All info on the Rocket event in Pokémon GO
These are the bonuses: We will list all the bonuses that are known for the event here. This gives you a good overview:
- Rocket Grunts battling other Cryptos – including new Cryptos like Quiekel, Nasgnet, Stollunior, Seemops, Liliep, and Anorith
- Team GO Rocket will generally appear more frequently
- Wild Pokémon include Golbat, Smogon, Ariados, Baldorfish, Sniebel, Hunduster, Blanas, Skunkapuh, Pionskora, and Toxiped
- The egg pool for 12 km eggs is expanding
- There will be special raids and quests around Team GO Rocket
- A limited research task will start
- Eggs will hatch twice as fast
Are there new Shinies? Nothing is known about that yet. However, the currently announced spawns promise some exciting Shiny checks. Smogon, Baldorfish, Sniebel, Hunduster, and Pionskora can all be encountered in their shiny form.
This is changing with the 12 km eggs: The Curious Eggs that you can receive from the Rocket bosses will gain new additions. Baldorfish, Larvitar, Krebscorps, Absol, Pionskora, Ganovil, Zurrokex, Gladiantri, Skallyk, and Kapuno will hatch from the 12 km eggs starting from the event. Unratütox will be removed from the eggs.
Is the event worth it? After the numerous events around the individual generations in January, the Rocket event is now a nice change.
The announced spawns come from different generations and some rare Pokémon, such as Pionskora or Baldorfish, are included.
It remains to be seen whether the Rocket bosses will change and whether they will battle with new Pokémon. Then we could hope for more Crypto Shinies there.
What’s next? February is once again full of events and there’s a lot to do. Spotlight hours, raid hours, and more events are waiting for you. Here’s an overview:
