Get ready for an exciting Pokémon GO event during the upcoming Fashion Week: Taken Over, happening from January 15th to January 19th. This event not only introduces the debut of Shroodle and its evolution, Grafaiai, which you can hatch from 12 km Eggs, but also offers a thrilling opportunity to face off against Team Go Rocket. Throughout the event, you'll encounter Team Go Rocket at PokéStops and in balloons more frequently, providing ample chances to challenge them and use Charged TMs to help your Shadow Pokémon forget the Frustration move.
During Fashion Week: Taken Over, you'll have the chance to battle and rescue Shadow Palkia from Giovanni. A special research task will lead you to a Super Rocket Radar, setting the stage for this epic showdown. Additionally, the event introduces new Shadow Pokémon, including Shadow Taillow, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Trubbish, and Bunnelby. Some of these might even be Shiny, adding an extra layer of excitement to your rescues. These Shadow Pokémon can be challenged through various Shadow Raids, and for the first time, you can use Remote Raid Passes to participate in these battles from anywhere.
The event also features Field Research tasks that reward you with Mysterious Components, Charged TMs, and Fast TMs. Completing a special Collection Challenge will grant you Stardust and an encounter with Trubbish, enriching your Pokémon collection.
Mark your calendars for Sunday, January 19, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time, for the Ho-Oh Shadow Raid Day. This event promises extra Raid Passes and a higher chance of encountering Shiny Ho-Oh. Pokémon caught during this period can learn the powerful Charged Attack Sacred Fire. For those looking to maximize their rewards, an event ticket is available for $5, offering numerous additional benefits.
