That's nice and all, but where the fuck is regular battles and trading with friends? Have they given a reason why they refuse to implement these or are they just deaf?

Nope

Nice to see updates, but haven't really played this game since so probably won't be going back any time soon :p

Pokemon you have in gyms are still marked as present in them. I noticed I was still able to get my daily coins for occupying one.

For me this is just too little too late for my interest in this game died last year during the winter. Appalling company to handle the franchise, really Niantic had a track record of poor support of bugs in their titles and PoGo was absolutely no different.

Can't blame you for losing interesting either. They're done a poor job supporting this game, while other Ninten app games have been well managed. Still no trading at this point.... >_>

Sort of, but not fully. If a PokéStop is near a Pokémon, the icon of the PokéStop closest to the Pokémon will be displayed behind the Pokémon in the nearby list. By tapping the Pokémon in the nearby list, it'll show the location of the PokéStop (but not the Pokémon). In areas with PokéStops, it gives a rough idea where the Pokémon might be, but that's it. Better than nothing though. I got lucky and found a Dragonite thanks to the feature today, though.

Aye that was something which should have been bought in early but instead we got a ton of junk updates which were just designed to try to nickle and dime the shrinking user base for every bit of cash they could.

It was still for a bit but now it shows me having 0 pokemons in the gym now.  Oh wells.

Yeah, it kind of makes me wonder what they've been doing this whole time. Surely maintaining the game and fixing bugs shouldn't be this time consuming. I feel like at least trading could have been released by now.

I checked later yesterday and saw my pokemon were returned to me as well. It was nice while it lasted...
