Spring is going to be a very busy season in Pokemon GO as the Season of Legends continues and more events continue rolling out. In addition to the currently running Searching for Legends event, the excitement is going to continue in just a few days when the first ever Electric-type Pokemon themed event kicks off.
The Charge Up Pokemon GO event will be similar to the other -type themed events in the past like Psychic Spectacular and Bug Out and should offer trainers a chance to catch a ton of Electric-type Pokemon and load up on Candy throughout the event. For players who haven't maxed out their Electric-type badge quite yet, this should be a perfect opportunity.
Trainers still have almost a week before the Charge Up event kicks off, so there's lots of time to finish their current Searching or Legends tasks and make space in their inventory for all of the Electric-types they will be tracking down when March 16 arrives. Fans who want a bit of a sneak peek can get a look at the full list of bonuses and features right now...
