Check your phones - Pokémon Go's new update is live, although the game's Gen 3 spawns have yet to be switched on.
You can see if you have the new update from the new splash screen - it's all Christmas-themed.
While yesterday's announcement suggested the game's new weather mechanics were all set to go live immediately, a Niantic interview with The Verge suggests these will be activated later in the month, after the 50 new Gen 3 creatures arrive this week. (We expect them any minute now, in fact.)
There's a new look for gym battles, where you no longer need to hold down on the screen to activate your power move. Behind the scenes, meanwhile, code has been added for a new Star Piece item - a Lucky Egg-style consumable to boost your Stardust rate.
