We have known for a short time thatULTRA BONUS Pokémon GO will allow us to capture the very first 5G Pokémon in September. If Tic, Ratentif and Ponchiot will soon be in the game, there is no doubt that their friends will soon join them.
The fifth generation is, to date, the one which contains the most Pokémon, namely 156 new creatures.
The new starters
Developments to prepare for
Unfortunately (or fortunately), there are NO Pokémon from the older generations that can evolve into the 5th generation. The 156 new Pokémon will therefore only be obtainable in the wild, in Raids, in Eggs, via special quests or via trade.
However, don’t forget that a new item will be available for 5G: the Unova Stone. This will probably allow you to evolve certain 5G Pokémon in addition to candy.
Pokémon that could use a Unova Stone
- Chinchidou in Pashmilla
- Lamprey in Ohmassacre
- Munna and Mushana
- Doudouvet in Farfaduvet (or a Sun Stone)
- Chlorobule in Fragilady (or a Sun Stone)
- Melancolux in Lugulabre
Victini
Just like Mew, Celebi, and Jirachi, Victini is a Mythical Pokémon that will probably be obtainable through special quests from Professor Willow. Be careful though, there are still a few Mythicals from 4G that have not yet been unlocked.
The Legendaries
The Musketeers Trio
In 5G, the first trio of legendaries is composed of Cobaltium, Terrakium and Viridium.
The Trio of Geniuses
The second trio of Legendaries is composed of Boreas, Fulguris and Demeteros.
Be careful, these three Pokémon have a Totemic Forme. So expect both versions to be present in Raids.
Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem
Regarding Mythical Pokémon, we do not know if they will be available through special quests or in Raids:
- Victini
- Keldeo
- Meloetta
- Genesect
Theories about Regional Pokémon
Each generation of Pokémon on Pokémon GO has its share of Regionals. As a reminder, regional Pokémon are Pokémon that are only available in certain regions of the world. For example, Mr. Mime is dedicated to Europe. Rest assured, Niantic regularly offers events to capture these famous regionals.
Regarding 5G, here are some assumptions:
- Feuillajou, Flamajou and Flotajou will probably be distributed in the 3 vertical slices of the planisphere
- The Judokrak and Karaclée duo: east and west
- Bargantua and Mamanbo: south and north
- Maracachi: in the cities surrounding the deserts
- Cryptero: For this one, we think it will be like Spiritombe, a reward from special quests on Halloween
- Carapagos and Arkéapti: in the islands
- Emolga: England or Canada
- Frisian; probably exclusive to the USA
Vivaldaim: the Pokémon with 4 seasons
It’s very likely that 5G will bring a new feature to the game: the importance of seasons to capture different forms of Pokémon.
