Pokémon GO seasonal update brings new Pokémon; More coming in 2017

Pokémon GO was hit with a seasonal update today that brought new Pokémon to the mobile game, as well as the promise of more Pokémon in the future!

According to the latest press release from Niantic, a seasonal update has made "Togepi, Pichu, and several more select Pokémon" available in Pokémon GO. While  the rest of the Pokémon have yet to be hatched by eager trainers, we do know that the additional Pokémon are from the Gold and Silver games. On top of that, there is something else we know about the update – it brought a limited edition Pikachu with it!

Pikachu has been decked out with with a "festive" holiday hat to help celebrate the season. This special Pikachu can be caught from December 12, 2016, 10:00 A.M. PST to December 29, 2016, 11:00 A.M. PST, so make sure you grab it while you can!

A new Pokémon GO video came along with the seasonal update announcement and teased that these  Pokémon are the first of the new  Pokémon that are coming "over the next few months."
