Niantic has launched an exciting event in Pokémon GO, which will be available until February 2nd, in celebration of the Lunar New Year. This is an opportunity that players should not miss, as they will be able to obtain various rewards and participate in special daily tasks.
Many rewards for playing
Each player will receive a free field research task every day, which grants five Pokécoins for completing simple objectives, such as catching three Pokémon, sending a gift, or spinning three Pokéstops. Additionally, there is a chance to obtain a special mission that provides 25 Pokécoins for capturing a total of 25 Pokémon, although this mission will be random, depending on the player’s luck.
During this event, players will also enjoy special bonuses that increase the chances of receiving a lucky Pokémon when trading and generating lucky friendships, which can be key to strengthening strategies in the game.
In relation to the theme of the event, several Pokémon associated with the symbol of the Lunar New Year, such as Ekans, Onix, Snivy, Gyarados, and Dratini, will appear more frequently. Additionally, other Pokémon like Makuhita and Meditite will be able to hatch from two-kilometer Eggs, adding more diversity to the encounters during this celebration.
Another of the highlighted tasks during the event will involve a considerable physical effort. Players will need to walk and capture various Pokémon to unlock Zygarde cells, which adds an additional element of challenge and reward to the gaming experience.
Without a doubt, this Pokémon GO event represents an excellent way to celebrate the Lunar New Year, providing trainers with unique opportunities to enhance their collection and social life within the game.
