In Pokémon GO the legendary season has started, marking the beginning of the 2nd Season. We will show you all the new spawns and reveal the changes that have been made.
This is the legendary season: On March 1st, the legendary season in Pokémon GO began. It will influence spawns outside events for a full 3 months.
To keep you informed about what is happening, we will list all the new features.
Seasons can be compared to seasons. They change the spawns that appear outside events and give the game a general direction.
Spawns for the legendary season
What you can find in Europe now: Spawns are divided between the northern and southern hemispheres. While we in the north receive spring spawns, the south gets more autumnal spawns.
For us in Europe, the spawns from the northern hemisphere are interesting. Here are the spawns:
- Tangela
- Wadribie
- Glibunkel
- Piccolente
- Chelast
- Panflam
- Plinfa
- Spring-Sesokitz
- Sichlor
- Dratini
- Waumboll
- Raupy
- Bluzuk
- Quapsel
- Teddiursa
- Miltank
- Snubbull
- Loturzel
- Schwalbini
- Eneco
- Shuppet
- Haspiror
- Nagelotz
- Wattzapf
- Rattfratz
- Nidoran
- Enton
- Magnetilo
- Nebulak
- Tragosso
- Wablu
- Waumpel
- Stollunior
- Flurmel
- Spoink
- Leufeo
These spawns are interesting: In addition to the Pokémon listed above, there are some Pokémon that are also interesting and should appear more frequently.
These include Kaumalat and Quabbel, among others. Kaumalat is usually very rare in the wild but is now expected to appear more frequently. Quabbel has only appeared through the PvP league and will now also appear in the wild.
Some trainers on reddit report that other rare Pokémon are appearing more frequently in the wild. Knarksel and Milza, for instance, have been reported more frequently in local communities than usual.
This is what trainers are complaining about: Players from the northern hemisphere feel somewhat disadvantaged, as the spawns in the southern hemisphere seem to be significantly better.
It starts, among other things, with Paras and Habitak. These are two Pokémon that only received their shiny form during the Kanto Tour. Both monsters appear in the south of the world, but not more frequently in the north.
But eF-eM and Kastadur have also been announced for the south and are generally very rare. Kaumalat, on the other hand, appears in both regions – so there is no advantage here.
More changes for the new season
This is new in raids: Here, level-5 raids now grant more XP per raid. There should now be 11,750 XP per legendary raid. That is 1,750 XP more than before. So the change is quite small and you will not level up significantly faster.
This is new regarding catch rates: Some Pokémon are now easier to catch! Trainers report that for example Scoppel has a significantly greener circle and stays in the Pokéball easier. Also, several other monsters, especially from the 6th generation, are now easier to catch.
This is new regarding nests: There are some new Pokémon in nests. So check your nearby nests and see if there’s a Pokémon you still need.
Additionally, with the start of the season, new raid bosses are coming to Pokémon GO! You can find an overview of this in another article on MeinMMO:
