As rumored, Pokemon Go has added new creatures for you poke-collection. New Pokemon that arrived in the mobile game on December 12th include Togepi and Pichu, as well as “select” monsters from the Pokemon Gold & Silver games.
You can acquire these creatures by visiting PokeStops and collecting Eggs that can eventually hatch into them. In a statement yesterday, developer Niantic stated that these are only the “first” of more Pokemon coming to Pokemon Go in the coming months.
Additionally, Pokemon Go has added a holiday update that introduces a version of Pikachu sporting a festive hat. You may not have trouble adding the creature to your Pokedex, as Niantic says they will appear in “large quantities” now until the event wraps up on December 29.
“As we race toward 2017, we can’t help but feel grateful for the support and reaction the Pokemon Go community has given us, and we’re delighted to start rolling out select Pokemon for them to hatch,” Niantic director of product Kei Kawai said in a recent statement.
