Pokémon Go maker Niantic plans to make an augmented reality headset using Qualcomm's new Snapdragon XR2 Platform, paving the way to new games that integrate digital graphics with the real world. The collaboration will see the Niantic Real World Platform brought to not only Niantic's hardware but opened to other developers who want to make vast, shared AR experiences.
The newest code update for Pokemon GO reveals a few details about the future of the game - starting with the move Flying Press! This is a very special move that only TWO Pokemon have EVER used in the history of the Pokemon franchise. But wait, you might be saying, we aren't even done releasing Generation V (Gen 5 Pokemon from the Unova region, and the game Pokemon Black and White) - how could we already be seeing Pokemon from Gen 6?!
We've calculated the value of the Special Box, Ultra Box, and Adventure Box for December of 2019 - the first round. Of course no matter how you slice it, you're going to want to base your values on what items you're seeking, but what we've done here is to cut the items down to the basics, then recalculated the value of each box based on individual items. This should act as a decent Pokemon GO Special, Ultra, and Adventure Box guide for this first part of December 2019.
A set of Pokemon GO holidays are on their way here in December of 2019. That includes not only the events that've already been announced, but the now-annual events that match up with the holiday gift-giving season and New Years Eve! This means Ice-Type Pokemon spawns and the return of the cutest gift-giving Pokemon of all: Delibird... if we're unlucky!*
This week the official Pokemon Center online store revealed a collection of officially licensed Pokemon GO clothing and goods. The Pokemon Center (dot com) is the official Pokemon Company store for consumers online - as official as from-the-source gets. There, for the first time ever, they've got real-deal Pokemon GO STUFF. They call their first group of stuff the "Pokemon GO Teams Collection."
Today we're looking at all the next Pokemon GO updates, starting with this November 27, 28, and 29th (and the weekend!) This includes new Shiny Pokemon in Pokemon GO as well as a "family-themed Pokemon" event. The Shiny Pokemon revealed thus far this month haven't been too mind-blowing - but we might see some spectacular reveals in December - let's take a look!
"Gotta Catch 'em All" has always been the slogan of the Pokemon franchise but, truth be told, the games have been as much about organization and management as they are about collection and competition. For a game that tells you to catch them all, it's almost ironic that you have a rather hard cap on how much Pokemon you can have in storage. That limitation is even more acute in Pokemon GO but is, thankfully, expanding year after year, with this latest announcement about expanding Pokemon and Item capacities if you have the Pokecoin to spend.
Today we're taking a peek at some Pokemon GO cheats - if you want to call them that - in the form of live Pokemon GO Maps. These GPS-based maps work with Google Maps or OpenStreetMap, and can (pretty much) be opened on any sort of smartphone. This new list is ready to roll as of late November, 2019 - and will probably still be valid through the new year, barring any unexpected closures! Time to get tracking!

Today we're looking at the most important parts of the Pokemon GO Supereffective Week event that'll last from November 19 until November 26. This event will be live by the time you read this article, so head out to your favorite Pokemon Gym and keep this page open so you'll know what Pokemon are best to battle the biggest beasts! This event will give you the opportunity to catch some of the most "SUPEREFFECTIVE" Pokemon in the game!
CATAN - World Explorers is a new GPS map-centric mobile game from Niantic, in the works right now. This time, it's not about Pokemon, and it's not about Harry Potter. This time it's all about CATAN! That's the universe created by the original tabletop game Settlers of Catan. In this new game, as a user, you'll be able to "turn your neighborhood, town, and virtually the whole world into a huge Catan game board."
The latest version of Pokemon GO has a way to get rid of individual sorts of notifications. Earlier versions of Pokemon GO showed only a couple different sorts of Push Notifications in a list, which was sort of a bummer. If you're just viewing this game for the first time now since you quit a year ago - things have gotten better!
Today we're taking a peek at all the new Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield monsters just released into the code for Pokemon GO. This includes several of the Pokemon to which we pointed earlier this week as potential inclusions in the next major update to Pokemon GO. When you read this article, these new Galarian Form Pokemon might not yet be released into the wild - but they're definitely prepped and ready to rock!
