The post showcases a creature running around in what looks like a park, and only the legs and its tail are visible. However, that’s more than enough of a hint for the community to quickly figure out that it isnone other than the cute PokemonFidough.

Pokemon GO Fans Skeptical About Fidough’s Acquisition Method

Fidough enjoys a lot of popularity among fans, so this announcement is welcome news for many.Fidough made its debut inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, and it has quickly become one of the most beloved puppy Pokemon in the community. However, fans are quite skeptical about Fidough’s release inPokemon GO, as they believe that it could be extremely hard to get the Pokemon. Many think that the developers might make it obtainable only through something like a 10km egg, which can make getting the Pokemon quite tricky.

Pokemon GOfans have expressed their reservations about the egg-hatching system for quite a while now. For instance,Larvesta caused an outroar in thePokemon GOcommunitybecause of the abysmally low hatch rate. Each egg has a chance of hatching any one Pokemon from a pool, but it seems like the odds aren’t the same for each one of them. While there is no official information regarding this, research carried out by players in the past reveals that different species in the same group have different hatch rates. Even if Fidough ends up being a part of some egg, fans would hope that its hatch rate is good enough that they can get the coveted Pokemon in just a few tries.
