Pokémon Go’s ‘baby’ update disappoints some fans

Niantic has revealed that it is releasing new creatures in Pokémon Go, but many fans are not satisfied with the developer’s latest addition to 2016’s biggest mobile game.

The update, which is live now, only introduces a handful of new pocket monsters. In the eggs you find at Pokéstops, you can now hatch creatures like Cleffa and Igglybuff. These are creatures that first debuted in Pokémon Gold and Silver on Game Boy in 1998, which represent the second generation of Pokémon games. Gold and Silver introduced 100 new critters that were not in the original of Pokémon Red or Blue. They also weren’t in the original version of Pokémon Go. But fans were expecting Niantic to update its location-based digital-animal-capturing game with all 100 Gen 2 creatures. Instead, it looks like players can expect somewhere between four and eight new monsters as part of this event.
