Pokémon Go is experiencing a second renaissance. With numerous new events, mechanics, and thus, Pokémon, Niantic’s game continues to receive new content to the delight of its fans. They cannot complain about not having new things to do almost constantly in a game that is also characterized by being slow-paced and relaxing. Something that might change a bit with the game’s upcoming event.
Wild Area will be the next event coming to Pokémon Go, promising us the opportunity to catch numerous and very powerful electric and poison-type Pokémon. This will help us complete our Pokédex or strengthen those Pokémon we like and want to make stronger with a good dose of candies.
But that won’t be all. Because along with the Wild Area, a new and fearsome Pokémon will arrive: Toxtricity. This Pokémon, with its unique poison/electric type mix, is well known to those who follow the competitive side of Pokémon in recent years, and it will arrive in the game in two special forms. It will have a Gigamax version, in which between 10 and 20 trainers will have to join forces to battle against it for the chance to capture it. But it will also have a Dynamax version, which will also be part of the event.
In addition to that, this event will include two more novelties. On one hand, the inclusion of the Mighty Pokémon, a larger version with higher life, attack, and defense statistics than their normal versions, which can be found during the event. On the other hand, the inclusion of a new type of poke ball, the go safari ball, which can be used to capture Mighty Pokémon more easily, making the search and capture of this class of unique monsters much more pleasant.
If we’ve piqued your interest, the Wild Area event will take place between November 23 and 24. Before that, Gigantamax Pokémon will arrive on October 26 and the Halloween event will run from October 22 to 28, adding one of the most adorably terrifying Pokémon of recent times. So don’t say we didn’t warn you: interesting times are coming for Pokémon GO players.
After the visit from Professor Willow, choose your Pokémon trainer and go out to hunt some creatures. You must be careful because it won’t be an easy task; first, you have to catch one of the three available Pokémon: Squirtle, Bulbasaur, or Charmander. Once you’ve done that, your adventure begins. Guide yourself through the map to capture your little monsters and make use of all the alternatives and possibilities of Pokémon GO.
