New Avatar item
The Magikarp Hat is located under hats in the style menu and is free! It’s undetermined if this hat is limited edition, so get in those screenshots just in case (how could you not, they are hilarious lol)!

You’ll also see increased spawns for Generation II water-type Pokémon and rarely Lapras when near water.
