With the new Rocket Event, there will also be a new Pokémon in Pokémon GO. We explain to you how you can catch it.
Which Pokémon is it? This weekend the new Stolen-Treasures
-event in Pokémon GO is starting. Team Rocket returns and brings some new Crypto-Pokémon that have not yet been found in the game. Additionally, another Pokémon will make its debut in Pokémon GO: Knattox.
This Pokémon comes from the 9th game generation and has the types Steel and Poison. It also has an evolution, Knattatox, which will also be unlocked in Pokémon GO. If you want to hunt for Knattox, you need mainly one thing: patience. Because there is only one way to obtain the Pokémon.
Defeat Rockets, make distance, hatch eggs
How can I obtain Knattox? If you want to catch Knattox, you must first defeat Rocket bosses. Knattox will only be found through hatching 12-km eggs. You will receive these only if you defeat a Rocket boss and have sufficient space in your egg bag.
To challenge a Rocket boss, you need the Rocket Radar. To obtain this, you must first defeat 6 Rocket Grunts.
As there are also several Pokémon that can hatch from 12-km eggs, this can become a lengthy process. After all, you must first defeat the Rocket Grunts each time, find and defeat a Rocket boss, and then hatch the 12-km egg.
If you want to collect multiple specimens of Knattox or quickly get candies through hatching to evolve it, this can take quite some time.
What do you think of the new Pokémon and the method to obtain it? Are you also looking forward to this Pokémon or do you think the process to obtain it is far too tedious? Feel free to share your opinion in the comments and exchange views with other trainers. An overview of the events in January 2024 in Pokémon GO can also be found with us.
