The new creatures that are going to be included will include new Pokemon as well as new evolutions of existing characters.

It is also revealed that Gen 2 of "Pokemon Go" will have a chance evolution. Generally, Poliwag generally turns into a Poliwhirl. However, if the rumors of chance evolution are true, Poliwag might turn into Politoed. Similarly, Slowpoke can evolve into Slowking instead of Slowbro like the current generation. In the Gen 2 "Pokemon Go," Eevee has the option to turn into any of the five next-level Pokemon, namely Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, Umbreon and Espeon. The latter two are new additions to the game, reported MobiPicker.

Oddish can evolve into Gloom in the Gen 2 "Pokemon Go." Eventually, it can involve into new Pokemon Bellossom for 100 Candies instead of the grass/poison-type Vileplum that it usually turns to.
