"Pokemon Go" will be releasing a special segment for April Fool's Day dubbed "2-Oh-22" so you won't be left behind on this occasion. However, the particular focus of Niantic this time will be Ditto, a symbol of prank for many people.
'Pokemon Go' April Fool's Event Brings Ditto
Here's a sneak peek of the upcoming April Fools' 2-Oh-22 event in "Pokemon GO."
According to a report by Dot Esports, this year's April Fools' 2-Oh-22 update will be introducing the ultimate prankster in the Pokemon world: Ditto.
This copycat Pokemon might just be appealing not because of its visuals but because of its ability to be everything: from a Caterpie to a legendary Pokemon such as Rayquaza and Mewtwo.
Sometimes, this Pokemon can catch you off-guard like what Niantic will do for the upcoming April Fool's event. You will notice that during this segment, Ditto is the only Pokemon who will frequently spawn in some areas.
Special Research and Rewards
Since the April Fool's update will revolve around Ditto and the Normal-type Pokemon, expect that all special research and rewards will be related to them. Take a look at this list.

New 'Pokemon GO' Project?
In other news, Pokemon GO Hub reported that Niantic announced its plans to create location edits for map quality improvement.
"We wanted to let you know that we are embarking on a project to improve the location accuracy of up to 15K Wayspots in total, between several major cities. These Wayspots will typically be smaller objects and discrete places such as statues, sculptures, signage, murals, and entrance locations to help improve existing and future gameplay experiences that rely on good location accuracy. This will help improve future AR game experiences at these locations across Niantic games."
With that, Niantic listed that the target cities include Tokyo and New York City (early April 2022), Seattle, San Francisco, London (late April 2022), Los Angeles, and other US cities (early May 2022).
Niantic said that some users might experience some issues during this time. You can seek help from the company through its support channels if you have any concerns. You can also check the Wayfarer forum to keep in touch with its project.
