Niantic did not have the best week with a slew of hiccups across different mechanics of the game. From Therian Tornadus not available as a Shiny to Bewear learning a charge move as a fast move, only to be followed up with the Dusk Form Lycanroc debacle, Trainer sentiment of Niantic is exceptionally low. While Twitter may be as toxic as ever, those with thick skin and a level head have plenty to be excited about.

 

We have new GO Tour: Sinnoh details, including the announcement of Origin Forme Dialga and Palkia, along with their Adventure Effects. These new charge move perks could revolutionize how we engage with the game, requiring increased attention to inventory management and Stardust. The result will be new ways to bring efficiency to our gameplay, drastically improving our in-game experience. While we have some time before its release, we are sure that Adventure Effects will be polarizing and exciting.

 

The announcement of Porygon Community Day Classic and Chansey Community Day means 3 major in-game events over a 29 day period. While some may say the game is asking a lot of their schedule, others say bring it on. The event overload leads to our topic of the week: monetization.

 

The Eggs-pedition Access may become the new normal, with a recurring $5 monthly ticket, in addition to any a la carte spending. We do feel that Niantic is giving Trainers plenty of options with their spending, allowing F2P players a great experience, while enhancing gameplay for those that are willing to invest. Finding the balance between passive spending and FOMO will prove to be a very interesting vibe to follow.
