Recently Niantic announced the addition of two new features for Pokemon Go, which included daily free boxes and daily guaranteed Pokemon encounters.
The daily guaranteed Pokemon encounters feature allows trainers to get a special visit from Professor Willow. And he will tell you that he has been working on a new and special kind of incense. This incense will only be active after Professor Willow gives it to you, attracting a Pokemon once every day that will appear only for you. Trainers can check the game every day to see which Pokemon appears.
Daily encounter feature disabled temporarily
Many trainers have been reporting that they are encountering the same Pokemon continuously every day. And in addition to that, some trainers are experiencing several issues related to this new feature. Trainers are eagerly waiting for Niantic to provide a definite solution for the issues experienced by them.
Today, Niantic have finally addressed these issues related to the new feature. The official Twitter account of Niantic Support made an official announcement, stating that they have temporarily disabled the daily Pokemon encounter feature. And they further stated that they are looking into the issues regarding this feature. So, it is a moment of relief for the trainers who are facing this issue. We will provide you with all the information once Niantic fixes finds a solution. You can take a look at the announcement provided below.
