PvP CHANGES
This is a big change in the update. The PvP system is to be completely changed. Moreover, a new PvP-specific library is being added. Improvements in the PvP timings are also being made.
Team Go Rocket encounters will also be changed. This is because these encounters are similar to the PvP system. These encounters might also be in a different format, as Niantic might be trying to separate the different types of encounters.
