Unreleased Content
What content, features or changes have you seen mentioned or hinted at in publications, industry conventions or events that have not been implemented in game?
For me I recall photographs from a presentation that showed an updated map system that had included elevation for the structures on the map and a sky that changed real time. A sunset would occur in game rather than that sudden switch between day and night.
Anyone else remember this? Anything else comes to mind that hasn’t been implemented or brought up again?

Some site from Argentina or someplace posted what looked like a leaked Niantic press release, and it had a lot of features related to legendary raids that have since been implemented, or will be soon (e.g. the exclusive raid passes). It also mentioned that (some?) players would be given a master ball that would guarantee a catch, but to use it carefully, because the player might not get another one for a long time.
Back in the beginning of the game, there was a weird egg-hatching thing where sometimes on the page of an incubated egg, it would say something like "this egg hatches with butter, all kinds of butter..." Apparently, it was an Alice in Wonderland reference or something, and for a while, people were trying to figure out if it was really anything meaningful, but as far as I know, nothing ever came of it.
