Pokemon GO generation 2 is definitely coming. Here are the things you could prepare while waiting for their arrival.
Start Collecting Chansey And Its Candies
Pokemon GO players should start collecting Chansey and its candies, according to Pokemongohub. For the unaware, its second generation evolution is Blissey. Once it comes out, this will be the ultimate Pokemon Tank. It has double the tankiness of Snorlax which is the current reigning tank in the game.
Get These Gen 1 Pokemon
Blissey is a Gen 2 Pokemon but more than a match with some Gen 1 creatures in the game. These Pokemon include Alakazam with the Psycho Cut/ Psychic moves, Dragonite and its Dragon Breath or a Gyarados with the Bite/Hydro Pump moves. Even Arcanine with its Bite/Fire Blast or Gengar with Shadow Claw/ Sludge Bomb can defeat it. The Blissey is vulnerable to them due to its low attack points.
Fire Pokemon Are Back
Player dropped the Fire-type Pokemon due to their low stamina. This was caused by the past CP rebalancing. The Water types are also simply too numerous and powerful for them. One of the strongest Gen 2 coming out though is the Bug/Steel type Scizor. This particular Pokemon though also has a very low stamina. It's particularly vulnerable to Fire types since it has double weakness to them.
Start Leveling Up Now
While collecting these Pokemon, you should also start leveling up as a trainer. It seems that trainers will be classified once the Gen 2 comes out. Being one of the higher level trainers will allow you some perks not available to the lower ones.
Pokemon GO developer Niantic has not yet set a specific date as to when the Gen 2 are arriving. Even the long announced trading system has yet to be implemented. The addition of new Pokemon and other features will certainly help rekindle the massive interest for the game once again.
