0.223.0 APK Breakdown: Hints at Raid Ball Selection, Hoopa’s Signature Moves, and more!

Posted in

Hello Trainers! 0.223.0 is currently rolling out to a device near you and it brings with it some pretty neat updates hints we may get to select from different Pokéballs during raid encounters, some nice visual indicators when our Pokébox and Item inventory are full, and more!

You can check out the original post on the PokéMiners website here.

You know the drill by now, everything in this article is datamined, and therefore subject to change or not even being released at all.

So let’s get into it!

Raid Ball Selection?

set_ActiveRaidBallSelectionButton
SelectPremierPokeball
raidBallSelectionButton

It appears that buttons have been added to change your Pokéball during raid encounters. There aren’t any new Pokéballs in this update, but as the Pokéminers point out… the Master Ball is still in the game.

It was suggested to me that this could be for Beast Balls for the eventual release of the Ultra Beasts. (Thanks Bobbinghead)

I’d love some repeat balls personally. There are a lot of Pokéballs that exist in the core series games that are not in Pokémon Go.

New Moves

.V0353_MOVE_PSYCHIC_FANGS
.V0355_MOVE_HYPERSPACE_HOLE
.V0354_MOVE_HYPERSPACE_FURY

Psychic fangs is the exclusive move for Shinx Community Day.
Hyperspace Hole is the signature move of Hoopa Confined.
Hyperspace Fury is the signature move of Hoopa Unbound.

Perhaps the speculation that we’re going to get Hoopa Unbound at the end of the season is right.

Quality of Life: Full Item & Pokémon Collection

Credit to the Pokéminers for the images in this section.

Pokébox Full

The total number of caught Pokémon will turn red now when your Pokébox is full.

The center of the icon at the bottom of the map screen will also turn orange when your Pokébox is full.

Item Inventory Full

The item number will also turn red when your item box is full.

Pokémon GO Plus Simulator

PgpSimulatorSettingsGuiController
pgpSimulatorSettingsGuiPrefab
ClickPgpSim
pgpSimulatorMenuRoot

These were added to the Pokémon Go Plus GUI, and the settings. This could be Niantic testing the Pokémon Go Plus functionality, or it could be a virtual Go Plus that’s part of the actual game and not a physical bracelet. The latter would most likely be part of a paid subscription service.

Max Frame Rate Unlocked!

set_UnlockedBaseFramerate
UNLOCK_BASE_FRAMERATE_SETTING
UnlockFramerateClicked
unlockFramerateToggle
unlockFramerateToggleText
dividerFramerateToggle

This section has been added to the advanced settings and unlocks the max frame rate of your device when it’s enabled. I’m sure this will be great for visuals, and not so great for your battery life.

Postcard Updates

A lot of the Postcard updates were deobfuscated, so the PokéMiners have been able to unearth a lot of details on updates to the Postcards.

The Postcard Itself

Along with what was already known about the Postcards, they will also store the name and codename of the trainer who created the postcard, a note with the postcard, and the giftbox the card is linked to.

There’s no indication these will be able to be shared in between games, so the codename is an interesting addition.

Postcard Sharing

SHARE_WITH_FRIENDS
DO_NOT_SHARE

You’ll be given the option to share your trainer info on the Postcard or opt-out.

Postcard Options

It was previously reported that you would be able to Create, Delete, and Send Postcards. The PokéMiners have confirmed with the deobfuscation, that this is correct. Postcards have been mined as far back as 0.205.0!

Mementos

Mementos will contain the following information: Type, Location, When they were added, and what Postcard they go with.

There is also a list of Mementos, which suggests you might be able to have several of them at the same time?  The Memento list contains The Type of the Memento, The S2 cell location bounds, and the Start/End time of the Bounding.

Gift Details State

Lucky Friend Syncing

The game will now sync lucky friends between friends, which should fix the bug where one friend displays as lucky and the other doesn’t.

That’s all for now trainers, stay safe out there!
