There’s Another Tweak In Pokemon Go’s Item Distribution System


Pokemon GO just made another change in their item distribution system again, this time with healing items.

Last month there were reports that gamers had noticed times when Pokestops would give out only two items during each visit, riling up players who have been relying on using Pokestops as their main way of obtaining potions, Pokeballs, and other items.

Niantic saw to it that the issue was fixed without further announcement, making some wonder the two-item release was simply a glitch, or whether the gaming app developer was trying to test out a new procedure for Pokemon Go.

Now, it seems like another change is washing over the game with a little tweak on the items that are usually made available in Pokestops. Comicbook is reporting that while gamers can still obtain Pokeballs and berries in their usual quantities at Pokestops, the location is no longer dropping potions or revives.

Sure Pokestops haven't entirely stopped rolling out revives and potions to gamers, but it seems like the chance that it drops has become extremely rare at Pokestops. Of course, gamers can still nab potions and revives in regular numbers from gyms, but there's speculation that the developers are instilling a deliberate change to their item distribution system.

The question though – is this change any good? Is it permanent? Or is it just another test by Niantic?

Let's wait and see.
