Catching Pokémon spawns in "Pokémon GO" is highly dependent on nest locations, climates, and areas. Niantic, the game's developer and publisher, rolled out a new update on August 22 that once again changed nest locations.
It's important for "Pokémon GO" trainers to keep track of the changes for nest and spawn locations. These areas are where particular types of Pokémon consistently flock in huge numbers, guaranteeing more than one specified Pokémon per visit. Nests yield up to five Pokémon or more per hour, according to GamePress.
Knowing the latest nest locations is vital. For instance, a "Pokémon GO" trainer can go near bodies of water to get Psyduck, but knowing a confirmed Psyduck nest will give you a 100 percent guarantee that you will catch one. This way, the process of catching Pokémon is easier for you.
Redditors on TheSilphRoad revealed the new "Pokémon GO" nest locations. New data is still pouring in, so expect more information in the near future.
Charmander's nest location remained the same, as well as Squirtle's, Ratatta's, and Zubat's, Forbes reported. Ekans' nest migrated to Pikachu's, and Pikachu's migrated to Sandshrew's. Sandshrew's nest is now in Nidoran's.
Clefairy's nest changed into Vulpix's, and Vulpix's to Jigglypuff. Reports said Jigglypuff's nest migrated to Vulpix's, but it's still unconfirmed.
Oddish nest sites rotated to Paras, Venonat to Diglett, Diglett to Meowth, Meowth to Psyduck, Psyduck to Staryu, Mankey to Growlithe, Growlithe to Poliwag, Poliwag to Abra, Abra to Machop, Machop to Bellsprout, Bellsprout to Tentacool, Tentacool to Geodude, Geodude to Ponyta, Ponyta to SlowPoké or Magnemite, SlowPoké to Magnemite, Magnemite to Seel or Doduo, Doduo to Seel, Seel to Shellder or Gastly, Shellder to Gastly or Onix, and Gastly to Drowzee or Onix.
