Keep an eye out for regional Flabébé variations, including Red Flower in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Blue Flower in the Asia-Pacific region, and Yellow Flower in the Americas. Lucky trainers might also encounter White or Orange Flower Flabébé, no matter where they are.

Other Pokémon you'll encounter more frequently in the wild include Paras, Natu, Joltik, and various Burmy forms. For an added challenge, Dialga and Enamorus (Incarnate Forme) will appear in Five-Star Raids, while Mega Medicham and Mega Tyranitar will dominate Mega Raids. Both raid and wild encounters offer a chance to catch some rare Shiny Pokémon if luck is on your side.

For collectors, two km Eggs hatched during the event will contain Pokémon like Togepi, Azurill, Budew, and Dedenne. Completing Field Research tasks will reward you with encounters with Burmy and Nymble. Make sure not to miss the event-themed Timed Research and Collection Challenge, which offer rewards such as Stardust, Poké Balls, and additional encounters with event-themed Pokémon.

To cap it all off, PokéStop Showcases will feature event-themed Pokémon, so keep your eyes peeled. Don't forget to visit the Pokémon Go Web Store to stock up on all the resources you need to kickstart your journey.
