Upcoming Pokemon GO Event Adding 2 New Paldean Pokemon

This January 15th, Pokémon GO's Fashion Week: Taken Over event introduces Shroodle and Grafaiai, marking their in-game debut. This event, running until January 19th at 8 PM local time, offers a wealth of activities beyond these new Gen IX additions.

Key highlights include:

• Shroodle & Grafaiai Arrival: Hatch Shroodle from 12km Eggs and evolve it into Grafaiai using 50 Shroodle Candy.

• Shadow Pokémon Focus: A special research storyline allows players to rescue Shadow Palkia. Increased Team GO Rocket encounters at PokéStops and in balloons provide opportunities to acquire Shadow Taillow, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Trubbish, and Bunnelby. Shadow Raids feature a roster of familiar faces, including Shadow Electabuzz, Magmar, and Wobbuffet, with the added convenience of Remote Raid Pass compatibility.

• Event Bonuses & Rewards: Utilize Charged TMs to remove Frustration from Shadow Pokémon. Field Research tasks offer Mysterious Components, Charged TMs, and Fast TMs. Collection Challenges, Showcases, and a 300-coin bundle (Incubator, Rocket Radar, Premium Battle Pass) are also available. Snapshot encounters with a fashionably attired Croagunk add a touch of flair.

Event Schedule: Wednesday, January 15th, 12 AM to Sunday, January 19th, 8 PM (local time).
