"Pokemon GO" players are getting harder and harder to impress. Statistics show that the game is losing more players than ever before with four out of five gamers quitting. Niantic has recently launched new Pokémon Gen 2 monsters with bonus shiny Pokemons but only a small spike has been noted. Fans now want more out of the game and those that are still in the game are now asking what would make them stay.

"Pokemon GO" has charmed 28.5 million users the time it launched in the United States on July, 2016, Nintendo Life reported. This was considered a huge achievement for a smartphone game app but by the end of the month, the number has reduced to 20 million. By September, only 10 million players were left.

The latest "Pokemon GO" graph also showed the number of daily active users has plummeted to 5 million in the United States before the holidays. By the time Niantic rolled out its holiday updates, the figures slightly increased but remained low compared to its first month. Recent updates that include the release of Gen 2 updates, regional Pokemons and shiny Pokemons only increased the number of users slightly.

Niantic's hesitation to release more creatures and updates may have led to the continuing decline of daily players in the recent months, BGR said. Reports said that once Niantic has improved trading and gym battles in "Pokemon GO," it may still have a chance to boost its user base, attract new players and entice old users.

"Pokemon GO" is a location-based reality game launched in July 6, 2016. Based on the animated series, this game was previously confined in Nintendo handheld consoles until it was introduced as a mobile game. According to a comScore research, around 60 percent of "Pokémon GO" players are 18 to 34 year-old millennials but during the time it was launched, it was played by people from all walks of life, in many countries and by people of all ages.
