As spotted by Serebii.net, Niantic, the developer of Pokemon Go, revealed details about the 2022 Fashion Week event that’s coming to Pokemon Go.
The 2022 Fashion Week event will run from September 27, 2022 at 10 a.m. local time until October 3, 2022 at 8 p.m. local time.
Once this event begins, Mareanie, Toxapex, and Shiny Furfrou will become available to collect in Pokemon Go. New avatar items will also be added to the in-game store. Finally, four new costumed Pokemon will become available to collect in Pokemon Go: costumed Diglett, costumed Dugtrio, costumed Absol, and costumed Toxicroak.
During the 2022 Fashion Week event, costumed Butterfree, Murkrow, Glameow, costumed Croagunk, costumed Blitzle, Gothita, female Frillish, Furfrou, and Mareanie will appear more frequently than normal in the wild. Costumed Diglett, costumed Kirlia, and costumed Absol will also have the chance to appear in the wild during this event, though the Pokemon Go website indicated they’ll be rarer than the other featured Pokemon.
Players will be able to complete Timed Research tasks during this event to earn encounters with costumed Diglett, costumed Absol, and costumed Croagunk.
A variety of Pokemon will appear in Raids during this event:
Elsewhere, players will have the chance to hatch costumed Diglett, costumed Smoochum, costumed Shinx, and costumed Croagunk from 7 km Eggs that are collected during this event.
In addition, players will be able to complete event-themed Field Research tasks during this event to earn encounters with Eevee, Murkrow, Skitty, Glameow, costumed Croagunk, costumed Blitzle, Furfrou, and Mareanie.
Finally, on the Pokemon Go website, Niantic said players will be able to take Snapshots during this event to receive encounters with “a fashionable Pokémon.”
