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!

  1. I know I’m posting a lot but funny story

    So I was on holiday in Florida, right? A fag to us can mean the same thing as it does in America, but we mainly use it as a term for a cigarette. So there was this very obviously gay guy in front of me when I was waiting in a queue, and another guy was smoking and being rather obnoxious about it. I almost yelled at him to ‘get that fag out of my face’ before I caught myself

  2. Another story. So my school has mandatory work experience. Little background on me: awkward little shit until I came out of my shell… Well, just a year before I came out of something else. Because of this, my childhood was mostly TV and games, particularly American or American dubbed ones.

    Long story short, I have what some people (keep in mind it’s only non Americans who’ve said it, most of you guys would say I don’t sound American) say is an American accent, but nobody’s specified a state.

    Flash forward to my catering experience. Not only did they believe my name was Jason and I was worried i stole some Jason kid’s work experience (it got sorted out, Jason doesn’t exist), turns out they were guessing what state I was from before asking me about where I came from. I simply answered the name of my city, and they then asked when I’d moved here. I said I was born here. They asked when my parents moved here. I said that they were also born here. Their faces were redder than Earthen in a Tinkerbell movie.

  3. Decided to scour 4chan for leaks
    Found a thread mentioning how fire starters have flames coming from different areas of the body
    found a part of thread referencing head shoulders knees and toes
    WHY

  4. I really want a spin off where

    >We have no gimmicks, just Gen 1-5 style battling

    >Your Pokemon knows all their moves, but you can assign four to use quickly and the rest are on scroll wheels

    >The battles aren’t turn based, so it’s more dynamic battles. The accuracy of a move is translated to how hard relatively it is to dodge

  5. Wait what if

    Open world Pokemon with no story, just trainers, Gyms, E4, champ, tournaments, contests, mini games, etc you make it

    BUT there’s a huge emphasis on world and there’s servers (there’d hopefully be a single player option) where you can chill with your friends and explore a huge alive world of Pokemon

      • i ask because i feel like i’m the only one on the planet who uses Seismitoad to a degree
        And his build is Sassy Specially Defensive with an AV,
        anything that’s not stab grass guarantees at least a few good hits

      • I haven’t formulated a primary set, since I’m experimenting with it, but often its either a bulky water absorb or the swift swim mixed sweeper. I like the second option a lot more.

  8. So somehow I ended up watching a bunch of the old Pokemon commercials on YouTube. I watched basically from DP up to SM. First of all I can firmly say that the whole Shohei story still gives the warm and fuzzies. It make me want to pick up my Sun copy again lol Second from watching all these commercials it’s got me thinking. We haven’t had a Spring/Summerish release in a very long time. Not since BW. I get that they basically bumped the rest of the world to Japan’s release cycle and they typically get the games in the fall, but I can’t say I’m a fan. It’s not a terrible time to release games, but I long for a time when I was able to play through a brand new Pokemon story when it’s nice out. I miss the days when it was around 50-60ish out (at least where I live) and I was able to play through my journey outside on my porch or at the park or even (not the best idea, but I was a kid) at the beach. Playing Pokemon when it’s nice out makes me feel god, but I can’t do that when the games are released right near the beginning of the Winter and I’m stuck inside……..Which is a bummer as even if Stars is real it was apparently delayed to fall. which sucks as it would mean that I almost got my Summer Pokemon game lol
