Although some of these Pokemon are not very exciting, there are at least a few meta-relevant creatures here that should help make the grind well worth it for trainers.
Rattata
Mankey
Ponyta
Ekans
Electabuzz
Dratini
Mareep
Miltank
Torchic
Poochyena
Spoink
Buneary
Featured Shiny
Spoink
That covers all of the highlights. Remember to get out and hunting within the next few days if you want to catch shiny Spoink or take advantage of any of the other event bonuses. This event wraps up on February 13 and it seems very likely that Niantic will transition right into a smaller Valentine’s Day event (if previous years are a reliable indication).
Be sure to check back in the coming days for more Pokemon GO news, updates, and strategy guides. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
Pokemon GO is currently available in select regions on Android and iOS devices.
