‘Pokémon Go’ Version 1.19 Update: Mass Transfer Option And Minor Fixes To Buddy System Added

Lost among the huge Gen 2 confirmation for Pokémon Go is a brand new update for the mobile game that brings the option to transfer more than one Pokémon to Professor Willow as well as some minor fixes to the Buddy System.

This update to Pokémon Go is version 1.19 on Android and 0.49 on iOS, just in case you wanted to check what version you have.

Here’s a rundown of all the changes coming to Pokémon Go.

• Trainers will be able to transfer multiple Pokémon at a time to Professor Willow. To use this function, press and hold on a Pokémon.
• Pokémon type icons have been added to the Gym battle approach and Gym battle screen.
• The total Candy count for your Buddy Pokémon has been added to the buddy information screen.
• The total kilometers a buddy has walked has been added to the information screen of each Pokémon that has ever been your buddy.
• Minor text fixes.

The changes to the Buddy System are minor but do streamline some of the functionality of the option. If you just press on your Buddy Pokémon, the information screen will finally show how many candies you gained, instead of having to back out and go into your Pokémon box and search for your Buddy Pokémon. How much you’ve walked with that Pokémon will also appear.
