Niantic has also promised that they will be increasing the spawn rate which will mean more Pokemon appearing in more places. However, this also increases the chances of the same Pokemon appearing in densely populated areas but they are likely to be evenly spread out. Pokémon will also be appearing in different locations which means that there will be more Pokémon for Trainers in rural or rapidly expanding areas.
