Data-mined code shows the second generation of Pokemon could be coming to Pokemon GO

It looks like the second generation of Pokemon are about to make their way into Pokemon GO. Code in the latest update has revealed that Pokemons 152 to 251 are waiting to join the party.

A bit of data mining by The Silph Road has shown that the names of all those Pokemon are now referenced in the code of the Android APK. They appeared after the game was updated to version 0.45.

None of the new monsters have movesets yet, so it's going to require a bit more work to actually fit them into the game.

Interestingly one move has been added to the game though. It's called Transform, and it could mean that the elusive Ditto is finally about to make an appearance.

That said it's not tied into any move sets either, so it's possible Ditto could shapeshift as soon as it leaps into a scrap.

We will, of course, keep you updated with any more information about the potential new Pokemon as and when we get it.
