A new update has begun to roll out for Pokémon GO. Here are the highlights of what dataminers have found in the APK:

NEW  LOADING  SCREEN

The most notable addition in this update is the new loading screen. It shows many different Shadow Pokémon on it and four mysterious figures. The farthest-back figure appears to be Team Rocket's leader, Giovanni, and the other three seem to be admins of Team GO Rocket and/or the people Niantic teased in Professor Willow's corrupted file.

"A  COLOSSAL  DISCOVERY"

Following its leak from last week, this new update has shed more light on the "A Colossal Discovery" event. We now know that the event will be taking place, based on the ticket's current description, on November 2 from 11:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. local time wherever you are in the world. It's still unclear as to what the event will entail.

SHADOW  POKEMON

Several new Shadow Pokémon have been discovered:

• Onix​​​
• Steelix
• Delibird
• Stantler
• Shuppet
• Banette
• Duskull
• ​Dusclops
• Snorunt
• Glalie
• Snover
• ​Abomasnow

That's just about everything notable from the update. Thanks for reading, Trainers!
