If Pokémon GO has remained firm for something over the years, it is thanks to the constant updates that Niantic has provided. Through them, the delivery of the Nintendo saga has managed to continually renew itself by constantly offering new content.
That is why the beginning of this new year augurs a good feeling for the title. Above all, considering that in a matter of a few weeks Pokémon Legends Arceus will land on Nintendo Switch. Even so, it is not the only thing that is expected from Pokémon GO in 2022, because there is still much to do.
Forms of Galar
Recently, and in a similar way to the Alola forms , we have seen how the Pokémon with Galar forms were born. In short, they are creatures whose development has been affected by the region where they carry out their life.
It is true that they have not enjoyed as much popularity as the first case, but among them we find very interesting proposals such as the three legendary birds . These have not yet been introduced in the delivery for mobile phones, but it is a matter of time before they are added to the list of available.
Legacy Season
On December 1, the Legacy Season began. This is an event related to the next launch of the Japanese company where Professor Willow discovers a mysterious huge door that apparently belongs to centuries past.
The players must help the teacher to find the answer to this great unknown. The end of this event is scheduled to take place on March 1 of this year. Therefore, it is to be expected that after the arrival of Pokémon Legends Arceus the news of Pokémon GO will increase. In fact, this Friday will start the Mountains of Power event in which we will work to open the second lock on the door.
Among the additions that may come are the forms of Pokémon from this new region. There is also the possibility of including creatures that are not yet available for capture. In addition, from Wednesday, January 19 until the beginning of February, the final stage of the opening of this gate will begin. This section will star Pokémon of electric or steel type. So it is the ideal occasion to get hold of your favorite creatures of these types.
Johto Tour
Its operation is identical to the Kanto Tour that we saw last year in Pokémon GO. Between February 26 and 27, the creatures belonging to this region will predominate. This is why trainers will have a greater chance of encountering Shiny creatures, which are those whose appearance is different in terms of colors. Who knows if you will be lucky enough to find one of them …
Future events
At the moment, the long-term plans of Niantic’s mobile virtual reality video game are unknown. Through the seasonal events it is likely that the developer will include a large part of the absent of the eighth generation of Pokémon. On the other hand, if Nintendo is working on a new release heading into the end of the year, an event will almost certainly be introduced accordingly. However, there is still no news about it, so we have to wait for the announcement of a Pokémon Direct that confirms it.
