Is it a frustrating experience when it comes to catching rare Pokemon in Pokemon GO? Is that where the majority of your Pokeballs are wasted on? We guess to be fair if they were easy then there wouldn’t be that satisfaction, right? However at a certain point, being too hard just makes it annoying rather than challenging.The good news is that the folks at Niantic have heard your cries for help and have since announced they’ll be taking steps to fix it. The developer has announced that in an upcoming update, they will be adding a feature that will make it a little easier for gamers to catch rare Pokemon.
“We are adding a new feature which grants a catch bonus when you earn medals based on catching certain types of Pokémon (Kindler, Psychic, Gardener, etc.). These new bonuses will give you a better chance of capturing Pokémon with a related type. For example, as you reach a higher tier for the Kindler Medal, your bonus to catch Fire-type Pokémon such as Charmander, Vulpix and Ponyta increases.”
For Pokemon of multiple types, basically the bonus will average out for each type. There is no word on when the update will be released, but this is something gamers can look forward to if they’re currently experiencing some frustration with the existing system.
