What can you expect from the April Fools’ Event 2024?
Every hit is fabulous: As the developers announced today, March 31, 2024, on their X account, there will be plenty of fabulous throws in the game for this year’s April Fools’ event. Whether you hit a Pokémon with a good, great, or fabulous throw, it will automatically count as a fabulous throw.

This is also confirmed by trainers from the first time zones on Reddit, who are particularly happy about the associated XP bonus. For every fabulous throw, you will receive 1,000 XP. Silveruchu writes on Reddit: Yes, it’s true. They all count as fabulous throws and give 1000 XP.
Special Pokémon encounter: But those were not all the bonuses. In various event field research, you have the chance to snag Stardust, Poké Balls, and the rarer Pokémon Pandir in forms 1 to 8. With the help of LeekDuck’s summary, we have summarized the corresponding tasks below:

You just need to land at least one good throw, which will then be converted into a fabulous throw. On top of that, you can also gather a significant amount of experience points.
Shiny hunters will also benefit from the field research on Pandir. Since there are 8 different forms of the Pokémon, you have the opportunity to easily fill in your Pokédex and Shiny collection. And the Stardust research is also worth it to boost your supplies.
