Hello trainers! As you've no doubt noticed by now, the Halloween event has come to an end. I hope you enjoyed it and had a great time catching the event pokémon. :D

Niantic has announced a few updates for us. It's not quite clear when these changes will go live (or if they already have). Reports are conflicting at the moment.

• Look alive! Nests have migrated.

• Along those lines, spawning diversity has increased and you won't be seeing as many pidgeys, rattatas, and zubats as before. (source)

• As [personal profile] healingmirth pointed out in last week's post, eevees will now hatch from 5km eggs while pidgeys and rattatas will no longer hatch from 2km eggs. Oh no! But I'm still trying to evolve that good IV pidgeot with wing attack/hurricane!! (source)

• And finally, we will be getting daily bonuses for doing certain in-game activities everyday! More details here. This change will hopefully be included in the next game update, which if the schedule holds up, will start rolling out next week.

Any interesting bits of news from your neck of the woods? How do you feel about these upcoming changes?

For that matter...

Holy bleep, and a wartortle when I loaded the app again after submitting that comment. I'm going to have to really change up my carried item balance if stuff is going to spawn in range of my couch, but this is exciting! I didn't notice any changes on my walking route earlier, but it appears that I was too hasty and so, so wrong.

Bunch of TSR folks reporting that spawn window seems to have changed from 15 minutes minimum to 30. I think my the local (suburban) spawn density is probably about the same, and the sightings window filling up is result of that. Seems like it could be a nightmare for urban players trying to track something down, even with the new tracker, but it sounds like great news for suburban and rural players.
