© NianticPokémon GO It may not necessarily be a mobile game, but there are still some aspects of it that encourage users to exchange real-world money with the currency in the game. There are also a number of gacha-style items.
To make life a little easier for coaches, Niantic announced began testing a new feature with a “limited number” of players – allowing them to see which Pokémon might come out of the eggs in their inventory. In other words, now you have at least some the idea of what you might get from a certain egg.
“Coaches, we’re excited to share that we’re starting testing where a limited number of Coaches will be able to see which Pokémon can hatch in their Inventory!”
Niantic’s Twitter support account explains how the instructors in this test can “touch an egg” and then displays a list of possible pocket monsters that could come out of it, along with their level of rarity. Unfortunately, it won’t show if the Pokémon will be Shiny.
Here’s a look, courtesy of our Eurogamer friends. As the same website mentioned, “there are no odds” are listed and there is “no suggestion about how rare one level is than another”, so it’s up to the gaming community to work the rest.
This update stems from a request from the game’s player base in August last year – asking Niantic to reveal the game’s odds, stating how it has been a problem for years.
So what do you think? It is enough? Or do you think the developer of Pokémon GO need to do more? Comment below.
