>>56086801Niantic is WAY overdue for a new gamemode; Pokémon GO has been basically the same game since late 2019. The only things they've added since then have been either additional mechanics that build off of older gamemodes (megas in raids/PvP, shadow raids, egg from Rocket admins, new gym look, daily adventure incense) or new abilities that give bonuses that don't change the main game loop in any particular way besides making things slightly more efficient for veterans (routes, adventure moves, mega/primal candy bonuses). This game has desperately needed something new and, at least according to recent interviews, Niantic seems to be finally acknowledging that fact.
