Key features of update includes:

- With the introduction of Daily Bonuses and as added treat, from November 7 to 11, you’ll find more Pokémon out in the world. Moreover, PokéStops will grant more items! Yes — this means more Great Balls, and for Trainers that are level 20 and above — more Ultra Balls!
- Gym Prestige updates:
- When you defeat the Gym Leader at a rival Gym, there will be a brief period of time where only you will be able to place a Pokémon in the open Gym.
- The amount of Prestige a rival Gym loses when you defeat a regular Gym member has increased. The amount of Prestige gained by training at a friendly Gym has been lowered.
- Minor text fixes
Even better, last week Niantic also announced the diversification of common Pokémon spawns. It is expected you’ll encounter other Pokémon than Pidgey, Rattata and Zubat.
Professor Willow has discovered that you may encounter other Pokémon where Pidgey, Rattata, and Zubat were previously more commonly found.
