The 2nd part of the Winter Holidays starts in Pokémon GO. You can expect a new monster and an increased shiny chance for rare monsters.
What kind of event is this? The 2nd part of the Winter Holidays follows immediately from the 1st part. The event starts on Wednesday, December 24, 2025, at 10:00 AM and runs until Monday, December 29, 2025, at 8:00 PM.
How do I get Klonkett? The rock-type monster Klonkett is part of it. You can evolve this 8th generation monster into Wagong for 25 candies and then into Montecarbo for 100 candies.
You can find the new monster with a bit of luck in the wild, and you can also challenge, defeat, and catch it in 1-star raids. You cannot obtain the monster as shiny for now.
