So, you have an Apple smartwatch. So, you like playing Pokemon. As per the latest reports, Pokemon Go will be released for Apple Watch. The news comes after a Tweet from Pokemon Go's official Twitter handle. The company tweets, "Pokémon Go for Apple Watch is coming soon."

This news comes after a series of false speculations which came after screenshots of an email conversation which gave rise to the questions around whether the game will be released or not. The screenshots of the email said, "we have decided to stop development of the port" of Pokémon GO for the Apple Watch.

Soon, Niantic Labs, the creator of Pokemon Go threw away put away the rumours aside. They said that the news was entirely false. The game will be released on smartwatch soon; it can be ideal as it requires you to walk or run across for finding Pokemon's, which can be done well in conjugation with fitness tracking features.

 Apple's most accurate analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicted a downfall in apple's smart watch shipment this year. According to his analysis, Apple's smartwatch has not had any influence on other smartwatches like Fitbit. This mean that 'Pokemon Go' may not be able to generate the impact that it did on the mobile phone.

'Pokémon GO' would in many ways be an ideal fit for the Apple's SmartWatch, since the game is meant to be performed, well, on-the-go. The SmartWatch version was designed to include fitness tracking features and would allow players to manage most features of the game without taking their phones out. Giving players new ways to access the game, other than from their mobile devices, is a good move as it reduces the severe issues that Pokemon GO has with battery drainage.
