The Season of Heritage continues with the Mountains of Power
event, running through January 13, 2022, at 8:00 p.m. local time. Professor
Willow’s research of the mysterious door continues with Team Leader Spark at
his side. Help the two by completing research tasks focused on catching
Pokémon, earning Buddy Candy, and hatching Eggs, and you’ll earn reward
encounters with Fire-, Rock-, and Steel-type Pokémon, such as the magnificent
Mawile or unbending Beldum. Completing Field Research tasks will earn you
encounters with Alolan Geodude, Slugma, and Mawile.
To celebrate this massively monumental mountainous event, Shiny
Slugma and Mega Aerodactyl will be appearing in Pokémon GO for the first time. The
Mountains of Power event is also the perfect opportunity to become Best Buddies
with your Pokémon, as the walking distance required to earn hearts with your buddy
will be halved.
Pokémon appearing in the wild during the Mountains of Power
event include Zubat, Machop, Geodude, Slugma, Nosepass, and Barboach. If you’re
lucky, you might encounter Shiny Onix, Shiny Slugma, or Shiny Ferroseed.
