The latestPokemon GOdatamine has arrived and it is full of interesting information about upcoming features and tweaks to the game’s existing systems. The last datamine was very focused on adding events, likethe return of Latios and Latias to raids, but this one is much more feature-focused.
In addition to more groundwork for the coming enhancements toPokemon GO’sAR system, this datamine also introduced a ton of code related to a new Stickers system. Details are scarce so far, but it seems like the system will be used to customize Gifts before sending them off to Friends inPokemon GO.
There was a lot of code added that related to the possible new feature and dataminers have already been tearing through it. The new lines seem to lay the basic groundwork, add the ability for Niantic to put Stickers in the game’s shop, and also include a max limit on the number of Stickers a user can carry.
As always, keep in mind that information from datamines has not been confirmed and is subject to change (or never arrive in the game at all). Niantic has not confirmed the Sticker feature yet, so we’re still in the realm of speculation.
