Pokémon Go gets ‘select’ monsters from the Gen 2 games Gold and Silver

Pokémon Go is expanding — but it’s not getting as many extra creatures as some fans were expecting.

Developer Niantic revealed today that it is introducing new pocket monsters to its popular mobile game. Starting today (December 12), trainers may collect Togepi, Pichu, and “select Pokémon” that first debuted in the Pokémon Gold and Silver (Gen 2) games for Game Boy. You will find these Gen 2 monsters by hatching eggs. While it looks like most of the of the 100 new critters that debuted in Gold and Silver still aren’t in the game, this is one of the biggest updates Niantic has made to Pokémon Go so far. And it will likely contribute to the game performing well in the $36.6 billion mobile-gaming industry.
