I was thinking it was odd when a 60CP eevee was orange ring and I couldn't catch it. |
I think it's a little disingenuous of Niantic to say this is a bug.
They had to deliberately change the code to make them more difficult to catch. It was moved so far that it was fairly obvious to anyone who played that they changed it.
They just wanted people to have to buy more pokeballs. The reason they are backtracking is that it pissed everyone off so much.
I'm sure there will be more changes aimed at getting people to open their wallets wider and more often. But I bet they are harder to notice from now on.
