In the latest tweet from "Pokemon GO" team, Niantic has announced they are adding more Pokemon spawns in outdoor places including urban and rural communities. This means, more Pokemon will be sighted and be visiting parks, outdoor locations, in the neighborhood and possibly right in the trainer's home.

In the official Twitter account of "Pokemon GO", Niantic tweeted "Trainers, we've observed increased numbers of Pokémon sightings in parks and other outdoor locations in urban and rural areas." The increase of Pokemon sightings in the said areas are effective immediately so trainers can start their hunt anytime and expect to see more Pokemon to catch.

Of course, along with new Pokemon spawns around the neighborhood in "Pokemon GO" could also mean new nests appearing near the house of trainers. And players should notice this when they find a specific Pokemon appearing often near their area aside from Pidgey, Rattata, Caterpie, Weedle and their evolves.

The increase of Pokemon spawn announcement also included outdoor places like land areas and possibly areas far from the city. Before the announcement, places like this barely has any Pokemon spawn making it hard for trainers to play the game. But now with the new announcement, trainers living in places where there are less number of "Pokemon GO" players can also enjoy the game.

Niantic did not mention which Pokemon will be making more appearance in these areas but it is assumed it will be based on the location, what it's known for or the landmarks nearby. Areas near the beach usually spawns random water type Pokemon while land areas give Pidgey, Rattata, Weedle and Caterpie.

"Pokemon GO" is one of the most successful app games in the history of smartphones. Although its number of players have decreased since its launch, it has maintained a huge number of loyal players until today. And now Niantic is committed in providing better gameplay for everyone including this update where players can have more fun playing "Pokemon GO" in more places.
