With that in mind, players can now find a second Remote Raid Pass bundle available in the Pokemon GO shop. This bundle offers players the insane value of three Remote Raid Passes for just 1 PokeCoin. That’s a very good deal and, considering what it takes to earn a few PokeCoins per day through in-game activities, the box is essentially free and shouldn’t really require any kind of real money microtransaction for the vast majority of players....
Pokemon GO is no stranger to bans, legitimate or not. Developer Niantic said early this year that it had banned over 1 million cheaters last year, while in June of that same year the company mistakenly sent bans out to players playing on iPhone that hadn’t done anything wrong. Pokemon GO is in the middle of its Spring into Spring event that sees many new updates arriving in the game, but some players are unable to partake in the fun because they are being hit with what they say are unjust bans....
Pokemon GO is all about catching them all, making the Pokemon that are available during limited events extremely sought after. Events tend to have special “costume Pokemon” such as a Pikachu wearing a Santa hat for Christmas. There are a few different ways to unlock the Pokemon, but they are typically unlocked via in-game eggs. Eggs are based on a similar feature in the Game Freak RPGs, and allow players to put them into an incubator to hatch the egg by walking a certain distance in the real world, granting the player a randomly selected Pokemon from a certain list....
For those unfamiliar with the event, Pokemon GO Fest 2021 will last for two days, from July 17-18, 2021.

For Niantic, the event seems to be quite important, given that official commemorative Pokemon GO Fest shirts will be made available for purchase in the US, Canada, and Japan....
Turtwig marks a major step forward for Pokemon GO’s Community Days. It will be the first starter Pokemon from the fourth Pokemon generation to be featured in a Community Day.

Turtwig will be Pokemon GO’s showcase Community Day Pokemon, with Chimchar and Piplup just a matter of months away....

Pokemon GO update 0.145 contains a variety of bug fixes, but the real meat of the update is hidden within the code. Dataminer Chrales has discovered that the update references a special encounter with Jirachi, the Mythical Steel/Psychic type Pokemon. According to the encounter’s coding, it looks as though Jirachi may appear as a sleeping Pokemon, similar to the recent Sleeping Snorlax Pokemon GO event. It’s currently unknown if players will have to utilize an item or Pokemon skill in order to wake it up, but sleeping does play into the Pokemon’s lore....
Though this run of the anime has a worldly scale, a good amount of attention is paid to the Galar Region given it is the most recent. Goh caught Sobble in a recent Pokemon Journeys episode, who appears in the new opening alongside his first partner Raboot. At the end, fans see the Slumbering Weald altar where Galar’s Legendary Pokemon sleep before getting called to save the world in Sword and Shield....
Among the most interesting connections to Unova there is Ingo himself, who traveled back in time and partially lost his memories, and paintings representing Unova’s Champion in the flesh - Alder.

FiveWalnut8586’s Pokemon Red map is extremely impressive, offering a faithful recreation of the first part of the Kanto region as seen in Pokemon Red. The map, which took two months to put together, starts Fortnite players off in Pallet Town, where they select their “starter” from three different chests, and then travel through the Viridian Forest. From there, players can visit Pewter City, complete with a boss fight against Brock’s Onix....
This is not the first time that a Pokemon character has been chosen to take on an ambassador role for the country of Japan. Previously, Iwate Prefecture chose the rock-type Pokemon Geodude as their tourism mascot, referencing the character for “rock” appearing in the word “Iwate.” Slowpoke, a slow-moving Psychic-type, also became a tourism ambassador for Kagawa Prefecture, while the Ground-type Sandshrew was chosen to represent Tottori Prefecture’s famous sand dunes....
Thanks to an impressive turnout and display during GO Fest 2020, Pokemon GO trainers managed to unlock all of the Ultra Rewards that were up for grabs. This included Dragon Week and Enigma Week, both of which have already concluded, and finally an Unova-themed week of rewards that is currently underway.

Team Rocket is the original antagonist team, based in the Kanto and Johto regions. They’re infamous for stealing or capturing rare Pokemon. In the anime, however, the face of Team Rocket is represented by none other than Jessie and James, and their sidekick Pokemon Meowth.

For those unaware, Unown are rare Pokemon first introduced in Gen 2 that resemble the alphabet, as well as the punctuation marks “?” and “!”. Pokemon GO first added the alphabet versions, followed by the “!” form, and finished out the 28 forms of Unown with “?”. However, they are extremely rare, with large urban areas perhaps seeing one form appear per day. Besides “?”, the alphabet-shaped Pokemon resembling “C,” “E,” “B,” “L,” “I,” spawned at Pokemon GO Fest, which many will realize spells out Celebi....
Pokemon GO players will now discover shiny murkrow in the wild. Although murkrow isn’t the most exciting monster to come across, the possibility of getting a shiny one may give players a newfound interest in the common creature. The shiny variant has a nice purple coloring and it’s confirmed that he is not an April Fool’s joke. Or, if he is a joke, that’s not stopping him from actually appearing in the game for the time being....

Many Pokemon GO players love being able to have a battle anytime without having to schedule one with a friend or an online stranger, and also love having a track of useful rewards to chase down. The matchmaking kept players of similar skill levels playing together, until later ranks. As average or below-average players approached Rank 10, the difficulty to win battles went up, to the point that Niantic had to add a “play until you win” feature to Pokemon GO to not overly frustrate players who bought a premium battle pass....
According to Pokemon Go Reddit user LimboMon, this rare bug can strike when adding a Pokemon to a gym, resulting in either an error appearing or a situation where the added Pokemon does not occupy the gym at all. All the steps for defending a gym go through, except for the part where other players can defeat that Pokemon and the defending player earns Pokecoins. Oddly enough, the Pokemon is still considered a defender even though it is not actually defending the gym, which means the player can’t use it for any other activities....
