The update also adds a search feature to the Pokémon collection screen, allowing players to search for Pokémon by {{bp|nickname}}.
The update also adds a search feature to the Pokémon collection screen, allowing players to search for Pokémon by name (the game shows Pokémon whose {{bp|nickname}} or species name contains the search term). The search bar also supports key terms: searching a {{bp|type}} shows all Pokémon of that type, searching "Evolve" shows all Pokémon for which the player has sufficient items and {{bp|Candy}} to evolve, searching "CP 200-500" or "HP 200-500" shows all Pokémon whose CP or HP is within that range respectively (inclusive), and searching "50-100" shows all Pokémon whose Pokédex number is between 50 and 100. Key terms are not searched as literal strings. It is possible to search for a union of key phrases by separating them with commas (e.g. "fire, evolve" displays all Pokémon that are {{type|Fire}} or can evolve).


Additionally, the game has been made able to support the new motivation-based {{OBP|Gym|GO}} system and the new Raid Battle mechanic, added the Raid Battle-exclusive items, added the Gym Badge feature, and added support for Gyms sending push notifications. The type effectiveness and {{bp|Same-type attack bonus|STAB}} multipliers have been modified for when battles become available again; super effective moves will now deal 1.4× damage (rather than 1.25×), not very effective moves will deal 0.714× (rather than 0.8×), type immunities will cause moves to deal 0.51× (rather than 0.8×), and STAB moves will now deal 1.2× (rather than 1.25×).
