Pokémon GO Valentine’s Event Announced

by

Pokémon GO is showing just how much they love their fans this Valentine’s Day by releasing Generation II increasing the amount of candy gained and making some rare Pokémon more common!

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we couldn’t think of a sweeter time to double the amount of Candy you’ll earn every time you catch, hatch, and transfer Pokémon. Your Buddy Pokémon is also getting into the Valentine’s Day spirit and will find Candy twice as fast!

Throughout the celebration, you’ll notice that Chansey, Clefable, and many other adorable pink Pokémon will be encountered more frequently in the wild. Cleffa, Igglybuff, and Smoochum will also be more likely to hatch from Eggs. And to help you paint your town pink this Valentine’s Day, Lure Modules will last for six hours for the entire duration of the event.

This limited-time celebration will only be available from 11:00 A.M. PST on February 8, 2017, to 11:00 A.M. PST on February 15, 2017, so grab your valentine, get out, and explore the world around you!

Ready to fire up GO and grab a pink Pokémon, stock up on candies or try your luck with some lure modules?! Fun fact: Clefairy is actually my buddy Pokémon!

  1. Another valentine question (sorry)
    What pokemon was an acquired love? (specifically hated it at first, but something made you change your opinion to love it)
    AND Vice Versa: What pokemon did you love but now hate so much?

      • Out of curiosity what is this about?

        A show with a name like that is asking for trouble, no matter what it’s about loo

        • Basically its about the trials of being black in an almost entirely white school. Thats pretty much it, it actually looks really good, but of course some white people like to play the victim card a lot and are being stupid about it, but like what else is new. (saying as an outwardly white person)

          • it actually looks really funny but also deals with some important issues judging by the trailer, I’ll probs watch it. But yeah you right some people need new hobbies.

          • But that’s the thing for me, I hate dealing with socio-political issues. It’s just more stress lol

          • ok, but…. how do you live then? forgive me for asking, I’m honestly just curious because I cant go a day without encounter some form of socio-political issue and like its getting more and more common with everything thats going on, but I guess maybe it could be because a lot of these issues effect me so like I cant turn a blind eye.

          • sorry, guess that will never be me. If I see something wrong happening I cant ignore it. I was playing Dragon Age today and one character talked about how he ignored some kids stringing up a puppy from a tree and how it broke him that he was too weak to do something when he could have. I can’t ignore things that I can change. Obviously thats not everyone, but thats me.

          • That’s different, though. If someone or some animal was being tortured right in front of me of course I’d try to save it, but as morbid as it sounds, you know how he would have been happier?

            If he didn’t see them doing it at all. That’s where my blissful ignorance comes in.

          • I mean its not different, all our actions and non-actions lead to some result or another and who’s to say that not speaking up against something wrong won’t result in people or creatures dying, aka the holocaust.

          • I really don’t want that responsibility on me, AND THAT’S WHY I IGNORE IT.

            I’m sorta done here, no offense to you but I’m getting a little annoyed. I don’t want my desire to escape these issues being compared to the causes of the holocaust.

          • I mean thats fine I said it was all cool a while ago, I have no issue with you and wasn’t directing that at you. But still, I gotta be real.

          • I get that, there’s many different ways to deal with issues like this. I’m sorry if I overreacted.

          • ahhahahahaha, I literally knew this dog was just dragging its balls the whole time, but the commentary was A+

          • Literally a just ignore it. Shut it all out. You’re right, living in the present means they’re shoved down my throat, but I just try to move on as soon as I can.

            You may call it cowardice and that’s entirely fair, but personally I’m happier without the problems of our entire society on my shoulders.

          • its not cowardice per say, there are just some that simply cannot handle the stress of the worlds issues, my mother is one of those people, she always asks me why I continue to follow it all, where she just blocks it out. I always tell her that if we want change we cant all block it out, but she could never handle it, I understand that.

          • That’s part of the thing too. I felt like, and still do feel, that I don’t have anything in my power to make a substantial difference even if I wanted to. And to save myself the worry, I’m just done trying to deal with this.

        • Basically its about the trials of being black in an almost entirely white school.

  8. If any of you Aether imbeciles can drop the act for a sec, is anybody else getting that snow storm that’s dropping tomorrow?

  10. @starstorm295:disqus So since we tried the whole thing with unleashing the UBs and all, but it backfired, what’s plan B?

  22. I read this and thought it was pretty funny. So what if Monolith makes 9 Xenoblade games that somehow in a weird turn of events leads up to X (since the Roman numeral)? xD

  24. Curse my insomniac ways, I need to sleep but I can’t stop watching Pixar short films or looking up weird stuff…

    Someone serenade me to sleep or bash the back of my skull
