Buddy Pokemon
Recommended Videos
Though not something massively revolutionary, the Buddy System was a pretty great way to make your Pokemon GO experience feel a little more personal to you. In a September update, the Buddy System was introduced and allowed you to choose one of your captured Pokemon to feature next to your character’s avatar.
Not only did this make you feel a little more attached to your favorite creature, but at a particular distance that varied depending on species, your buddy Pokemon would earn one candy. Considering some Pokemon could be a real pain to get candy for, this was a great way to make the grind that little bit less of a nuisance.
