A new Pokemon Go update has just been released. What’s new this time around?

Niantic announced Version 1.33.1 for iOS, and 0.63.1 for Android, on Tuesday May 9th. There are two changes in this update, with the one that will affect most players concerning the way the game displays medals.

After this new update, tapping on a medal will show how close you are to the next medal tier.

In addition, the other change in this update is that Brazilian Portuguese support has been added to the game.

As is always the case with Pokemon Go updates, hardcore players love to dig through the code in order to find hints about upcoming features; stay tuned for more information on that front.

Here are the full patch notes for this update courtesy of Niantic:
