Pokémon GO Easter Event Announced

The rumors are true, Pokémon GO will be hosting an Easter Eggstravaganza Event!

From 1:00pm PST today until 1:00pm PST on April 20th, trainers will be able to take advantage of the following benefits:

  • Double EXP
  • Greater variety of Pokémon hatching from 2km eggs
  • Increased candy quanity for egg hatchs
  • 50% off on Lucky Eggs in the in-game shop

No word yet if the new Pokémon added to the 2km egg group will be brought down from the 5km and 10km groups, or if they’re simply Pokémon that usually cannot be hatched from eggs at all. For the official press release you can visit Niantic’s official blog!

    • I’m just away to bed after crashing 13RW, but isn’t it like eight-ten in America? If you’re all asleep you’re as weak as your cuisine

  3. Finally I’m getting the hang of BOTW. It only took me falling off the great plateau tower around 15 times on accident to figure out how to play the game

  4. Gen 6 introduced a ”4th evolution”
    Gen 7 introduced a ”5th move”
    Gen 8 will introduce a 3rd type. Save this

    • Fighting/Dark/Dragon Scrafty please

      Also, that’d either make it 6 times weak to Fairy or 8 times weak to Fairy 😮

      • I think if they added tritypes they’d rejigg it so like types only get up to a 6x modifier because an 8x modifier is insane

      • I want Hoppip line Grass/Flying/Fairy

        I still think it looks Fairy no other reason than looks also if Whimsicott can get Fairy so can Jumpluff

    • Honestly, my bet for one of the next big mechanics is Pokémon fusions. It’s the only thing missing in the Pokémon forms department. I know we already have the Kyurem forms, but they are more like absorptions and Kyurem is still the base pokémon. I’m talking about an equal mix of two Pokémon (think DNA Digivolution from Digimon).

  5. Anyone think that next Gen will have an ability upgrade like Gen 6 was an evo upgrade and Gen 7 had a move upgrade?

  6. Ok, I can’t decide myself. Which one do you guys think is a better addition for my in-game team of my 2nd Moon playthrough: Vikavolt or Palossand?
    btw, the rest of the team is: Primarina, Incineroar, Lycanroc-Midnight, Tsareena, Gengar.

  7. In your opinion, what’s the ugliest Pokemon? Not the Pokemon who’s design you dislike most (may overlap tho), it can even be one of your favourites.

  8. I am so confused right now. I decided to replay Omega Ruby yesterday, and she had a Plusle and a Minun. The Plusle gave me an Oran berry, I killed it, and then her Minun just keeps switching it’s Oran berry with he one i’m holding.

  9. So, I just hatched a shiny Grubbin while trying to breed a near-flawless one with HP Ice. Since I have a few pokémon that I rather have as a shiny more than Grubbin, I thought about just doing a shiny swap. The one I wanted the most was female Salandit. However, after swaping, the egg turned out to be male due to Salandit’s annoying gender ration. I saved an image guide about shiny swiping which explains how to fix that for gender-fixed. I tried that for Salandit, it didn’t work. Is it because even though Salandit doesn’t have a 50-50 ratio, it’s still a non-gender-fixed mon?

  10. To inspiring fanmon creators. Names aren’t that scary.. just remember, Muk, Ducklett, and Swanna are names

  11. Well, decided to shiny swap the Grubbin I hatched for a Litten. Now I’ll have a shiny Incineroar which definitely makes it much more tolerable compared to the regular coloration. (without Intimidate though, why are they taking so long to release those?)

  12. Crunching my way through the Battle Tree with my team for the international challenge. Good way to practice 🙂
