Pokemon GO has announced the new Harvest Festival event, which will begin on November 7. The Harvest Festival will be one of the first Pokemon GO events to take place in November, celebrating autumn with trainers by offering a variety of bonuses.
The first edition of the Harvest Festival took place between October 12 and 17 last year and focused on Grass-type Pokemon. One of the highlights was the addition of Smoliv and its evolutions to Pokemon GO, with trainers encountering the little Paldean critter in the wild and through Field Research tasks. The same event saw encounters in the wild with pocket monsters such as Bellsprout, Flabebe, Bounsweet, and Sunkern. Trainers also enjoyed bonuses such as extended time for Mossy Lure Modules, new Collection Challenges, and PokeStop Showcases.
Pokemon GO Has Bad News for Fans of Popular Ghost-Type
Pokemon GO address a big elephant in the room, and gives some bad news to players waiting for a popular Ghost-type pocket monster.
This year will be no different, with the Pokemon GO Harvest Festival event starting at 10 am on November 7 and ending at 8 pm local time on October 12. One of the highlights is Smoliv, which will be available for the first time in shiny form. In addition to Smoliv, the pool of Pokemon found in the wild has 11 other monsters, including Pumpkaboo in four different sizes. Trainers will earn doubled Candy for capturing monsters, shiny Pumpkaboo will have a greater chance of appearing, and Mossy Lure Modules will attract Pokemon such as Alolan Exeggutor and Snorlax.
