Data mining is underway on Pokemon GO’s latest update. The Silph Road reports on the findings, which point to a few new features.

Let’s start by going over some of the things we’ve sort of heard about before as well as the less interesting discoveries. First, additional code has now been added pointing to the integration of shiny Pokemon. Niantic also included sponsor placeholders for “GRILL” and “SMOKER” that go along with the “SPATULA”, “THERMOMETER”, and “KNIFE” types from the last update. Tweaks are also made to the Sightings and Nearby system so that PokeStop images can load asynchronously without freezing gameplay.

Audio files – specifically “cries” – now exist for the next 100 Pokemon. Whereas version 0.47 only went up to the first 151 Pokemon, data is now in place up though 251.

The latest issue of Nintendo Dream has a feature on Switch. As part of that, the Japanese magazine sent a few questions Nintendo’s way.
