Fighting-type Pokemon featured in new Pokemon GO event

Posted on May 1, 2018 by (@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News

Pokemon GO is kicking off a new event today. Starting at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET, Fighting-type Pokemon are more likely to appear.

Today’s event will also entail some bonuses at Gyms and more. We have the full lowdown from Niantic below.

It’s time to test the strength of your Pokémon during a special battle event! Fighting-type Pokémon, such as Machop and Makuhita, will appear more frequently in the wild starting May 1 at 1:00 p.m. PDT.

But what’s a battle celebration without some competition at your nearby Gym? Until May 14, you’ll receive 2× bonus XP for Gym Battles and Raid Battles. Plus, Raid Battles will also award a guaranteed 3,000 Stardust for participating—and at least one Rare Candy if you win!

Several actions at Gyms will yield bonuses, including a 2× Badge multiplier, so you can receive even more benefits at a Gym you visit frequently. Just stopping by? Spinning the Photo Disc at Gyms will also yield more items!
