We say goodbye to Kyogre and now Groudon is live. It will be here until July 10, after which we don't know what Raid Boss is coming.
Go's Third Anniversary:
Alright, it's been a long three years. Those of us who joined on day 1 on July 5/6 can probably remember the many changes and memories (for better or worse) that this game has elicited.
Naturally, this special occasion is backed up by an event. Starting on June 28th, we are getting the following:
- Shiny Alolan Pokémon: Rattata, Sandshrew, Vulpix, Diglett, Meowth, Geodude, Grimer, and Exeggutor will now be released.
- Team Leader items will be in the shop (think like Candela's shirt or whatever).
- Until July 6, Party Hat Pikachu will be the photobomber instead of Smeargle. Once per day.
- Until July 6, Party Hat Pichu also joins 7Ks.
- Until Sept 2, Special Research that focuses on giving new players a jump-start / things they've missed out on will debut.
- Until Sept 2, Raid Bosses can be taken down faster and you can earn more Premier Balls.
- Until Sept 2, Trading Pokémon will cost ¼ less Stardust.
Additionally, the picture in the blog teases Snivy, Tepig, and Oshawott, so we should be getting Gen 5 soon. Mime Jr. is also teased (and it is not currently released). Mewtwo and Mew can be seen on the top right, presumably because of the Rocket event we'll be getting eventually.
