However, in order to capture every Pokemon in Pokemon GO, players will need to explore the real world, with the game's upcoming update encouraging exploration and battles.
The new Pokemon GO Rivals Week begins Saturday, May 4, and will entice players with a plethora of exciting items and limited-time bonuses. Players can expect to receive 10 XP from spinning Photo Discs at Pokemon GO Gyms as well as double the Catch Candy.
