Pokemon go will receive a big update at the end of November that will bring ‘Seasons’, new Pokémon and an upper level cap.
On top of that, Niantic is also holding a new event called ’12 Days of Friendship ‘to help trainers level up.
Seasons
The most exciting update on the 30th is Seasons. This update allows the game to mimic the real world seasons in the game. In each season, different Pokémon appear in the wild and hatch from the eggs.
The first season officially begins on December 1 at 8 a.m. local time.
New Pokémon
Soon after, on the 2nd at 10am local time, players can expect to start finding Pokémon originally discovered in the Kalos region.
The full list of new Pokémon is as follows:
- Chespin
- Quilladin
- Chesnaught
- Fennekin
- Braixen
- Delphox
- Froakie
- Frogadier
- Greninja
- Bunnelby
- Diggersby
- Fletchling
- Fletchinder
- Talonflame
- Litleo
- Pyroar
- Klefki (France only)
Upper level limit
Players who are at level 40 will be excited to hear that Niantic has extended the level cap to 50. Although, the developer says that these ten new levels will not be easy to conquer.
This update benefits even non-level 40 players by making leveling up easier than ever. The company’s press release says that all players will start earning more XP for catching Pokémon, evolving Pokémon, hatching Eggs, registering new Pokédex entries, and more after November 30.
“In some cases, the XP earned will be up to double what it was before,” the press release reads.
