Pokémon GO Confirms All-Hands Rocket Retreat Debuting Salandit
Generation Seven releases in Pokémon GO will continue with the debut of Salandit and Salazzle alongside the All-Hands Rocket Retreat in the coming week. The influx of Pokémon species from the Sun and Moon games has given many fans much-needed new encounters while exploring. While some additions have been less exciting, like Pikipek, others like Rockruff and the Alolan starters have helped boost the numerous events Pokémon GO has offered in past months.
