Pokémon GO’s Solstice Event Begins!

Pokémon GO’s Solstice Event has officially begun!

From now until June 20th, Fire and Ice-Types will spawn more frequently to celebrate the beginning of Summer in the Western Hemisphere, and the start of Winter in the East! Log in and play to enjoy other benefits such as:

  • Huge XP bonuses for curveballs, “nice”, “great”, and “excellent” throws
  • Bonus XP for egg hatches
  • 50% Lucky Eggs in the shop

We’re also expecting a shutdown of all the Gyms in preparation of the Gym Rework, that is heavily implied to drop at the end of this event, sometime during this time frame!

  1. If you had to create the villain for a Pokémon game, what would he/she look like and what would his/her ideals be?

    • A female professor, and she would want to capture the legend and do cruel experiments with them because she thinks that the life of Pokemons isn’t meaningful and that they’re only made to serve humans

    • I already did
      His name is Ilko Andres
      He is a exceedingly strong Pokemon trainer who clawed his way to the very top with one clear defined goal to become the region’s champion
      He made his way and ruthlessly beat the elite four and the champion nearly working his Pokemon to death
      But when he was about to claim the title he was denied it, he was furious the champion said his actions were govern by raged and fueled with cruelty
      This man could never hold the honor of champion with such deplorable actions
      Outraged he vowed to bring the region to its knees to let everyone knew who was the strongest
      He founded Team Quake and plans to resurrect an ancient and destructive Pokemon to be the instrument of his goals

  3. My guess in regards to the Pokémon series transitioning to the Switch:

    Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon will be the last main series titles on the 3DS.
    GAME FREAK will then reveal the first two Gen VIII titles, potentially releasing near Christmas next year, or maybe even the Spring of 2019.
    Gen IV remakes will come, but not until Gen VIII, bringing us a repeat of ORAS coming out in Gen VI, instead of Gen V like many were expecting.

  5. Well I need but one more no Overlaps and can’t use Incineroar, Mudsdale, Oranguru, Kommo-o, A.Ninetales, or Magnezone

    And current dream team
    Goofball- Primarina
    Topaz- A.Raichu
    Solana- Liligant
    Jasmine- Salazal
    Comet- Minior (Pink)

    What shall the 6th be? And I’d not like another Stand alone Pokemon on my team. So who should I use?
