Team GO Rocket Event Begins

A new event to mark the resurgence of Team GO Rocket’s presence in Pokémon GO has started! Different Pokémon will have a higher chance of appearing in the world. Check out the official details:

Date + Time

  • Thursday, July 25, 2019, at 1 p.m. until Thursday, August 1, 2019, at 1 p.m. PDT (GMT −7)

Features

  • Oddly specific Shiny Pokémon have started appearing! Our research has found that if you’re lucky, you may encounter a Shiny Ekans or Shiny Koffing in the wild, in raids, or in Eggs!
  • The following Pokémon will hatch more frequently from Eggs: Rattata, Ekans, Sandshrew, Zubat, Meowth, Machop, Magnemite, Grimer, Gastly, Drowzee, Cubone, Koffing, Murkrow, Sneasel, Houndour, and Poochyena.
  • Raids will feature Pokémon that we believe are significant to Team GO Rocket.

If you’ve been looking to catch Shiny Ekans or Koffing it may be a good idea to start searching! Let us know what you’re excited about in the comments. Head to our Discord for discussion about Pokémon Sword & Shield! Don’t forget that we’re also currently voting for the best Hoenn starter as well!
