Christopher Buffa (Prima Games): After months of demand from millions of fans around the world, the developers at Niantic added a nearby tracker in Pokémon Go. It’s a wonderful addition to the smash hit mobile game, but there’s a catch. The nearby feature is now available across the United States and Europe. We love this game and play it all the time, so in this feature, we'll tell you how to use the cool new tracker in Pokémon Go.
When Niantic released Pokémon Go this past July, the original tracker displayed tiny feet beneath nearby Pokémon. The more feet, the closer the Pokémon was to your location. Ultimately, though, you still had to wander around in the hopes of crossing paths with that pesky Growlithe or Sandshrew. Useful, but also a bit of a pain.
The avatar update for Pokémon GO has officially been rolled out and fans are not happy about it. Some are demanding refunds for previously purchased clothing.
The new Pokemon GO update has significantly altered player avatar appearances, leading to backlash from the game's community.

They removed curves and made em look sickly. But hey now you can make a morbidly obese character, or a very buff chick. Tell me how I'm the crazy one, and how there nothing wrong with this. Gaslight me by asking why I'm bothered by video game characters not looking sexy and by telling me that i don't know how real women look like. Smh
Niantic has announced a slew of Pokemon Go updates aimed at overhauling certain aspects of the game's experience, including visuals, avatars, and more.
