It’s the Pokémon Go Battle Showdown.
☆ NintendObs Weekly – Monday, April 30, 2018 – Sunday, May 6, 2018.
A Fighting-Type Free-for-All in Pokémon GO
Get a scrappy start to the month of May in the Pokémon GO Battle Showdown event.
May 01, 2018
For the first two weeks in May, be on the lookout for more Fighting-type Pokémon in Pokémon GO! Pugilistic Pokémon such as Mankey, Machop, Makuhita, and Meditite will appear in the wild more frequently, and watch out for cute and hard-to-find Tyrogue hatching from Eggs more often.
What would a Pokémon GO Battle Showdown event be without extra rewards for battling? You’ll get double the XP for taking on Gyms and raids. When you interact with a Gym, you’ll get double the XP toward earning a Badge as you usually earn. When you spin the Photo Disc in a Gym, you’ll receive more items than usual. Finally, when you’re successful in a raid, you’re guaranteed to receive a Rare Candy, and whether you win or lose, you’ll earn 3,000 Stardust—six times the usual amount!
The event runs from 1 p.m. (PDT) on May 1 until 1 p.m. (PDT) on May 14, 2018. Don’t miss out on a fortnight’s fun of Fighting-type Pokémon and fierce battles!
