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

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!

  2. This question comes up a lot, but what’s your favourite Pokemon – and has it always been your favourite?

    • Right now I’d say both Raichu forms but Lurantis and Salazzle are close seconds. And yeah, Kantonian Raichu has been my favourite since my first game (Diamond, where I got my Raichu up to Lv. 100)

    • Chandelure and no. My first favourite was Shinx, then it was Gliscor, then I couldn’t​ decide between Gallade and Sableye, then Chandelure came into my life

    • Well right now it’s Lopunny and no. I used to be (more) trash and liked Lucario for a long time. Then Mega Lopunny came around and I adored it. I bred two shiny Lopunnies, one for competitive and one for in game in ORAS. I had already made this dumb comic with a Buneary in it so I had a connection to it but I just loved the mega. Eventually I stopped liking Lucario and Lopunny became my favorite.

        She was handing out papers today and I was in the first of the row. I was telling her to wait cause I had to erase something… so I used the least clean eraser I had… and made sure it took VERY long…. she mentioned her arm started to hurt :3
