Gemini 2 Pro Removed?!

i understand you want people to test the new Gemini pro thinking model But why remove the normal pro model ?
it’s literally the best model i have ever used.
edit: I take back my words the new amount of tokens the model can output at a time is increased to 65536!!
that is just super awesome!

it is not actually 65536. it is sum of thinking output tokens + output tokens.

Thinking Gemini 2.5 Pro is great, but it’s pretty weak in writing, editing and translations (most thinking models are, as far as I tested). And Gemini 2.0 Pro was great in exactly these areas (better than GPT 4.5). It’s a shame to not have it anymore, because it was the best translation and editing AI tool out there.

Yeah, it feels a little insane that they’re just going to remove the 2.1 pro model without any proper replacement like Flash is clearly not intended for use with writing and proper creative thinking or brainstorming, and 2.5 might have been a decent replacement except it’s a thinking model, and it takes so long just to process any input, and it appears (from my limited use so far) to have severely lower performance on creative writing tasks
