Catch bonus and Gym Training change update for Pokémon GO rolling out

The latest Pokémon Go update is beginning to roll out for both Android and iOS. If this update is like previous ones then it could be out today, tomorrow or next week. The update doesn’t contain many surprises as Niantic had blogged about the changes in previous blog posts.

Here’s the changelog.

Pokémon GO is in the process of being updated to version 0.41.2 for Android and 1.11.2 for iOS devices. Below are some release notes and comments from our development team.

Catch Bonus: Trainers can earn a catch bonus for a Pokémon type as they catch more of a specific type.

Updated Gym Training: Trainers can now bring six Pokémon to battle at friendly Gyms. The CP of the Pokémon you are battling may be temporarily adjusted lower for your training session.

Egg & Incubator Screens: These will periodically update the distance walked without the Trainer needing to close and reopen the screen.

Fixed several audio issues.

Decreased the evolution animation time.
