Hello Trainers! A bundle of text updates have been pushed to Pokémon GO, and they include references to an upcoming Pokémon GO version 0.201.0, Retro GBL Cup, Great League remix. Fletchling Community Day quests and more.
Great League Remix and Retro Cup
RESOURCE ID: great_league_remix_title TEXT: Great League Remix RESOURCE ID: retro_cup_title TEXT: Retro Cup
Two new titles have been added: Great League Remix and Retro Cup. We’re still not clear if it refers to two separate cups, or is GL Remix a name for an upcoming Great League update.
In any case, it looks like we’re going to get a “Retro” Cup for sure, and it is possible that Cup will be a Great League format. Great League Remix remains a mystery. Share your ideas in the comment section!
Version 0.201.0
Patch from: 0.197.1-SHA-a183a070, 0.199.0-SHA-c67f002e, 0.201.0-SHA-f3ff6052
Pokémon GO’s 0.201.0 update is coming, as confirmed by the patch numbers and SHA cryptographic signatures. Stay tuned!

A new string showcasing increased XP from Raids has been added. Likely intended to be used on the Today View, in occasions when bonus experience is given from raids.

The seasonal section shop title will be updated from “Holiday” to “Pokémon GO Tour: Kanto” for the duration of the event.

Launch App Deep Link
Niantic is adding a permanent link that can open the Pokémon GO app once clicked. We’re guessing the intent is to launch the app from their (or a third party) website? Doesn’t work yet, we tried.

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