Pokemon GO Reveals Enchanted Hollow Details
Next up is Pokemon GO's Enchanted Hollow event, which begins on November 4 at 10 am and closes out on November 9 at 8 pm player local time. Event Pokemon players can find in the wild include Paras and Stantler, which can be Shiny, as well as Nickit and a rare chance to encounter Tarountula. Encounter rates can be increased by using a Mossy Lure, as Paras, Stantler, Cottonee, Petilil, Karrablast, Shelmet, and Tarountula will appear more frequently, with all having a Shiny chance except for Tarountula. PokeStops will be decorated with "event-themed patches of forestry," and players who use them will get 2X the XP for spinning the PokeStop, and 2x the duration of Lures.
As usual, Raids will be included, with Paras, Stantler, and Tarountula appearing in One-Star Raids, while Leavanny, Scolipede, and Drampa will be in Three-Star Raids. In the Raids, Paras, Stantler, and Drampa have a chance of being Shiny. Field Research will reward players with encounters with Paras, Stantler, Cottonee, Petilil, Karrablast, Shelmet, and a small chance of Drampa. All of the Field Research task Pokemon have a chance of being Shiny. Those who are so inclined can also purchase the Paid Timed Research for $1.99 USD, which rewards players with a Mossy Lure Module, two Incense, three Lucky Eggs, and encounters with Paras, Stantler, Drampa, and Tarountula. Event Collection Challenges will reward players with encounters with Tarountula and XP.
While these events give players things to keep busy with, the recent increase to Pokemon GO's level cap has ensured that most players won't be wasting XP. Players can now go as far as level 80, and have been given a boost if they were under level 50 when the update was applied. Though this change came with some mixed opinions on the part of players, there's definitely plenty to work towards in the game.
