Your Pokedex is about get a whole lot bigger as The Pokemon Company and Niantic have announced that monsters from the Sinnoh region (including Gen 4`s starters) are coming to Pokemon Go. A new trailer, which has a nice Planet Earth vibe, shows brief glimpses at a Turtwig hanging out in a grassy area, a Chimchar rousing from sleep in a cave, and a Piplup swimming beneath a layer of ice.`A vast new world is waking up around us,` the voice over says. `With more to explore than we could have ever imagined.` The trailer ends with a pair of red eyes emerging and, although the Pokemon they belong to remains cloaked in darkness, it looks very much like Giratina, a Legendary from the Sinnoh region.Pokemon Go has received fresh injections of content on a fairly regular basis, and there`s usually always some sort of event or Raid for players to enjoy. As we approach Halloween--the holiday of spooky ghosts--Niantic and the Pokemon Company has kicked off the Psychic Spectacular event, encouraging everyone to stock up on Pokemon that absolutely tear through ghosts, which seems a bit unfair if you ask me.The Psychic Spectacular event runs until 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET on October 14 and you`ll be able to catch Pokemon such as Abra, Ralts, Baltoy, and Slowpoke more frequently. Additional Field Research tasks are also available, and if you complete these you`ll get a little closer to running into Suicune.October`s Community Day, meanwhile, is set for October 21. On this day the Steel/Psychic Pokemon Beldum will become available. As of yet Niantic hasn`t confirmed what special attack it will be able to learn during the event, but dataminers previously discovered the move Meteor Mash--Metagross`s signature attack--within the game`s code.
