updated to feature high resolution images captured by Ingress players.

Niantic reassured us the shiny Magikarp is still in the wild even though the Water Festival has come to an end. The next in-game event is still a mystery but we think Easter is a viable candidate. An Android update addressing some bugs and crashes has been released.

In honor of the World Water Day, Niantic has launched a Water Festival in the Pokemon Go app, making water and part water type Pokemon spawn more often. Sightings of a shiny Magikarp have been reported as well.

With the award season in full swing, and most of it broadcasting live, there are bound to be some mishaps
