Pokemon Go Remains A Curious Bastion Of Mega Evolution

Fans of Pokemon X and Y know Mega Evolution well: players could equip certain Pokemon with a special stone that allowed them to temporarily evolve beyond their final stage, gaining increased power in battle for a while. Although Mega Evolution was a clever idea, it has since faded into the background, and its role in the Pokemon series remains uncertain. In Pokemon GO, however, Mega Evolution is implemented and celebrated....

Pokemon Go Removes Two Pokemon From Regional Exclusive List

Until the latest update, Plusle would only appear in North America, South America, and Africa, whereas Minun would only appear in Asia, Europe, and Australia. Now, it seems the iconic tag team duo can be found in the wilds of Pokemon GO together. It seems that, as part of yesterday’s update, the developer decided to release the restrictions on the Pokemon’s spawn locations. Although the official Pokemon GO twitter (see below) stated that “Plusle and Minun have been spotted together around the world,” it may or may not be deliberate on Niantic’s part....

Pokemon Legends Arceus Should Start A New Starter Trend For Future Pokemon Games

In every Game Freak Pokemon title, players start as a young person who, through some sort of circumstance, is given the chance to select their first Pokemon and become a Pokemon trainer. Pokemon Legends: Arceus is not changing anything about that — but instead of picking from Sinnoh’s usual starters of Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup, players choose from Cyndaquil, Rowlet, or Oshawott. This is pulling from Pokemon Gold and Silver, Sun and Moon, and Black and White respectively, none of them matching up with the region they’re in....
