Casters at the Los Angeles regionals Pokémon tournament have this weekend revealed some new information for the next season of Pokémon GO!
The next season of Pokémon GO will be known as ‘Shared Skies’, and an array of new moves and move updates were teased for the GO Battle League.
Season of Shared Skies
The season of Shared Skies will being on 1st June 2024, 10:00am local time, as the season of World of Wonders ends. It is an interesting choice of name, implying a potential focus on types, and Pokémon that can fly. A very low resolution image that appears to be the season logo has been shared on social media:
The background is a mixture of different shining colours in triangular shapes, it doesn’t really give much away as to any potential season long theme or concept.
We expect more information to drop on the new season during the upcoming week!
