We are officially three full months into 2024, and Niantic has yet to address one of the biggest flaws in Pokémon Go’s content lineup. Since the calendar swapped over, we have yet to see a new Pokémon appear in the wild.
In total, we have seen six new Pokémon, not including forms or variants, introduced to Pokémon Go over three months of events—none of which have been added through the most common method of encountering Pokémon in the game, wild spawns. Instead, we have seen basically every other means utilized, limited-time Research and special Raid Days.

It’s definitely disappointing to see the lack of new wild spawns in Pokémon Go for the past few months. As an indie game enthusiast, I always appreciate when developers bring fresh content to keep things exciting. Hopefully Niantic will address this soon and introduce some new Pokémon in the wild to shake things up! What are some indie games you’ve been playing lately that have kept you engaged and entertained?
