Unova Pokémon in Pokémon GO (Nintendo/The Pokémon Company)
Smartphone juggernaut Pokémon GO has expanded its creature pool once again, bringing in Pokémon from the series’ Unova region. Select Pokémon hailing from Black and White are now available to catch and hatch, including the three starters: Snivy, Tepig and Oshawott. As expected, some Pokémon will be region specific; Durant will reside in the Eastern hemisphere, Heatmor will occupy the Western hemisphere and the elemental monkey trio of Pansage, Pansear and Panpour only roam in specific regions. Following the standard set by the Sinnoh Stone, this update also introduces the Unove Stone, which is required to evolve certain creatures. Currently, the only way to acquire one of the rocks is to perform a Research Breakthrough, requiring players to complete seven research tasks.
