In Pokémon GO, a new event is starting soon, which will bring Shiny Farbigeagle into the game, among other things. The release of New Pokémon Snap is being celebrated. We will show you all the bonuses.
When does the event start? It starts at the end of the month. The event kicks off on April 29 at 10:00 AM and runs until May 2 at 8:00 PM. Generally, it’s all about Pokémon that appear in the new Switch game New Pokémon Snap.
With the release of the new game, Shiny Farbegale, as well as other useful Pokémon, will appear in Pokémon GO. Here’s an overview for you.
Snap Event in Pokémon GO – All Information
These are the bonuses: This time, it’s all about Pokémon originating from the Lentil region, the region from New Pokémon Snap. The bonuses include:
- Pokémon from the Lentil region, such as Loturzel, Tuska, and Piccolente, will appear more frequently in the wild
- Farbigeagle will appear more frequently in snapshots – this time also for the first time as Shiny
- Pokémon from the Lentil region will appear in raids. This includes Aquana, Meganie, and Knacklion
- There are new field research tasks and a limited-time research
- There are new avatar items and stickers for your gifts
How do you get Shiny Farbigeagle? To do this, you need to make snapshots as usual. So take lots of photos of Pokémon during the event to have encounters with Farbigeagle. There is no other way to obtain the Pokémon in the game.
During the event, several snapshots will be available each day. However, the number will also be limited here. You can’t really hunt for Shiny Farbigeagle, but can only make a certain number of snapshots per day. If there’s no Shiny Farbigeagle among them, you’ll have to hope for the next day.
Niantic emphasizes that there will be no Shiny Farbigeagle after the event. However, there are plans for further events where Farbigeagle will again be the focus and appear as Shiny.
What good spawns are there? So far, Niantic has only mentioned Loturzel, Tuska, and Piccolente. So far, only Loturzel can appear in its shiny form. However, when looking at the trailer for New Pokémon Snap, many other Pokémon can be seen that could appear. We embed the trailer here:
What’s next in Pokémon GO? This month, you can expect other events where new Shinys will appear. This includes the Sustainability Week. There will also be new raid and spotlight hours again. You can find an overview of all events in April here:
