Earlier this week, we heard about a new Team Medallion that had been datamined for Pokemon GO. Niantic has now made it official.

Just as was leaked, the Team Medallion lets players change teams. It can be purchased once every 365 days for 1,000 PokeCoins. Niantic will officially introduce the item on February 26 at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET.

The GO Snapshot that was revealed alst week by Niantic is now available for Android users in Pokemon GO.

However, at this time, only trainers that are over the level of 5 will have access to the feature. This is part of the gradual rollout that the developers intend to do in order to fine tune the addition.

Details can be seen in the official tweet below.

Niantic has announced a Special Raid Weekend for Pokemon GO. Starting on Friday at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET, the Legendary Pokemon Latias will be available in Raid Battles. You may also encounter Shiny Latias if you’re lucky enough.

The event ends on February 25 at the same time.

Polygon recently spoke with Niantic product manager Matt Slemon about all things Pokemon GO. Slemon talked about the mobile game’s past, present, and future.

As for what lies ahead, Slemon said that Pokemon GO is almost at “the point where our original launch trailer promise has been delivered”. While there will be “small iterations to our existing features”, the team is now going to concentrate a bit less on traditional Pokemon features and focus on “features that are more about really showing what it means to be an AR real-world game”.

Pokemon GO appears to be preparing for a new item that will allow players to change teams. “Team Medallion” seems to be coming in the next update based on what has been datamined by Chrales, which lets players transfer to another team. You’ll need to pay for the item, but it can only be purchased from the shop once every 365 days.

Note that there is no confirmed pricing for Team Medallion at this time. Niantic will presumably have more to say about this very soon.
