If you’re a social media user, you may be seeing a lot more of Pokémon GO pop up in your feed. That’s because Niantic is now paying to sponsor its immensely-popular mobile game across social media platforms, especially Twitter. The developer is heavily promoting Pokémon GO with a series of tweets that include promoted posts and sponsored content. It is also teasing the future of Pokémon GO by looking back at all the main Pokémon GO announcements, trailers, events and accomplishments since 2016:
Did you know? Our Trainers caught 4.4 billion Pokémon while walking over 500 million kilometers during this year’s Community Day events! Show us your Jogger medal! 👟 🏅 #PokemonGO pic.twitter.com/SqtEcI0igl

So many Trainers became Special Research experts, helping Professor Willow solve mysteries surrounding Mythical Pokémon. The New Species Pokémon, Mew, was the first big Special Research discovery! Which Special Research was your favorite? #PokemonGO pic.twitter.com/6ElybOBBVX

Taking a look back, our Trainers were definitely in for a treat on October 26, 2016—the date of our first in-game event! Do you remember your first spooky Pokémon in #PokemonGO? https://t.co/lU9wJTAICA

Thank you for an incredible year of this game. I can say that most of the fun and excitement for me this year has been playing Pokémon Go with friends & family. From trading, all the community days, all the shinies that have been released and PVP around the corner. Amazing year!

Trainers experienced a new way to #BeLegendary with more Legendary Pokémon appearing in raids! From Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza at the start of the year to Cresselia appearing now, Trainers have challenged powerful Pokémon originally discovered in many regions! #PokemonGO pic.twitter.com/SVeDF5PnSq
