Celebrate the arrival of spring in the northern hemisphere with a limited time event.
Pokemon Go is getting ready to celebrate spring with a new in-game event.
From April 9 at 8 a.m. to April 16 at 10 p.m. local time, a variety of spring-themed bonuses and updates will be available in Pokemon Go. Here’s what you need to know:
It’s worth pointing out that none of these updates relate to Raids, which means you’ll be able to participate in this event without teaming up with other players. This is in keeping with the game’s recent changes and updates that have focused on solo gameplay in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Also keep in mind that the game is still allowing you to hatch Eggs after walking half of the normal required distance, so the 2 km Eggs you collect during this event will hatch after walking only 1 km (or less, if you use a Super Incubator). If you decide to take a walk outside to hatch these Eggs, make sure to follow the proper social distancing practices if you do come across other people.
