The big weekend is here forDetective Pikachu, which means that tons of Pokemon fans will be heading to the movies to see if this film can really break the video game movie curse. In addition to enjoying the new film,Pokemon GOplayers also have an exciting tie-in event to participate in for a few more days.
ThePokemon GODetective Pikachucrossover event is already underway and players have a handful of bonuses, tasks, and special spawns to keep in mind while playing throughout the event. Since there’s so much to keep track of, some players may prefer to have all of the relevant information gathered into one convenient location.
Luckily, that’s exactly what we have here. The team atPokemon GO Hubput together a handy visual guide to the event, so that players can take full advantage of all of the bonuses and opportunities before they expire next week.
As the guide points out, players have through May 17 to take advantage of the bonuses and special spawns. Completionists will want to make sure that theycollect a detective hat Pikachu, but that’s not the only exciting opportunity. Shiny hunters will also want to take advantage of the increased spawn rates to snaga shiny Aipombefore they become a lot more rare.
Collecting shiny Pokemon doesn’t give the trainer any kind of advantage in battle, but it is still a fun additional challenge to add into the game. Shiny Pokemon are perfect for leaving in Gyms to show off to the rest of the community.
Be sure to check back in the coming days for morePokemon GOnews, updates, and strategy guides.
