The recent log-in issues in regard to the Pokémon Trainer Club method have officially been resolved in Pokémon GO. Developer Niantic has confirmed that a new fix has been dispatched, so players should now be able to sign in to the game normally without any issues. Pokémon GO users will soon be able to catch a special Pikachu wearing a party hat, as part of the upcoming Pokémon Day 2017 celebrations.
