Morpeko debuts in Pokémon GO

Morpeko will make its Pokémon GO debut! Morpeko will charge into Pokémon GO, changing the way you battle! Certain Pokémon—like Morpeko—will be able to change form in battle each time it uses a Charged Attack, unleashing new possibilities for you and your battle team.

Initially, Morpeko will only be able to change forms when battling Team GO Rocket or in the GO Battle League.

Morpeko’s special move is Aura Wheel

• Morpeko will know the Charged Attack Aura Wheel (Electric) while it is in Full Belly Mode.
• Morpeko will know the Charged Attack Aura Wheel (Dark) while it is in Hangry Mode.

Aura Wheel is a move focused on Trainer Battles. It has 100 power and increases the user’s Attack by one stage.
