New Lures, More Pokémon, and a New Move Officially Announced by Niantic |

The only things i want to know:
Will the new lures last 3 hours on CD?
And will the new lures spawn the CD pokemon or the ones from the type that it represents?

Im hoping Niantic will answer this tomorrow, but i fear Asia will have to find out the hard way.

Trick: Look around town for people who put lure out so you dont gotta spend.

I bought all 3 but only used 2 and found 2 free ones

idk if this helps at all

Yes, name trick only works once, but you can evolve as many as you like as long as the Lure is active and you are in range of it

Just read on Reddit that Hippopotas is in nests.

They nest in nests that were previously Bidoof.

In general, yes.
In reply to me, no.
Nothing in there about CD.

I absolutely love this. Garchomp released, as well as my favourite eeveelution leafeon

Amazing
Only things not making it the best week of Go is Garchomp not getting EP and the box not having more than 24 passes, but its still a gorgeous one

The new lure thing is kind of neat. But there is one thing not specified that matters for these but didn’t affect earlier eevolutions:

Which form-coercion mode has more effect? If I stand next to a pokestop with a mossy lure and evolve an Eevee named ‘Rea’, will the result be Glaceon or Leafeon? Will the lure trump the nickname? Or vice-versa?

I’m curious enough to be the proverbial guinea pig on this…

Got a Glaceon the one time I tested it. To declare it a rule, though, would require either official word from Niantic, or about a hundred tests, which of course would require about a hundred accounts, since the nickname trick only works once per-account.

I’m sure it’ll last 3 hours, but I doubt it’ll spawn CD Pokémon unless the CD Pokémon is the right type. (So for torchic CD I doubt it’ll spawn extra torchic regardless of the new lures you use)

No need. The ? Changes to the Eeveelution pared to that name. Of course it will only work once.

Who wants to bet that Garchomp will be an upcoming Community Day in the next month or so?

Ooooh I HOPE thats the case, with either Dragon Rush or Earth Power, but we will likely have to wait at least half a year

We’re actually scraping the barrel on candidates to what could be the next Community Day Pokemon after Torchic Day and before Mudkip Day (June), so it may be sooner than we think.

I’m suspicious that it will be Earth Power for Gible Community Day as it’s an exceptionally powerful move, and Garchomp learns it via tutoring in the core games. Since Dragon Rush isn’t currently in the gamemaster file, it seems the most likely candidate. It would also surpass Groudon as a Ground-type attacker if it gets Earth Power.

They still need to do Ralts CD
