In Pokémon GO, the release of Gen 7 from the Alola region is imminent. This was officially confirmed by the team at Niantic. We will show you the information.
What’s new? On February 27, Niantic announced the arrival of Alola Pokémon with a short video. Shortly before, data miners had already found clues that the release of the new Pokémon from Generation 7 is approaching.
When is Generation 7 coming? Niantic officially states: “More Pokémon from the Alola region known from Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon will appear soon in Pokémon GO! During the Alola season, a wealth of events featuring the various Pokémon making their debut in Pokémon GO will be available for three months!”
The new season will start on March 1. By then, we should receive more precise information about when the new Pokémon will arrive and which ones they are. Here, we will show you the first Pokémon from Gen 7 and who they are.
In the new video, Niantic already spreads a bit of Alola feeling:
Why are Alola Exeggutor everywhere now?
This is the reason: The Pokémon GO team is celebrating the arrival of new Pokémon from the Alola region. To celebrate, they are spawning many Alola Exeggutor in the wild.
Keep in mind that you can also catch Alola Exeggutor in its shiny form. So take advantage of this opportunity while they are still spawning so frequently. Maybe you can secure one or more specimens.
What do we know about Generation 7?
This was found: A few days ago, data miners reported that there were changes in the code. Something regarding the monsters of Generation 7 was altered, hinting at their release.
What do the Pokémon look like? On reddit user neko_13 showcased a list of the Pokémon with their English names a few years ago at the release of Generation 7. We show you the gallery here:
