Pokemon GO Might Be Getting A “Buddy System” Soon [UPDATE]


According to recent data mining from Go Hub, a new "Buddy System" feature has  been found in the code of Pokemon Go that would make it much easier to evolve some of your rarer catches. According to their breakdown, users would be able to designate one Pokemon as a buddy for a set amount of time, during which time they could walk with them to earn the corresponding candies required to evolve them or power them up. This would give players the chance to earn candies without having to catch tons of duplicates to make it happen. While this isn't official, according to the post on Go Hub, the code looks complete. Maybe this feature will appear in the next update ? What do you think ?

UPDATE 9/4/16 - In a recent blog post, Niantic detailed an upcoming update that will allow users to choose a Buddy Pokemon that will make leveling up easier. Give the blog post a read to learn more.
