Nintendo began distributing Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ 1.2.0 update earlier this week. While it brings along new characters and seasonal events, what players may not know is that big changes have been made to bug spawn rates.

Twitter user Ninji, who datamined the game previously and has provided accurate information about New Horizons, shared the discovery. After digging through the code, it was determined that spawn rates have been unified for all insects. Whereas something like the agrias butterfly used to be less common in April than in its other available months, that’s no longer the case.

Here’s a closer look at how things have changed with the latest update:

The Pokemon Company kicked off Pokemon: Twilight Wings earlier this year. The animated mini-series is designed to give fans more insight into the Galar region and is based around Pokemon Sword/Shield.

In the latest episode, Early-Evening Waves, fans noticed that Pokemon like Dewgong appeared despite not being available in the actual games. That prompted The Pokemon Company to issue an apology on its Japanese Twitter page today. The message was primarily aimed at those who may have felt mislead in any way.

Pokemon: Twilight Wings still has three more episodes to air. Previous episodes can be found here, here, here, and here.
