Pokémon Go looks set to add a new mechanic from the main series Pokémon games: the concept of Pokémon Fusion.
References to Fusion have been found in a new datamine of the app (thanks, PokéMiners), and give a strong suggestion for how the mechanic may be implemented – as well as which Pokémon it will be activated for.
Fusion – which sees a separate Pokémon temporarily subsumed by another – would be a fun addition, and is fitting to add now ahead of Necrozma’s arrival at Go Fest 2024 – teased by developer Niantic during this week’s real-life solar eclipse, and now fully confirmed as being available during this summer’s Go Fest events via raid battles.
