In Pokémon GO there is hope for new Pokémon again. A dataminer found the missing sprites of the 4th generation in the code. Players now believe in a new wave of Pokémon.
This is why there is hope: The finding of sprites, which are the images of the Pokémon, has always been the first sign of new monsters.
Considering that the last Pokémon were added in early February, it is certainly time again for new monsters.
This is what the dataminer found in the code
What was found? Not many sprites were missing and they have now been added. These include:
- Hippopotas and Hippoterus
- Rotom
- Arceus
- Manaphy
What does the finding mean? So far, this doesn’t mean anything for the game. However, it shows that all Pokémon are now in the code and can be published much faster. Now only things like sounds or animations are missing. But these can come very quickly.
This is why players have hope: With Hippopotas and Hippoterus, the last Pokémon have also been added that are neither legendary, mystical, nor possess any special ability.
These two Pokémon might soon be part of a new wave of Pokémon that will come into the game.
So far it has been: Often, new Pokémon come into the game fairly quickly after such a finding.In early November 2018, for example, Bamelin was found in the code. Only a day later it was also released.
Which missing Pokémon are important? Independent of the legendary and mythical Pokémon, Knakrack is particularly interesting. This Pokémon is basically the Dragonite of the 4th generation and will become the best dragon attacker after Rayquaza.
These are the Pokémon that trainers hope for the most. After the finding of the sprites, it is said: “KNAKRACK HYPE!” or “I have already saved special candies for Knakrack!”
This finding is also interesting: The finding of Rotom in the code further emphasizes the finding of the icons of the Pokémon a few days ago. A release could also be imminent here. But we will have to wait and see.
