Pokemon Go players are convinced Niantic has forgotten to add in a key feature previously promised in the current Lustrous Odyssey event.
The Lustrous Odyssey eventhas been highly anticipated among manyPokemon Goplayers, particularly those looking to grabDusk Form Lycanrocand fill their Pokedex. On top of this, the event boasted plenty of new wild spawns, Shiny Pokemon, rewards, and so much more.
However, not all the elements Niantic originally promised for the event have arrived in the game, leaving players pretty confused and wondering whether they just completely forgot about one key feature.
Pokemon Go fans slam Niantic for forgetting key Pokemon in event
Sharing their frustrationson Reddit, one user shared a meme highlighting how Niantic forgot to add the previously promised Shiny Espeon and Umbreon to the Lustrous Odyssey event.
When the event was initially revealed, players were thrilled to see Shiny Espeon and Umbreon available to catch in the wild. However, shortly after, many began reporting on their absence, with some assuming Niantic had just forgotten about them altogether.
It seems there was a bug surrounding the pair and that they had to be taken out of the event. While many understood the problem and thanked Niantic for the gift, it was clear some thought the compensation was far from reasonable.
“But not the good potions, the crappy purple ones” commented one fan, clearly upset with the quality of the reward, while another said, “dammit now I have more stuff to delete.”
While it’s certainly frustrating to see the highly anticipated Pokemon not appearing in the wild, players can still get hold ofShiny Umbreonand Shiny Espeon via other methods in the game.
