For the Community Day with Magikarp in August at Pokémon GO, you can purchase an additional ticket for about €1. This is called “Big Splash”. We will show you the quests and rewards of this add-on.
What is this ticket? Today, on August 8, 2020, the Community Day with Magikarp runs from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM local time. In line with this event, you will find a ticket in the Pokémon GO shop that has been specially created for this occasion. The item costs – depending on whether you play through the Samsung Play Store or Google Store – about 99 cents. With it, you unlock the special research “Big Splash”.
We will show you all the quests that await you in this research. And all the rewards like Stardust, Candy, and more. This makes it easier for you to decide whether the ticket purchase is worth it for you.
