"Pokemon GO" by Niantic Labs is bringing monster hunters customized PokeStops, trading and other capabilities. While new features are being added to "Pokemon GO," players are discovering just how much Niantic made available on this iteration of the Nintendo franchise.
Chicago Sun Times reports the 2016 San Diego Comic Con brought updates on "Pokemon GO." According to Niantic Labs CEO John Hanke, "Pokemon GO" will deliver the promised social element of the new iteration from the Nintendo franchise.
Niantic Labs is currently prioritizing adding trading capabilities for "Pokemon GO." Pocket-Lint cites IGN in reporting that "Pokemon GO" will soon allow players to trade spare pocket monsters.
The media outlet highlights that this addition by Niantic Labs "Pokemon GO" inherits from an intrinsic feature of the classic Nintendo game. While "Pokemon GO" supposedly focuses on being a social experience as opposed to console "Pokemon" prioritizing the competitive nature of the game, Niantic Labs' offering will still enable monster hunters to "catch them all."
Pocket-Lint further reports that "Pokemon GO" will have customized PokeStops. Customized PokeStops would allow "Pokemon GO" players to enhance the Poke egg and Poke Ball hunting abilities.
Meanwhile, as the craze over the Niantic Labs game continues, "Pokemon GO" tips are high in demand. At best "Pokemon GO" tips seek to enhance gameplay and experience.
According to Kotaku, with the use of external app PokeDetector, "Pokemon GO" players no longer have to keep their eyeballs glued to the screen to catch a Pokemon. The media outlet, however, highlights that PokeDetector uses unofficial "Pokemon GO" code so Pokemon players should use this at their risk.

BGR recommends a similar "Pokemon GO" "partner" app. This especially comes in handy when the "Pokemon GO" Nearby Tracker gets glitchy.
By switching to Ingress, which works with both iPhone and Android OS, "Pokemon GO" players can circumvent a glitchy Neaby Tracker. The media outlet highlights that Ingress uses the same data map as "Pokemon GO" and can detect Pokemon monsters as "exotic matter" or XM.
