A mysterious tweet from Pokémon GO has many fans hoping for a small event at gamescom 2019. Team Rocket is said to be involved.
What was said? Pokémon GO reports an increase in Crypto-Pokémon in Cologne and speculates that Team Rocket must be nearby. At least that’s what they are saying on Twitter.
What exactly is behind the tweet is still unclear. Niantic may provide more information there.
Team Rocket at gamescom 2019?
What could be behind it? Currently, the gamescom 2019 is taking place in Cologne. Various game developers are presenting their games there, but Pokémon GO does not play a major role. At least that was thought.
Last year, there were special Icognito spawns around gamescom. This time, the rare event Pokémon are taking their time.
The current tweet at least suggests that Niantic will not let gamescom 2019 pass completely without an event. Team Rocket may pay a visit.
Are there already reports? There haven’t been any sightings from players yet. Currently, Team Rocket is likely not active in large numbers. It remains to be seen what Niantic has planned.
What do players suspect? The biggest suspicion about this tweet is a special event involving Team Rocket. They might raid all the PokéStops again. That was already the case shortly after the release.
This time, however, it could be limited to the city of Cologne. After all, only there have Crypto-Pokémon been found in larger numbers.

What is definitely in the game now is the special research regarding Jirachi. We will show you how you can complete it:
