Pokémon GO has just shared the full details for the upcoming Enchanted Hollow event. This latest offering is part of Niantic’s effort to keep the game fun. In particular, the new event will add two new characters. There are also many things to do in the game.
New Pokémon GO Debuts
According to Niantic, the event brings in two new Pokémon in the popular title— Tarountula and Spidops. It will be their first appearance in the AR mobile game. The former is a String Ball Pokémon, while the latter is a Trap Pokémon. Players can also use 50 Tarountula Candy to change Tarountula into Spidops. Likewise, the addition of these two gives trainers new entries for their Pokédex.
Wild and Mossy Lure Encounters
Based on the official announcement, all players can get the chance to see event-themed Pokémon in the wild. The possible finds include Nickit, Paras, Stantler, and even Tarountula.
In the same way, the creators improve gameplay by boosting Mossy Lure encounters. Many characters will show up more often in Mossy Lure Modules. Specifically, these are Cottonee, Karrablast, Paras, Petilil, Shelmet, Stantler, and Tarountula.
For both Wild and Mossy Lure encounters, every player has the chance to see a shiny one.
