Bramblin hit Pokémon GO on October 13 at 10 a.m. local time as part of the Fall Marathon: Buddy Trek event. It’s the first appearance of the Ghost/Grass-type Tumbleweed Pokémon from Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet in the mobile game. According to Pokémon GO’s event details, Bramblin’s debut runs until October 19 at 8 p.m. local time, and you won’t find it in normal wild spawns. You get encounters through Incense, event research tasks, and GO Pass progression.
So the window is pretty tight. The event started on October 13 at 10 a.m. local time, and you only have until October 19 at 8 p.m. local time to pick up Bramblin. Pokémon GO’s Fall Marathon: Buddy Trek details also spell out that Incense, event research tasks, and GO Pass progression are the only ways to trigger encounters, rather than the usual wild spawns.
That makes Bramblin a little tougher to track down than some players were expecting, especially in an October that already feels packed, coming off September’s Phantump Catch Mastery event and Pokémon GO’s usual fall push for Ghost-types.
For collectors, this debut matters for a simple reason: this is the first Paldean Bramblin in Pokémon GO at all. And Bramblin’s Pokédex lore from Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet is still memorable. You’re catching a possessed tumbleweed, described as dried grass brought to life by a soul that never made it to the afterlife.
If you collect new Ghost-types, this is one you’ll probably want to grab. Just know that evolving Bramblin into Brambleghast takes 50 Candy and 20 km with Bramblin as your buddy, according to Bramblin’s Pokémon GO evolution requirements. Some players already see that as a grind, Incense rates have gotten mixed reactions, and the event details say its shiny still isn’t available.
You can get Bramblin now in Pokémon GO on iOS and Android during Fall Marathon: Buddy Trek.
