This could be somewhat plausible, since data miners recently found gen II PKMN in the game's code. ...Of course take this with a grain of salt.

I've had my new phone and Pokemon Go for 11 days, and am up to level 20 from this. Mainly hording Pidgeys and Weedles and then Lucky Egg mass evolutions. 

 

Will do a Lucky Egg on Wednesday morning as I'll hit my 7 day streak for catching and stops on way to work, so I'll get those and about 16 evolutions (3 yielding new dex registries) on my commute to work,

The new tracker has rolled out to the rest of the U.S. and large parts of EUR...

I thought it was supposed to show sightings as well as the new tracker...? These 2 PokéStops are like a 5 min walk from my house. I guess I will no longer be able to know what PKMN are in my neighborhood. :(

Well...at least PKMN not near PokéStops still show on the mini list.

Ohhey, thanks for the head's up! I just checked my tracker now and it looks like it's been rolled out here, too.

 

I'm... not really sure how it works, though? I guess the PokéStop image that is shown is the PokéStop that it's closest to or something? Some of these I don't even recognize.

So, uh, I've looked into the new tracker, and it seems... really weird? Apparently it only shows Pokémon near Pokéstops, so if there's a Pokémon nearby (even if it's closer to you than some of the Pokéstops shown on the tracker), it won't show up on your tracker.

 

So, it's good for learning which Pokémon are near Pokéstops in the area, but it no longer accurately shows which Pokémon are nearest you, only the ones that are right by Pokéstops.

Yeah, I've heard quite a few people complaining about how the new tracker only shows PKMN at PokéStops (some only showing 1 or 2 stops) which can be up to 1km (or more?) away. Niantic asked for feedback in that recent update post on their update blog, so hopefully the'll listen and fix this. All they have to do is just also add sightings like when the tracker was being beta tested in SF, cuz when your're not in range of PokéStops, it just shows sightings like before. It would also be a good idea if they just made sightings its own page in the tracker that you could swipe to.

 

If you're unhappy about this, let your voice be heard on their social media pages.

I'm just going to leave this here... If your're wondering, this is the same guy who sung the original theme for the anime.

I only have two Pokemon left before completing regional dex: Muk and Kabutops. Neither or them spawn anywhere near me, nor do their prevos, so I'm stuck buddying them. Gonna take quite some time.

That said, I'm 30k exp from hitting level 30, the soft cap. I have absolutely no reason to continue playing this game other than grinding distance on those buddies. As it stands if I'd gotten those two already I'd have quit this game ages ago. This tracker has little consequence on me, but I despise it. We beg them to return tracking and they continuously nerf it until it essentially no longer exists. I can only see Pidgeys at a Pokestop on the very edge of my map. This is awful. So glad I still have Pokemesh downloaded despite the annoying ads.

 

 

I sincerely hope they don't plan to release Gen II in December like rumors say. They need to take a LONG time to sift through all of the crap from Gen I they still need to fix.

@Carl321 Congratz on only needing 2 PKMN (besides legendaries & region exclusives) to complete the dex. :) 

 

This new tracker is THE STUPIDEST thing they've done to the game! After months beta testing it you'd think they would have improved it before fully launching it (they knew we hated it back then), but no. I've seen quite a few comments from parents telling their young kids they can no longer go on PKMN hunts together since they ruined the tracker. That's heartbreaking. :( I really hope Niantic is listening to all the feedback about the new tracker and will fix it.

 

It really sux being told there's common PKMN at PokéStops at least a 30 min walk away...and by the time I get there they will have deswapned anyway. There could be a rare PKMN not too far from me and I'd never know. >:( 

 

Spoiler

Yes, both of these PokéStops are at least a 30 min walk away from my location. >_> WHAT THAT FRIGGIN ASS?!!!!

Now to be fair, if this was the tracker the game launched with nobody would be complaining. They gave us a tracker that worked perfectly and took it away. :(
