Pokémon GO Announces ‘Adventure Week’

A new event, dubbed Adventure Week, has been announced for the hit iOS/Android game Pokémon GO. It will run from May 18-25, so don’t miss it!

To help you stock up for your upcoming adventure, more items will be awarded from every PokéStop you visit, and Poké Balls will be 50% off in the in-game shop. Your Buddy Pokémon is also in the adventuring spirit and will find Candies four times as fast for the duration of the celebration. Whether you’re exploring your neighborhood or an exotic new location, make sure to watch for Rock-type Pokémon such as Omanyte, Kabuto, and their Evolutions. Keep an eye out—maybe you’ll even spot Aerodactyl!

In addition to the perks above, the event also rewards a cosmetic item: the Explorer’s Hat!

We’ll bring you more as it comes. Let us know if you’re excited to ROCK OUT with this new event!

  3. The first of my regional forms (I’ll post more later), Shellos and Gastrodon. Because of not living near the sea for many years Shellos have transformed into Ground types.

    Slavian Shellos
    Ground
    They love being underground with miners. Because of It’s slimy body, if a miner is trapped underground it can squeeze through spaces between rocks and bring help.

    Slavian Gastrodon
    Ground/Rock
    After evolving, they can help miners even more. They can carry tools on their backs and eat useless rocks that miners dig out. Gastrodon are very respected pokemon due to the many lives of miners they saved.

    Based on miners in the Silesia Province in Poland. They have their own culture, suits for special occasions and are respected in the community.

    • Just scream “JE NE COMPREND PAS!” throughout the whole final and maybe they’ll let you off easy…. no guarantee the won’t take you to the rubber rooms though, you have to pick your battles

    • At least you were given the opportunity. In high school, we had to always do the finals (even if it just meant getting the 70% to make sure we passed).
      In college though it changed (for the better); I’ve had like 4 classes (out of 9?) where I’ve had a high enough grade that I don’t have to take the final. It’s great

  5. Now the Slavian Hippopotas and Hippowdon. They just lived near a volcano and Hippowdon killed a lot.

    Slavian Hippopotas
    Fire/Ground
    Don’t be fooled by their cuteness, they are very deadly and could burn you to ashes in a minute. They swim in lava and attack at night, that’s why they almost cannot see in the day.

    Slavian Hippowdon
    Fire/Dark
    They have killed many people in the past and that’s why now they have some sort of a bloodlust. They kill at night and rest in lava during the day.

  6. Time to hate myself…
    I feel like every single series nowadays is revolutionizing
    Mario Odessey… just look at it
    Breath of the wild
    Sanic Forces you do deal with OC bullshit

    I wonder if Pokémon will have a dramatic shift…

  7. The fact that there was no mention of Professor Ivy in Sun and Moon really irks me tbh, like I know she’s only in the anime but come on it was the perfect opportunity

  8. So in today’s news: suprise ARMS(and minor Splatoon) Direct tomorrow, Sega just opened Pandora’s box, and My Octogenarian dad threw up on himself.

      • Yes….now we’re permanently stuck with a Paper Mario universe that fully acknowledges they are made of paper
        Now the only possible chance of getting a traditional Paper Mario game is for them to make a brand new series that is a carbon copy of the old series

        Reply
          • Only Mario, but no other NPCs ever take the paperyness into question

            Now everyone in the paper Mario world knows they’re made of paper and go to lengths that they dislike being crumpled or folded

          • but seriously didn’t some dude decide to be all “prime isn’t canon” or something? or is that just a widespread rumor?

    • Super Metroid is such a good game, it’s a shame the franchise is not getting any attention from Nintendo:/

      Reply
        • At least it apparently hinted at Prime 4… And it wouldn’t have been universally hated IF WE HAD A GOOD ACTUAL METROID GAME WITHIN A MARGIN OF ERROR.

  9. The last regionals today: Croagunk and Toxicroak. They have hallucinogenic venom, because of their diet.

    Slavian Croagunk
    Poison/Psychic
    In the Slavy region Croagunk have eaten a Bug/Psychic pokemon species to extinction. For the same reason Slavian Croagunk have psychic powers themselves as well as hallucinogenic venom.

    Slavian Toxicroak
    Poison/Psychic
    The venom on their spikes can cause hallucinations that can make any pokemon mad, But they only use it to defend themselves from predators. They are well known for their intelligence.
