Here's How The Pokemon GO Buddy System Will Work

In their Facebook post, the "Pokemon Go" team assured fans that they are focused on eliminating bots and scrapers from the game.

The "Pokemon Go" Buddy System update is already live in Android Play Store, but iOS users have yet to see it on the App Store.

Pokemon Go may not be the all-encompassing cultural phenomenon it once was, but there are still tens of millions out there catching 'em all, and developer Niantic has begun rolling out a new update.

Buddy Pokemon is a feature that allows players to choose a Pokemon that will walk along the trainer.

Those are all the tips we've got for the buddy system so far, but as more is discovered we'll add them to our guide. As players can easily install alternative tracking apps that can help them find different Pokemon, players are able to cheat by leveling up quickly.

According to Forbes, "Pokemon Go" players will be able to use the Apple Watch to perform numerous key functions of the game, like tracking their walking distance integral to hatching Pokemon eggs, collect their bounty at local spots the game deems PokeStops, and even tracking down Pokemon they aim to add to their own caches. With Pokemon GO numbers dropping faster than the pound after Brexit, could this cause further problems for what was an global phenomenon for a number of weeks? The chosen Pokemon can eventually generate candy depending on distance traveled. And if you just rely on candy alone, it's going to take you a while.

For example, if your Pokemon is topped out in the power up department and can't be evolved, you really don't need candy for it. Making it a buddy wouldn't make sense. The Buddy Pokemon option can then be found in the settings menu between the Journal and Customise options. As mentioned earlier, switching buddy midway through a walking milestone will reset that milestone, losing progress towards your next candy. A screen will pop up and ask you if you're sure. You pick a Pokemon, any Pokemon, and they'll appear on the map around (or above, beside, and so on) as you wander around.
