With the Summer of Go nearing its end, Niantic are giving players a few more opportunities for hard-to-come-by \u2018mons while paving the way for completely new encounters, like Mega Scizor Raids and Vikavolt. A bug-centric celebration is about to go off in Pokemon Go, and it\u2019s reminded some players that we still haven\u2019t gotten Kecleon after years of people wanting him in the game. Admittedly, while Kecleon isn\u2019t a bug-type, Niantic\u2019s latest public post had some people fooled for a minute that it was finally coming in PoGo \u2013 but that\u2019s not the case. Kecleon in Pokemon Go? On August 8, Niantic had a bit of fun when reminding trainers of the Bug Out prizes and which creatures they would soon be able to encounter across the globe. \u201cPansage and a certain unknown Pokemon will be appearing globally in the wild and in raids during Ultra Unlock: Bug Out!\u201d they said. That bit about the \u201cunknown Pokemon\u201d immediately threw trainers for a loop who thought it was meant to usher in the Color Changing Pokemon\u2019s long-awaited entry to the AR title. Unfortunately, a closer look at the post immediately shows what the devs were talking about in the first place with a brand new \u2018Unown\u2019 Pokemon variation \u2018T\u2019 coming to PoGo. Niantic has said before that they want to release Kecleon at some point in the future, but are holding out for a proper introduction to the world of augmented reality. \u201cKecleon has unique properties in the main series games, abilities that no other Pok\u00e9mon shares so we want to make sure we do right by its original design when incorporating it into augmented reality,\u201d Pok\u00e9mon Go\u2019s Director of Global Product Marketing Michael Steranka told TRG. So it still might be a while until we get Kecleon in Pokemon Go, but at least the dev team has the elusive \u2018mon on their radar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Niantic trolls Pokemon Go players wanting Kecleon in The Bug Out event Pokemon Go players feel like they got trolled after Niantic teased a \u201ccertain unknown Pokemon\u201d for the Bug Out event \u2013 and it wasn\u2019t Kecleon.
