This milestone comes at a bit of an up and down period for the game however. Fans have been recently frustrated with recent changes, such as the increase in cost to purchase a remote raid pass, and nerf to the damage remote raiding players deal as well. Additionally, there has been an industry-wide decrease in spending on mobile games this year, with the 2022 first-quarter earnings for Pokémon GO coming in at 45% less than the earnings for the same period in 2021. The game has also been forced to adapt to changing COVID-19 restrictions in the past two years to mixed results and reception from players.
