The ghosts of the third generation in Pokémon GO are ready for release. Niantic has added attacks, buddy distances, catch, and flee rates.
Last night, there were major changes in Pokémon GO. The GAMEMASTER file had some entries that now allow the release of ghosts from Gen 3. Now we can find the attacks and further details of the new monsters in the code.
Anticipation for the upcoming Halloween event is growing.
