The hit mobile title Pokemon GO is getting ready to kick off a brand new event called Let's Go during the Rising Heroes season and alonside a number of bonuses, the game is finally making these regional exclusives available globally. After adopting a seasonal model, Pokemon GO has continued to evolve and add new content on a semi-regular basis, including new limited time events as well as bringing new Pokemon into the game through fun ways like the recent announcement that all 18 Vivillon regional patterns could be collected. Starting next week on March 21, Pokemon GO is going to be kicking off it's latest limited time event called Let's GO. The event places a spotlight on Meltan and Ditto, as the latter has taken on new diguises to potentially hide from players including forms like Diglett, Grimer, Snubbull, Starly, and more. Players should continue to check and capture these Pokemon as not only could they be a Ditto in disguise, but there's a chance they could be shiny as well. Meltan also has a chance to be shiny, though GO players will need to use the Mystery Box, which is obtained by sending a Pokemon from Pokemon GO to Pokemon Home, or the Let's Go titles on the Nintendo Switch. However, for many Pokemon GO collectors looking to fill out their PokeDex, the major appeal of this Let's GO event is the fact that Pansage, Pansear, and Panpour are finally being made available globally. Traditionally set to be regional exclusives, with Pansage locked to Asia Pacific, Pansear to Africa, Europe, and the MIddle East, while Panpour in The Americas, this will be a great time for fans to finally fill out their collection as each can be found as a wild encounter or by completing Field Research tasks.
However, that's not all during the Let's GO event. Raids bring back Lugia, Incarnate Forme Thundurus, Mega Venusaur, and Mega Alakazam are all making their return, and Pokemon GO players can take part in a new collection challenge which leads to a Meltan encounter and 5,000XP. For those who want a little more, they can purchase a Season 10 Ticketed Timed Research called Willow's Wardrobe, which unlocks a new costume and an encounter with Melmetal that knows the charged attack called Double Iron Bash.
Team GO Rocket has been causing a lot of trouble for players as of late and the Let's GO event presents another opportunity to take them on as well as their leader, Giovanni. Players will want to pick up a Rocket Radar and Super Rocket Radar in order to take on Giovanni as during this take over, fans who take him down have a shot to capture a rare Shadow Regice.
Pokemon GO is available now on Android and iOS.
