  • Exclusive research tasks for Alolan Exeggutor, Azumarill, and Audino
  • 2x Hatch Candy
  • 1 Hour Lucky Eggs

This should be a great chance for players to get some rare Pokemon that they may have missed, such as Audino, as well as candy for potentially rare Pokemon. In particular, Togepi's final evolution, Togekiss, has a very strong presence in the upcoming Master League, and Riolu's evolution, Lucario, is well known as the top fighting type raid attacker in the game right now. Keep an eye on our events page to keep track of this and other Pokemon Go Events!
