Pokemon Go 2

May all your Pokemon dreams come true. In addition to being to bump into speeding vehicle while collecting Pokemon out in the wild, it looks like a future update of Pokemon Go will allow you to trade Pokemon with other players.

Niantic’s had its hands full with the phenomenal launch response to Pokemon Go, but the developer appears to already be teasing what’s in store for the game. Niantic CEO John Hanke described player-to-player Pokemon training as being “kind of a core element.” (thanks, Business Insider).

Hanke said that the Pokestops and Gyms around the world are in their “most basic versions,” as they are right now, hinting at substantial additions in terms of customization. Hanke also said that the game’s core AR feature–what projects Pokemon onto the real world via your phone camera, will be taken forward as well. What’s you’re take on Pokemon go? Let us know!
