All Pokémon Go players are used to seeing cafes, restaurants and other places to eat pop up as PokéStops but in a recent leaked staff memo, it would appear that the majority US-based Starbucks coffee shops are going to become either gyms or PokéStops in an update due to appear at the end of this week. Not only that but a new Pokémon Go frappuccino is going to be hitting the high street – a regular vanilla frappuccino which has been “evolved with raspberry syrup and blackberries”.

Recently it has also been speculated that Gen 2 Pokémon will be going the game anytime soon so could this Starbucks update also include the next 100 Pokémon to catch?
