Pokemon GO’s Nest Migrations Have Finally Been Confirmed

Pokemon GO’s nest migrations feature, which shifts the real-world spawn points of Pokemon in the app has finally confirmed to be a real thing by Niantic.

Wannabe Trainers may have noticed the app sending a push notification alerting them of new Pokemon in the area. The push notification reads: “Different Pokemon may be appearing in parks around you. It’s a great time to explore your local parks!”

While the nest migration has long been a thing, this is the first time that Niantic has opted to raise awareness of the feature with its player base. The nest migrations take place at 3:00 AM EST every other Thursday, the next is scheduled to take place on July 26.
