Pokémon Go added a new pokéstop to commemorate the late Desmond Amofah, better known as YouTube personality Etika. On Twitter, Reversal — a Netherlands-based YouTuber who’s been campaigning for a pokéstop for Etika since last year — posted an image of the new spot. “Remembering the passing of Etika, JoyconBoyz forever,” the description reads.
It looks like one of the most anticipated Pokémon Go features is finally on its way. In a series of tweets, developer Niantic teased player-versus-player battles. It’s a feature the developer has promised for some time, and it’s an integral part of the traditional Pokémon experience. In fact, battles were part of the initial pitch when Pokémon Go was first announced back in 2015. But, much like trading, battles took longer than anticipated to actually implement in the game. Unfortunately, right now, we don’t know anything about how the feature will work, but Niantic does say that trainer battles will be coming “soon.”
