Chimchar and other fourth-generation Pokémon arrive in Pokémon GO

Pokémon Go regulars are in luck. Very soon Pikachu and his friends will have new rivals to face. Niantic has announced that the 4th generation creatures Chimchar, Piplup and Turtwig will be joining the game along with some other improvements and features The announcement was made through through the official Pokémon Go account on Twitter and through a statement on the website.

The ad reveals a video that is only 20 seconds long, showing the silhouettes of Chimchar, the fire-type starter, Turtwig, the grass-type starter, and Piplup, the water-type starter . These Pokémon from the Sinnoh region first appeared in the Pokémon Diamond Edition and Pearl Edition games, released in Spain in July 2007. At that time they were played with the Nintendo DS handheld system. Of course, the company has not yet reported the exact date on which the Pokédex will be expanded to add these fourth-generation Pokémon, although it has commented that it will be very soon.

On the other hand, Niantic has also revealed new changes that will come to Pokémon Go. The first is related to the weather. From now on, the weather feature will have less of an impact. Also, when exploring a specific area, will show up more frequently with a greater variety of Pokémon species. In certain places, such as parks or natural environments, more and more different Pokémon will appear.

Battles will also receive changes. The defense and resistance values ​​of the Pokémon will be more balanced.
