As we enter the holiday season, Pokemon Shuffle is getting in on the fun as well. A special stage featuring a Delibird (Holiday) has started, as well as a safari that features Lillipup, Herdier, Stoutland, and Holiday versions of Vanillite, Cubchoo, Snover, and Pikachu. These two stages will run until December 26. For the Delibird stage, Delibird gets easier to catch each day.
Additionally, there are stages for Reshiram and Black Kyruem, both of which run until the 27th. Happy Holidays, and catch ’em all!
Cleffa and Igglybuff are Pokemon GO’s newest creatures that hatch out of 2km eggs. Pichu and Togepi are relegated to 5km eggs. On top of that, three other new Pokemon are in Pokemon GO.
Elekid, Magby, and Smoochum appear to be the final new additions – for now. These ones hatch out of 10km eggs.
Niantic will be adding more Pokemon from generation 2 over the next few months, but specifics are currently unknown.
We have several months to go until Free Comic Book Day 2017, yet VIZ Media is already confirming its involvement. Moreover, the publisher is planning something special for Zelda fans.
VIZ Media will make a special book available containing excerpts from the manga adaptations of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It will span 32 pages.
Free Comic Book Day 2017 will take place on May 6, 2017. You’ll be able to pick up the Zelda special from participating comic book stores.
Nintendo updated the Super Mario Run stickers for iMessage within the past week. These new ones are pictured above in the top row, and can be used now. The Super Mario Run stickers are now at version 1.1.
If the Xbox store webpage is anything to go by, it seems that Yooka-Laylee will be released in April.
The page has Yooka-Laylee listed for release on April 11. A Brazilian retailer also posted its own release date of April 7 for physical versions. While this is by no means an official confirmation, one could assume that we’re likely close to an actual official announcement from Playtonic in the near future.
The only slightly concerning thing here is that a physical version of Yooka-Laylee is nowhere to be seen. Missing out on a retail release wouldn’t be entirely surprising given the state of the console, but we’ll have to see what Playtonic and Team17 are planning.
