+7 POPULAR Harness the power of special new lures, and meet more Pokémon!
“Trainers,
We’re excited to announce that more Pokémon originally discovered in the Sinnoh region are coming to Pokémon GO! From seas and beaches to mountains and beyond, be on the lookout for Cherubi, Gible, Hippopotas, and others. We hope you’ll enjoy the fun and surprises as you encounter these Pokémon in the wild and hatch them from Eggs. Also arriving in Pokémon GO is a powerful Ground-type move—Earth Power!
Plus, we have more exciting news to share. Thanks to your dedication in helping Professor Willow with his research, he has made some amazing improvements to our favorite module—the Lure Module. Inspired by research collected from around the world, three upgraded Lure Modules have been developed. These modules attract Pokémon in the surrounding area while creating a temporary special habitat. Soon you’ll be able to harness the power of Glacial Lure Modules, Mossy Lure Modules, and Magnetic Lure Modules. These lures might even have the potential to cause Evolution in certain Pokémon!
More details on these exciting additions:
- Additional Sinnoh Pokémon are now available to catch in the wild and hatch from Eggs.
- Earth Power is a powerful Ground-type Charged Attack that could lower your opponent’s defense in Trainer Battles.
• Certain Pokémon recently arrived from the Sinnoh region will know Earth Power.
• Other Pokémon that could know Earth Power include Nidoqueen, Nidoking, Aerodactyl, Camerupt, and Claydol.
- Glacial Lure Modules, Mossy Lure Modules, and Magnetic Lure Modules can be obtained in the in-game shop and will be available later this season as rewards for completing new Special Research tasks.
- These Lure Modules attract local Pokémon as well as bonus Pokémon based on the type of lure.
• Glacial Lure Modules attract certain Pokémon that love the cold, such as Water- and Ice-Type Pokémon.
• Mossy Lure Modules attract certain Pokémon that love to frolic among the leaves, such as Bug-, Grass-, and Poison-Type Pokémon.
• Magnetic Lure Modules attract certain Pokémon that are drawn to electromagnetic forces, such as some Electric-, Steel-, and Rock-type Pokémon.
- When Trainers are within range of a PokéStop with an active lure of the appropriate type, and they can successfully spin its Photo Disc, Evolution of Magneton and Nosepass will be enabled, as well as certain Evolutions of Eevee.
• You can choose whether or not to proceed with these special Evolutions on the Pokémon’s detail screen.
What other surprises will you discover? The only way to find out is to get out and GO!
—The Pokémon GO Team”

New Pokemon Mobile Game Announced
Pokemon Rumble Rush is a new free-to-play mobile game that will have you exploring a variety of islands with a companion Pokemon. Sound familiar? Yeah, this sounds a lot like the other Pokemon mobile game that came out in the last few years only to quickly disappear. Pokemon Rumble Rush is currently only available for Android devices in the Australia region, but it should hopefully become more widely accessible soon.

Pokémon Lounge Guidelines
Welcome, Trainers!
This spirited lounge is where both Pokémon Masters and Pokéfans alike discuss and share our love for the many games in the Pokémon series. As all Lounges across Moot do, this Lounge expects that all participants adhere to our Content Policy: https://moot.us/etc/contentpolicy
Please do post things in the correct board, only content directly related to Pokémon, and please avoid low-content posts — simply because it clogs things up. Any unrelated content will be moved to the Off Topic board.
About the boards:
• FEATURED will self-populate based on post popularity, unless a moderator decides to Feature a post because it's great.
• GENERAL is for anything unrelated to the other boards, as long as it's still related to Pokémon.
• TRADING is specifically for trading pokémon. No one saw that coming! Remember trainers, there are numerous games in the Pokemon universe, so be sure to point out which game you’re looking to interact within. (See the warning below with regards to trading within Pokémon GO.)
• LOOKING FOR GROUP is for finding trainers to battle! The time is nigh, and the battles shall be Legendary!
• POKÉMEMES is for all the memes and Pokémon humor you can find, but without going too far overboard.
✨MODERATOR used GLARE.✨
✨It’s super effective!✨

⚠️ WARNING! ⚠️
Unique to Pokémon GO, we have the issue of spoofing, also known as faking your GPS location. For all here, we need to let you know that we do not condone the practice. For Niantic, the Pokémon GO developer, it is considered as cheating. Spoofing and trading Pokémon with spoofing accounts can get you permanently banned from the game. Please keep this in mind if you choose to take this risk.

POPULAR Pokemon Sword / Shield Just Announced! Pokemon 8th Gen!
Pokemon Direct was live streamed on Youtube, and they just announced Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield for Nintendo Switch! Along with male and female protagonists, three new starting pokemons were revealed as well as a whole new region called, "Galar Region."
One thing particularly to note from the video is that the game reverted back from symbol encounters(Pokemon Let's Go) to random encounters. We are unsure as of now if the decision was simply to optimize the objects rendered in the game, but personally, I'm a bit sad that they had to remove it whatever the reason. I think they did a terrific job in Pokemon Let's GO and was looking forward to see more in the future Pokemon games😥
