New app icon
Pokémon GO is getting a new icon, live in the new update. The icon looks a lot like the previous one: a PokéBall, but this time it’s covered in confetti.


Mr. Rime is coming to town
MR_RIME_NORMAL MR_RIME_SHADOW MR_RIME_PURIFIED .V0866_POKEMON_MR_RIME
It looks like Mr. Rime is getting ready to make his grand entrance in Pokémon Go. For those who don’t know, Mr. Rime is the Galarian evolution of Mr. Mime.
New suits: they are new, right?
You said you loved Pokemon in disguise … yeah, there’s no going back now. This winter two new Pikachu outfits will arrive, Delibird and Cubchoo. Also, what kind of costume are they going to put on Delibird? A beard?

Buy a remote raid pass
OnRemoteRaidShopButtonPressed
As announced in the release notes, you will soon be able to buy earlier. In theory this button should be available on the raid screen, but let’s see if the bugs make it through.
Select All button in Pokémon search
Is here! It’s finally here !! Perform a search, select a Pokémon, and the Select All button will appear. This is huge, it will take a long time to arrive, and it is finally here.

Pokemon Tagging
We briefly mentioned Pokémon Tags in our 0.191.1 APK Teardown: XL Candy and Pokémon HOME article, and honestly, we forgot about that. Well 0.193 has a lot more information, including two new icons and code snippets that describe the capabilities of the tags:
tagDetailHeader tagTitle tagColorDot tagPokemonCount editTagButton editTagButtonObject titleUnderliner tagDetailHeaderRoot tagPageTitle tagTabRoot createTagButton tagButton tagButtonText ClickTagButton
Create, edit, delete … pretty standard stuff. There is a lot more to this, but this is the most exciting.
CREATE_TAG EDIT_TAG deleteTagButton
Inventory updates
regularTransferButton regularTransferBackground regularTransferText activeTransferButtonColor inactiveTransferButtonColor activeTransferBackgroundColor inactiveTransferBackgroundColor activeTransferTextColor inactiveTransferTextColor
I’m not sure what inactive transfer means … Apparently, there are also references to Let’s Go transfers and transfers from home.
Recent and favorite searches
ManageFavoriteSearchGuiController allSearchIconsGuiControllerPrefab recommendedSearchIconsGuiControllerPrefab manageFavoriteSearchGuiControllerPrefab
Looks like GUIs for recent and favorite searches have been added.
Add and remove favorite searches
AddRecentSearch AddFavoriteSearch RemoveFavoriteSearch SetFavoriteSearchTitle .get_RecentAndFavoriteSearchesBase64 .get_RecentSearches .get_FavoriteSearches RecentSearches FavoriteSearches
We can also add and delete favorite searches.
PDI contributions
poi_contrib_limit_photo poi_contrib_limit_ar poi_contrib_unavailable_disabled POI_CONTRIB__MIN_PLAYER_LEVEL_KEY POI_CONTRIB__DISTANCE_LIMIT_KEY POI_CONTRIB__ADD_PHOTO_LIMIT_KEY POI_CONTRIB__ADD_SCAN_LIMIT_KEY POI_CONTRIB__N_LIMIT_RESET_KEY
A couple of new icons for POI Contributions, which is an interesting name considering it’s not used anywhere else before.
Image gallery and voting
ImageGallery.dll
Niantic has previously announced that PokéStops will have more than one image, very similar to how portals work in Ingress. This looks like they could be using the actual Ingress Image Gallery. Which makes sense, the images are already there.
Full screen access
GET_IMAGE_GALLERY_SETTINGS OnScanPoiClicked OnGalleryClicked scanPoiButton galleryButtonObject scanPoiImage galleryButtonImage
These were added to the full screen view of a POI image. It looks like you will be able to access them from that screen.
Image upload limit
.get_IsPoiImageGalleryEnabled .get_MaxPeriodicImageLoadedCount .set_MaxPeriodicImageLoadedCount
It seems that only a certain number of images can be uploaded at a time.
Image shift
GalleryImageSelected imageGalleryRowPrefab GALLERY_IMAGES_PER_ROW IImageGalleryScrollerCell ImageGalleryScrollerCell imageDataList imageIndex OnDragSendMainImageIndex ImageDetailsScroller currentImageIndex OnScrollCellInitialized WhenScrollerIsMoving ResizeAndPosition
We can scroll through the images, which will be formatted to fit your screen.
Voting images
imagesToVoteFor imagesToUnvoteFor .get_UpVoted .set_UpVoted .get_VoteCount .set_VoteCount .get_HasBeenVotedOnInThisSession .set_HasBeenVotedOnInThisSession notUpVotedTexture upVotedTexture voteButtonImage voteButton
We can vote for images, and the highest rated image will become the image displayed on the photo disc.
Add a photo
As expected, there will be a button to add photos:
addPhotoButtonImage addPhotoButtonEnableSprite addPhotoButtonDisabledSprite addPhotoButtonEnabledColor addPhotoButtonDisabledColor PoiImageSubmitter PoiImageSubmissionTime PoiImageId PoiImageUrl PoiImageIndexNumber
Scrolling improvements
keepPosition _Resize _UpdateSpacing _AddCellViewSizes _RecycleAllCells _RecycleCell listPosition
Added a lot to improve scrolling, from what I can see it looks better.
Ad targeting
.get_AdTargetingInfo .set_AdTargetingInfo AdTargetingInfoFieldNumber
It looks like we will get targeted ads. Most likely a nearby sponsored PokéStop or Gym.
AR mapping
Message error
TOO_BLUR TOO_LITTLE_MOTION
Too blurry and too slow.
Can you even search?
.get_IsPlayerEligibleForGeotargetedQuest .set_IsPlayerEligibleForGeotargetedQuest
A check to see if you can get the Pokéstop scan mission.
Upload in progress
UploadsInProgress CancelSubmissionUpload doUploadNowMessaging NotifyUploadNowStarted NotifyUploadLaterSelected UploadNowStartedHasSubscribers UploadLaterSelectedHasSubscribers add_OnUploadNowStarted remove_OnUploadNowStarted add_OnUploadLaterSelected remove_OnUploadLaterSelected OnUploadNowStarted OnUploadLaterSelected
Added a lot of uploads in progress, including a cancel option and some other notifications.
File service
originalFile CopyFileForSubmission MoveFileForSubmission GetSubmissionType WasSubmissionFound GetExtensionForType IsCorrectExtensionForType EditImage FILE_EXTENSION_JPG FILE_EXTENSION_JPEG ArScanV1 ArScanV2 ImageNomination ImageEdit
This seems to be a new file service for uploading, the file seems to be moved as well before uploading. I’m not sure why this is so, but there it is.
Gray event entry
ITEM_EVENT_TICKET_GRAY
I’m not really sure what this is for, maybe the subscription hinted at above? Perhaps Niantic plans to sell two event tickets at once.
Saved Player Data
SaveBattleParties SaveRecentAndFavoriteSearches
A couple of new values saved to your recent and favorite player data, battle groups, and searches.
Excluding badges
.get_BadgeTypesToExclude BadgeTypesToExcludeFieldNumber
…but why?
That’s it for now Trainers. Stay safe out there.
