Pokémon Go knows you hate Pidgeys – so now you won't see as many

Bad news for trash birds but good news if you're still playing Poki(C)mon Go: the worst characters in the game are slightly less common

You hate catching Pidgeys. I hate catching Pidgeys. Now, finally, Niantic Lab, the makers of Poki(C)mon Go, have realised that no-one likes catching Pidgeys, and tweaked the game so that you won't be catching as many bloody Pidgeys.

The change is one of a few introduced by the developers in the latest update to Poki(C)mon Go, and the biggest sign yet that Niantic is actually listening to Poki(C)mon Go's large, yet shrinking, playerbase when deciding how to guide the game going forward.
