In Pokémon GO, a new find among the trainers is causing a lot of conversation. We at MeinMMO have looked at exactly which monster was discovered and show you the reactions of the players.
What is this find? The Pokéminers, a group of dataminers, periodically scan the Pokémon GO game code. They then make their finds publicly available to other players.
In their current search, the Pokéminers have come across a new Pokémon, which is causing a lot of conversation in the community. We explain why.
This new Pokemon has been found
As you can see from the current reddit post by user martycochrane, the Pokéminers have discovered a new mega development in addition to a sticker of the ultra beast Masskito, which is celebrating its release at the GO Fest in Seattle. So the first data about Mega Simsala was stored in the game.
While finds of Pokémon, such as the new legendary Galar Pokémon, usually lead to a lot of anticipation among trainers on social networks, the Psychic Pokémon Mega Simsala, on the other hand, provides some topics of conversation.
Coaches have different opinions about the find
Desire for another Mega: If you look at the comments on Twitter and reddit about the new Pokéminers find, you will see that opinions sometimes differ widely. The reason for this is a previous find from the beginning of July 2022.
In addition to the costumed Pokémon that could be found at the anniversary event, the Pokéminers also encountered Mega Scizor. Some would like the Bug and Steel Pokémon to be in the game first, so they’re hoping for a release soon.
Alternatively, they would enjoy other Megas, such as Mega Mewtwo. But the coaches don’t necessarily agree on that either. So you can read the following in the comments on reddit:
But Simsala could just be there for whenever in the future. That doesn’t necessarily mean soon. I personally would like to see another fighting Mega like Meditalis, preferably after Scizor.”
“I’m Ready for Mega Simsala”
However, not all Trainers would be upset if Mega Simsala entered the battlefield first. Reddit user GZBZM notes that it has the fourth highest attack of all Pokémon, including unreleased specimens such as Mega Mewtwo.
This is also confirmed by the current figures from gamepress. With a strong attack and a decent moveset, Mega Simsala could rank among the 10 best psycho attackers in Pokémon GO after its release.
More positive feedback: But other trainers are looking forward to a release of Mega Simsala and can’t wait. This is particularly evident in the comments on Twitter:
When is Mega Simsala coming? Since the data is not official information, but finds from the game’s source code, Niantic can change this data at any time or even decide against a release.
Whether and when Mega Simsala will finally come into play and whether other Megas will be unlocked before then remains to be seen for the moment. If there is official information from Niantic, you can find out from us on MeinMMO.
How do you like the latest Pokeminers find? Would you be excited about a release of Mega Simsala? Or do you also hope that another Mega will come into play first? Feel free to write us your opinion here on MeinMMO in the comments and exchange ideas with other trainers.
The next event in Pokémon GO is on Sunday. We’ll show you how to best use Community Day with Staralili.
