Recently a few Gen 2 Pokémon were added to Pokémon Go, but not all (for example, number 152, Chikorita, is not believed to have been added yet).
Upon hatching or catching one of the Gen 2 Pokemon, does the Pokedex become full of squares representing the intermediate numbers which can't (yet) be found? Otherwise how does the Pokedex look?
You can click on that image of goldeen. The box will close and the map will notify you where the goldeen is.
Based on what users said in this thread, it doesn't look like the name is freed up once you change it.
I want the name from my throwaway account on my main, but after changing my throwaway's name the old one is still unavailable :(
I'm pretty sure that the old name became unusable in Ingress, although I don't have a source for that.
I actually tried this on my two accounts and once you've used a name it never shows up as available again even after you changed the name on that account to something else.
Other users suggested that there be some sort of cooldown period before a previously-used username is available again, but there has been no confirmation of this.

It still functions the same as it did before when only Gen 1 was in the game. Say you only have a Bulbasaur, then the next Pokemon you catch was a Dragonite. Your Pokedex would show a bunch of squares with the number of each Pokemon (1-149) with only Bulbasaur and Dragonite being populated. If you hatched a Magby (#240) you would then have empty squares with numbers up to Magby showing. Example with Igglybuff
