Pokemon GO Adding Galar Pokemon in Upcoming Event

The Steely Resolve event in Pokémon GO, running from January 21st to 26th, marks the highly anticipated arrival of the Corviknight evolutionary line: Rookidee, Corvisquire, and Corviknight. This follows the earlier tease of these Pokémon in the Dual Destiny Season's loading screen.

This event is packed with activities:

New Pokémon and Features:

  • Debut: Rookidee, Corvisquire, and Corviknight enter the Pokémon GO world.
  • Special Research: A new Dual Destiny Special Research questline offers unique rewards.
  • Field Research Tasks: Complete these tasks for additional rewards.
  • Shiny Pokémon: Increased chances to encounter shiny versions of several Pokémon (Clefairy, Machop, Totodile, Marill, Hoppip, Paldean Wooper, Shieldon, Bunnelby, Mareanie, Lickitung, Skorupi, Pancham, Amaura, Deoxys (Attack & Defense Forms), Dialga, Mega Gallade, and Mega Medicham).
  • Magnetic Lure Modules: Attract Pokémon like Onix, Beldum, Shieldon, and Rookidee.
  • Charged TM: Use a Charged TM to remove Frustration from Shadow Pokémon.
  • Increased Spawns: Boosted spawn rates for Clefairy, Paldean Wooper, Carbink, and others.
  • 2km Eggs: Hatch Shieldon, Carbink, Mareanie, and Rookidee.

Event Bonuses & Raid Battles:

  • Featured Attacks: Evolving specific Pokémon during the event grants them unique attacks (e.g., Corviknight learning Iron Head).
  • Raids: One-star, five-star (Deoxys, Dialga), and Mega raids featuring various Pokémon.
  • GO Battle Week (January 21st-26th): 4x Stardust from win rewards, increased daily battle sets (20 instead of 5), and free battle-themed Timed Research.

Paid Content:

  • A $5 Paid Timed Research will be available.

The Steely Resolve event promises a significant addition to the Pokémon GO roster and a wealth of gameplay opportunities. Alongside the Corviknight line, the event features increased shiny rates, boosted spawns, and special research, making it a must-attend event for Pokémon GO trainers. The concurrent GO Battle Week adds further incentive for competitive players.
