Niantic is continuing to announce new events and content for Pokémon GO. Read on below to learn more:
Pokémon GO Adventure Week returns for another Fossil-centric event!
Adventurers,
Rock-type and Fossil Pokémon are everywhere! It must be that time of year again—Adventure Week will soon be upon us. Get ready to catch and hatch your favorite ancient Pokémon!
In a groundbreaking new development, Mega Tyranitar will also emerge for the first time in Pokémon GO. Be sure to take on this colossal power in Mega Raids during the event!
And, for the first time in Pokémon GO, you’ll be able to encounter Shiny Tyrunt and Shiny Amaura—if you’re lucky! Tyrunt and Amaura hatched from Eggs during the event will have a greater chance of being a Shiny Pokémon than Tyrunt or Amaura found in the wild.
