The new Pokemon Go update will be released tomorrow, boasting a ton of new bonuses that will help boost those who know the best way to use them
More items will be awarded from every PokeStop you visit, while Buddy Pokémon will find Candies four times as fast for the duration of the Rock Type Event.
There will also be more rare Rock Type spawn appearing, meaning fans missing out on Omanytes, Aerodactyl, Kabutos, and their Evolutions will want to keep an eye out.
“Pokemon Go was developed for people to easily experience classic Pokémon gameplay on their mobile device and catch Pokémon in the real world,” Niantic explain.

“Congratulations, TeamMystic! You caught the most Grass-type Pokémon last weekend. You’ll get them next time, TeamValor and TeamInstinct,” reads a Niantic tweet.
