Great news for Pokemon fans! Pokemon GO is kicking off the new year with a throwback by placing Pokémons that are originally discovered in the Hoenn region into the game and it will be appearing more frequently in the wild.
This event will only be for a limited time, starting from now until 30 January 2019, at 5am, Malaysian timing.
The new feature includes raid battles that includes Pokémon that are originally discovered in the Hoenn region, such as the Legendary Pokémon Kyogre and Groudon.
As usual, the more you walk, the higher chances of hatching an egg! With the new feature, Pokémon originally discovered in the Hoenn region will have an increased chance of hatching from 7km eggs.
According to Niantic, players will also stand a chance to encounter Shiny Zigzagoon and Shiny Taillow, which is pretty rare in the game itself.
To dive deeper into the game, players could do field research as it will highlight Pokémons that are originally discovered in the Hoenn region.
To top it all off, there’ll be new avatar items inspired by Team Magma and Team Aqua, the original villains of the Hoenn region in Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire. All of this can found in the Style Shop.
