'Pokémon GO' Has Finally Fixed One Of Its Worst Changes To Raids

referring to Ever since Pokémon GO Fest in Chicago in July, Pokémon GO, for reasons that were never made clear, did away with the concept of hatchable eggs with countdown timers, opting instead to simply spawn Pokémon instantly for two hours. But now the old system has returned, and now for the first time, we're seeing the art for Legendary eggs in action. The new (old) system means there's now a two-hour countdown for raids, and then the raid boss itself will spawn for an hour after that. I remain wary about the concept of exclusive Mewtwo raids, but I'll wait and see how the trials go. Again, I think the priority needs to be for Niantic to figure out something for people to do with their Legendary Pokémon in the game other than just…using them to catch more Legendary Pokémon, but I am happy with this egg change.


Gen 3 Won't Save 'Pokémon GO' On Its Own

NianticPokémon GO is still in the middle of dumping out all its Legendary Pokémon into raids. But I'm not so sure that Gen 3, even if it includes more and better Pokémon overall than Gen 2, will be enough to get the game back on track. There are two core problems that Pokémon GO needs to address before Gen 3 can be introduced into the game, but I have my doubts that either will be. Pokémon GO needs to buff its other activities to match, at least to some extent. Solve these two problems and then yes, Pokémon GO might be ready for Gen 3.

Gen 3 Won't Save 'Pokémon GO' On Its Own

referring to First off, Pokémon GO has done away with one of its primary motivating factors to get players out playing again, global special events. The last major event like this was Fire and Ice in June, which saw increased bonuses and special spawns of fire and ice type Pokémon. In the wake of Pokémon GO Fest in Chicago in July, there were also a number of in-game bonuses in addition to the first two Legendaries launching, but since then? This month, for instance, Legendary Pokémon Raikou is spawning as a raid boss in the US. It's just been regular raids and then when Legendaries came along, harder raids with the exact same mechanics.
