Currently, the Egg Hatch Marathon is running in Pokémon GO, and you can get Party Hat Wurmple from eggs. However, the highlight for many players is now becoming a disappointment.
This is what the Egg Hatch Marathon brings: In addition to many bonuses related to eggs and Adventure Sync, there are also Party Hat Pokémon. Woingenau and Rattikarl can be found in raids and eggs, while Pichu and Wurmple can only be found in eggs.
For many trainers, Party Hat Wurmple is the highlight of the event, as it has been a long-awaited wish, but the rarity of the Pokémon is now disappointing many players.
Party Hat Wurmple disappoints hundreds of players
This is what’s behind the Pokémon: Party Hat Wurmple has been a kind of running gag in the community for months. While Niantic has released more and more Pikachu with different hats, players demanded variety with the Pokémon. Thus, Party Hat Wurmple was born.
The joke was kept alive again and again, and under almost every new Hat Pikachu, there was the question of when Party Hat Wurmple would finally come.
This is the situation with Party Hat Wurmple now: The announcement of the event Pokémon was celebrated. Many trainers could not believe that this joke Pokémon was actually making its way into the game.
However, the disappointment regarding the release is great. Party Hat Wurmple is not available in the wild but only in eggs. Thus, you have to buy expensive incubators to obtain this favorite.
This is what players are demanding: The complaints surrounding the event are numerous. If you look at the comments under the Tweet from Pokémon GO about the event, the majority of players demand that Wurmple also spawns in the wild.
Other players even accuse Niantic of merely trying to extract money here. They believe that Niantic is exploiting the hype surrounding Wurmple for financial gain, claim angry trainers.
Is the criticism of the players justified? Indeed, it is not entirely understandable why at least Pokémon like Wurmple or Rattikarl do not spawn in the wild either.
Only Pikachu with Party Hat can be found in the wild, but the spawn rate is only minimally increased there.
One must indeed spend a large amount of money to get all potential Shinies. Thus, the accusation of a Pay2Win factor is not completely unfounded.
Nevertheless, it must also be noted that all Pokémon can be obtained without spending money. Each day there is a free raid pass, and the infinite incubator can continuously hatch event eggs.
What do you think? Is it acceptable that most of the event Pokémon can only be obtained from raids and eggs?
