First legendary Pokémon for Pokémon GO are now being displayed as banner ads in the Indian iOS store. A release of these special Pokémon may be closer than many trainers thought.
Currently, Pokémon GO experts and players are dealing with a possible leak. There is a banner ad in the Indian iOS app store that points to the legendary Pokémon. These are mentioned in the same sentence as the special Pikachu with a hat that is currently catchable.
Are these two events connected?
Legendary Pokémon in the Indian App Store
The hype train of the PoGO community is picking up speed again! This train started when the developers announced that summer 2017 is going to be legendary. After the first screenshots of legendary raid battles made the rounds, there are now further hints about legendary Pokémon in Pokémon GO.
On Reddit, user lightninglemons22 shows that a banner ad in the Indian iOS app store mentions the legendary monsters. These are mentioned in the same sentence as the special Pikachu that is currently available to catch in the wild.
“Special Pikachu with a hat and first legendary Pokémon (possibly: “first legendary Pokémon”).
It is unclear how long this ad has been active in the Indian app store. Perhaps it is a leak and this ad was supposed to be activated in a few days. However, we might also find this message soon in our app stores.
It is also claimed on Reddit that this ad was visible in the app store for users from Singapore. In the meantime, the “Great new updates” category, where the ad was found, has disappeared again.
Hints about the legendary Pokémon have already been found in the code that data miners have searched. There, the dark eggs that these special monsters could hatch from were noted.
Legendary Pokémon and the Chicago Fest – Speculation
On July 22, the Pokémon GO Fest will take place in Chicago. Yesterday, Niantic disclosed some details, such as a mysterious riddle, that is supposed to offer trainers around the world a special bonus if solved.
It is likely that this could involve the legendary Pokémon. However, nothing has been officially confirmed yet.
Are you already waiting for these special Pokémon, or do you not care about the release?
