In Pokémon GO there is a gift on October 6. The developers “Niantic” are celebrating their birthday and are distributing gift boxes to the trainers. You can pick up the special box for free today, but you have to do it on time. We show you what’s inside.
What kind of gift is this? In September, the Pokémon GO team announced that a small event was planned for today. The birthday of the development studio is to be celebrated with you. For this, you will find a gift box in the Pokémon GO shop.
Due to the time difference, some trainers have already been able to open the box. We will show you what’s inside and which items Niantic has gifted you.
Balls, TMs, and Lucky Egg in the Gift Box
What’s inside: Trainers have already shared pictures of the opened box on reddit, showing what Niantic has gifted you this time.
- 50 Poké Balls
- 1 Lucky Egg
- 1 Charged TM
- 1 Instant TM
Where can you find the box? To do this, you just have to open Pokémon GO and head to the in-game shop. In the overview of the boxes, you will find the blue special box, which is free for you. You redeem it like any other box.
When will the box be available? If you want the gift, you need to hurry. You only have six hours to pick up the items. You will find the box today, on October 6, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM in the Pokémon GO shop. After that, the contents will disappear and you will not be able to pick it up later.
This is the discussion: The community is discussing the contents of the gift on reddit and Twitter. FleeceKing writes on Twitter: “Of course, it is a win to receive a free box with free items. But for a company’s birthday, this seems a little sparse.”
Other trainers would have at least hoped for top TMs to get even more value from the gift.
Here opinions in the community are divided. For some, everything is good because it’s a free gift. Others would have liked more content. How do you like the gift box for Niantic’s birthday? Are you happy with it and just take what is free, or would you have preferred different contents?
In the coming days, several events are expected in the game. An overview of all events in October 2021 for Pokémon GO can be found here on MeinMMO.
