Pokemon Go has announced that the in-game Style Shop and avatar customization menu is getting an overhaul alongside a limited-time cosmetic sale.

One of the many aspects of Pokemon Go that players can dive into to craft their own unique experience is avatar customization Style Shop. Each player can create their own customizable trainer and dress them up to reflect their own sense of style.

As many in-game events offer players the chance to snag limited-time cosmetics, there are plenty of fun option players can take advantage of to look their best in Pokemon Go.

Now, Pokemon Go has announced that the in-game Style Shop is getting a big update, alongside an overhaul to the avatar customization menu and a limited-time cosmetic sale.

The news came from the official Pokemon Go blog, which detailed the changes coming to the Style Shop.

Pokemon Go is also offering a limited-time sale on Kanto Starter Hoodies and more.

New items in the Style Shop have a mark indicating them to help players notice them more easily. Trainers will also be able to save multiple outfits and conveniently switch between whenever they want.

In terms of the Style Shop’s UI, the post said, “The horizontal navigation bar will be replaced with a new vertical bar to the left of your avatar. Trainers will be able to navigate between item categories and see a full screen view of the items available in each category.”

Finally, this update comes with a limited time in-game sale, which will last from Thursday, June 1, 2023 at 10 AM PDT to Monday, June 5, 2023, at 10 PM PDT.
