This Week in Pokémon Go News

[inkstone]

Happy Friday, trainers! Here are some game-related highlights from the past week...

• Pokémon Go has launched in Central & South America. Just in time for the Olympics! I bet a lot of athletes and spectators are relieved. ¡Bienvenidos!

• In addition to the changes caused by the update from last weekend, there are several reports that the pokémon type spawning at in-game nests have changed. (source)

• Niantic posted another update on their FB page. One of the topics addressed was the missing battery saver feature caused by the latest update on iOS. They removed it due to buggy behavior for some users but that it should be returning soon. I know some community members noticed this, so hopefully the wait won't be long! (source)

• They're also aware of the bug that doesn't give you accuracy bonuses when you're supposed to get them (I've been missing these!) and that increases the chances of pokémon escaping (I really noticed this during my last morning pokewalk). (source)
