Pokemon Go\u2019s recent avatar update has not sat well with some fans, as many have argued that the new models look \u201chorrific\u201d and that certain body proportions look bizarre. Now, some fans have predicted that the price of certain types of cosmetics will skyrocket in the in-game store following this update. The cosmetic type in question being items that cover one\u2019s face. A post on the Pokemon Go subreddit said, \u201cNiantic playing 4D Chess: Mask sales will go through the roof as the Avatar Apocalypse spreads globally.\u201d The OP included images of the Dusclops Headwrap, Giratina Helmet, Yamask Mask, and Cofagrigus Helmet. These cosmetic items all cover the majority of the avatar\u2019s face, so trainers wouldn\u2019t have to look at the updated player faces. Others in the comments shared alternate cosmetic combos that could be used to achieve the effect. \u201cGot me that Solgaleo Mask so I dont gotta see the abomination that is my avatars face,\u201d said one fan. Another trainer said, \u201cI have always worn the Giant Pikachu Pumpkin Mask, and I will continue to do so.\u201d For those interested, the Mega Rayquaza Hat, Nihilego Hat, and Rhi-Style Helmet with Goggles are other cosmetic options that completely cover the avatar\u2019s face. Considering Niantic just rolled out the avatar update, it seems unlikely the developer will revert to the old models anytime soon. For now, Pokemon Go players will just have to try and make their avatars look as aesthetically pleasing as possible with the new system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pokemon Go fans predict certain cosmetic prices will rise after avatar update NianticSome Pokemon Go fans have predicted that certain cosmetic prices will skyrocket following the controversial avatar update.
