One hour ago, the next wave of Generation 3 was announced! Over 50 new Pokémon and a real-time weather system are coming later on this week!
REAL-TIME WEATHER: A real-time weather system is going to be introduced soon! The in-game map and capture screens will display bright sunlight, rain, snow, and other forms of weather. The weather will affect other areas of play, too!
Some moves will gain power in certain forms of weather. For example, a Charizard or Entei using Fire Spin will have increased power. Certain types of Pokémon will also spawn more during specific weather. For example, Ice-types and Steel-types will spawn more when snowing and more Water-types when raining. Other effects, such as increased Stardust from increased-spawn types, will also be in effect. Should Castform be introduced, it will most definitely change forms based on the weather.
NEW SPECIES: Many new species of Pokémon from the Hoenn Region will soon be here! Throughout various releases on official Pokémon sources, these are some of the Pokémon that we'll see:
- Treecko, Grovyle, Sceptile
- Torchic, Combucken, Blaziken
- Mudkip, Marshtomp, Swampert
- Poochyena, Mightyena
