Given its many different trims, Furfrou was a perfect inclusion to Fashion Week. In Pokemon X and Y, trainers could change Furfrou’s appearance at a salon in Lumiouse City. This Pokemon will appear in the wild frequently, so gamers should get plenty of opportunities to catch one. It also will be a Raid boss, though, and not a difficult one to beat. How can trainers counter this Tier 1 Raid boss Pokemon?...
Gyarados is a very popular creature from Gen 1, so it’s no surprise that Pokemon GO fans get excited every time there’s an opportunity to catch the creature. It takes a ton of candy to evolve a Magikarp into a Gyarados the old fashioned way, so catching an already evolved one from a raid is a great opportunity.

While the Abra Community Day event is active in Pokemon GO, it may be a little more difficult than usual to catch Illumise and Volbeat out in the wild.

As predicted, Pokemon GO trainers will be able to secure Hydro Cannon for the final form of Squirtle during the event. This doesn’t come as a big surprise at all, but it is still an exciting move that will make Blastoise a more favorable choice in some metagame matchups. Remember - Trainers need to catch or evolve into Blastoise during the event window to secure the special move. That means players will likely be using a lot of Pinap Berries and evolving at least one Blastoise before the event is over....
It’s true that many Pokemon GO players have yet to hit the level cap. However, those who have stuck with the game since launch may have reached level 40 long ago, and those who haven’t will be able to hit the cap faster than ever before. If one combines the new ways to get XP with the special events that Niantic has been running on a monthly basis and the lucky eggs that give players double XP, it’s safe to say that many Pokemon GO players may soon be joining the level 40 club....
Although most players are probably going to wait until the event kicks off to see what they catch before deciding to use a Sinnoh Stone and collect the new evolution, players who happen to have a high IV Swinub and lots of candy ready can go ahead and reach the new max evolution and pick up a brand new Pokedex entry early according to many reports on The Silph Road....
Some might be wondering why Medicham has such high usage. It only has 121 Attack (sadly, it doesn’t get Pure Power like in the main series games). It also is quite frail, so on paper it wouldn’t seem like Medicham would be too much of a problem. What Medicham does have, though, is great matchups in Great League. The combo of Fighting and Psychic allows it to deal with Galarian Stunfisk, Bastiodon, Venusaur, and several other powerful Pokemon....
The biggest bit of information is the addition of a few Shinies. First up on October 1, shiny Krabby and its evolved form Kingler will be available.
