Today, Pokémon GO is getting a new feature, Roots, which gives the community another way to explore their surroundings together. Routes allow trainers to share their best running and hiking routes with others directly in Pokemon GO. It makes the game’s first feature based on user-generated content.
Creating routes is easy. Players only need to start from a Pokéstop and then share the route. Trainers who follow this route get bonuses, rewards, and encounter Pokémon that would otherwise be more likely to be found in the route creator’s home location. There is no minimum level required to create a route, and with the ability to start and end a route at the same PokéStop, trainers from all regions can take full advantage of this new feature.
Whether it’s the best way to navigate all terrain in the area or a scenic riverside trail, the possibilities for the community are endless. There is also an option to complete routes in background mode for all trainers who want to enjoy pure exploration of their surroundings. Players do not have to have the game open continuously while completing a route.
There is more information about the route on the Pokemon GO blog And website A trailer for the Accessible Route feature It’s on YouTube.
