Trainers, some exciting news surfaced yesterday evening about some new sprites found in the game's network traffic. Let's dive straight in!
NEW SPRITES: New sprites and 3D models for many unreleased Pokémon were discovered, both in their normal and Shiny colorations. This addition leaves only Gorebyss, Kecleon, and Spinda to be added.
We don't want to ruin the hype, but we need to be super clear on one point: With the exception of Celebi, the addition of these sprites and models does not mean these Pokémon will be released anytime soon. Please keep that in mind.
OTHER NEWS: Before you go, we want to provide a quick update on some other news.
Thanks for reading, Trainers.

OTHER NEWS: Before you go, we want to provide a quick update on some other news.
- COMMUNITY DAY: Usually, we would have an announcement of the next Pokémon GO Community Day by now, but we do not this time. Given that Pokémon GO Fest is coming up this weekend, it would seem reasonable to believe that Niantic is working on more important things. We expect the announcement to be made within the next week.
- A NEW UPDATE: The game was updated to version 0.109.2 yesterday evening. A datamine of the update revealed no significant additions.
- POKÉMON GO FEST: Community reports indicate that Niantic is setting up portable cell towers in and around Lincoln Park, the site of Pokémon GO Fest 2018. Reports also indicate that Niantic employees spent Community Day in the park to test out the location.
Thanks for reading, Trainers.
