Team GO Rocket, along with their possession of Shadow Pokemon, have officially invaded Pokemon GO. Players can now encounter and battle the evil gang, catch the Shadow Pokemon, and purify these creatures.

Below are the full details on what’s happening, straight from Niantic:

Yet more Fire Emblem: Three Houses content has arrived in Fire Emblem Heroes. A new Tap Battle: Illusory Dungeon is available from today till August 15. It features music from Fire Emblem: Three Houses, including its main theme. As always, the first 40 floors are unlocked today, with 20 more being added each day until Sunday.

Also, since it’s Thursday, Tactics Drills has been updated. Two maps have been added to Skill Studies – “Three Houses 1” and “Three Houses 2”. Clearing them gets you 300 feathers each.

Earlier today, the date and details for the next Community Day were revealed. Niantic has now shared a new trailer in promotion of the day.

The footage shows a player interacting with a wild Ralts. Those interested can view the video below.

Cygames has confirmed that a new Gala Dragalia event is set to go live in Dragalia Lost on July 26th. 

The event is set to last until July 31st and will give players the opportunity for increased five star appearance rates. More details can be viewed below.

Dragalia Lost has done fairly well for itself despite a couple of hurdles. For one thing, it continues to generate revenue even though it is still only available in just eleven markets. The game is also a totally original IP.

Since launch, Dragalia Lost has earned over $100 million worldwide. It has now overtaken Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp as Nintendo’s second highest earning mobile title. Fire Emblem Heroes is still well ahead of the pack at nearly $600 million.

Niantic has announced that Ralts will be the next Pokemon featured for the latest Pokemon GO Community Day. The event itself will be held on August 3.

Just like with previous events, Ralts will have an unspecified exclusive move. Other bonuses include 1/4 egg hatch distance and 3-hour Lures.

Pokemon Masters does have some multiplayer thanks to co-op, but PvP isn’t included. That means competing against other players isn’t possible.

Explaining the decision, DeNA director of product marketing Derrick Kuan said that the team wants Pokemon Masters to be more “amateur friendly,” and emphasize teamwork. Producer Yu Sasaki also chimed in with the following:

USGamer recently went hands-on with Pokemon Masters and spoke with DeNA director of product marketing Derrick Kuan. According to Kuan, trainers from Pokemon Sword/Shield won’t be in Pokemon Masters – at least not immediately.

DeNA has confirmed that limited time events are planned for Pokemon Masters. These will happen on a regular basis, the company says.

In Pokemon Masters, alternate trainers will be included in the form of Sygma Suit trainers. As one example, there’s a Sygma Suit Brock with a Pokemon other than Onix. Unfortunately, producer Yu Sasaki won’t say how many Sygma Suit alternate trainers there will be in total, but noted that it “is going to be an exciting feature for the game.”
