Server Side Updates

This is not an update to the app. It is an update from the servers. The currently known changes are:
  • new movesets for some pokémon (list of changes*)

  • spawn rates of regional exclusive pokémon have skyrocketed (I've seen 3 Tauros so far today!)**

  • spawn rates of rarer pokémon have also increased

  • more potions are being dropped at PokeStops

Again, these are server side updates.


* That link includes a mention of the dodging change. This change actually happened a couple weeks ago. It's now only a max 75% damage reduction. (Which is still significant, but as someone who dodges a lot, I noticed the change immediately and had originally wondered if my dodging had just gotten worse due to the amount of damage I was taking.)

** There is some speculation that this in preparation for the trading feature.

I'm already throwing out all but hyper potions to make room for pokeballs, sigh.

Same. I don't need more potions!

Ditto, me too, and likewise. Do not want.

Wow, I'm in desperate need of potions and I don't even do that much battling. How strange!
