Sadly, an exact time frame wasn’t revealed, but many have postulated that it could be as early as today, December 11, 2018, because an iOS update for Pokemon GO is set to roll out sometime today. Others think it could be referring to the forthcoming winter event, but until Niantic rolls out this new wave, there’s no way to know. Check out the official teaser below:
Here’s a rough translation:
If this Pokemon GO tease is, in fact, tied to the upcoming winter event, then fans are hoping for some new Gen 4 Water- and Ice-types. It’s worth mentioning that the attached video showcases Mamoswine and Glaceon, so this definitely seems like it is in the realm of possibility. After all, 2017’s winter event saw the addition of the following: 20 new Gen 3 Water- and Ice-types, Santa Hat Pikachu, free incubators, special boxes, and more.
At the end of the day, though, we simply have to wait and see what Niantic has up its sleeves. Any of the aforementioned speculations could be true, or none of them at all. What we can say is that Pokemon GO fans should be prepared for some awesome events in the coming weeks; after the winter event, for example, January will be hosting a Community Day that could very well see Totodile as the featured Pokemon.
Pokemon GO is available now in select regions for Android and iOS devices.
