Pokémon Go introduces Super Incubators in Equinox event


After the madness of Pokémon Go's summer Legendary raiding, the app is bringing back its smaller scale monthly events.

First up is Equinox, to celebrate the arrival of autumn. It will run from 9pm UK time on Friday 22nd September until 9pm UK time on Monday 2nd October.

Most notable about the event is its introduction of Super Incubators, a new item which will hatch Pokémon eggs 1.5x faster than normal. These will, it sounds like, only be available in paid-for boxes via the in-game shop.

When the event begins, players will have the chance of picking up a special 2km egg variant with rare Pokémon such as Chansey, Mareep and Larvitar in - perfect for anyone who still needs one, or who wants to evolve a Blissey/Ampharos/Tyranitar.

Everyone will get double Stardust for catching Pokémon and hatching eggs (so make sure you complete your daily bonus streak).

Finally, any new Pokémon registered to your 'dex during the event will nab you triple the usual XP. Everyone should get at least one of these, when the current Legendary dog trio rotate regions - Europe currently is hosting Entei raids, but will next get either Suicune or Raikou.

Pokemon GO's Next Two Legendaries Are Moltres And Zapdos

The Pokemon GO Fest may have been a disaster, but if there was one bright spot to be found in the weekend's events, it was the unlocking of a couple of Legendary Pokemon for folks to catch. Over the next couple of weeks, there'll be two more. Niantic has announced that Moltres will be available between July 31-August 7, and Zapdos will be available between August 8-14. Articuno, meanwhile, will disappear on July 31. (Note: these dates are US time.) As a reminder, here's what you need to do in order to catch a Legendary: As Trainers around the world go out and explore their neighbourhoods in search of Pokemon and Raid Battles, they can keep an eye out for unique Legendary Eggs appearing at Gyms. If Trainers and their team are able to successfully defeat a Legendary Raid Boss, they will have the opportunity to catch a Legendary Pokemon of their own! While Legendary Pokemon will help them take on the toughest Raid Bosses and Gym Battles, they're not willing to le

Pokemon GO fans are suing Niantic for disastrous Pokemon GO Fest in Chicago

Some annoyed Pokemon GO Fest attendees have decided to sue Niantic due to technical issues faced during the day causing the event to not live up to "what was promised". As Polygon reports, a class-action lawsuit of between 20 and 30 people is being prepared by attendees who travelled great distances to attend the event. This includes some attendees who travelled from Japan to attend. Niantic is already offering full refunds on tickets, along with $100 worth of in-game PokeCoins, and a free Legendary Pokemon that was released at the event. The attendees are asking for further refunds for their travel expenses. Lawsuit, I choose you! Players also continued to enjoy the game after the event in smaller groups, and were still able to catch the Legendary Pokemon. Niantic CEO John Hanke said that over 7.7 million Pokemon were caught in the surrounding area once the event had officially closed. Niantic won't be hugely hurt if it needs to pay up, of course.
