Fall is right around the corner and, although summer gets a lot of the attention, the spooky season is also a pretty popular time for Pokemon GO events. Although the Halloween festivities obviously won’t make place until October, late summer and early fall are still off to an interesting start with a busy calendar of events in the coming month.
The full September calendar is now live and there is still a bit of mystery surrounding the season long Special Research, a lot of details about the events arriving in Pokemon GO throughout the coming month are now available. There will obviously be the usual Community Day, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Trainers have some pretty unique offerings to explore this September including the special Seaon of Mischief kick off events, the Psychic Spectacular, and the return of Fashion Week. It also sounds like there's going to be another big Team GO Rocket event on the horizon. Trainers who are ready for to start preparing for September 2021 can check out all of the confirmed events and spotlight hours right here...
September Community Day
Join us on Sunday, September 19, 2021, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time for a Community Day event featuring Oshawott, the Sea Otter Pokémon! Oshawott will be appearing more frequently in the wild and near PokéStops with Rainy Lure Modules. Evolve Dewott (Oshawott’s Evolution) during the event or up to two hours afterward to get a Samurott that knows the Charged Attack Hydro Cannon. Samurott will also be able to learn its signature attack, Razor Shell, via Charged TM during and after this event.
Season of Mischief
As the Season of Discovery ends, the story of Pokémon GO continues with mischief! Hoopa, the Mischief Pokémon, will be able to be caught for the first time ever in Pokémon GO!
To celebrate Hoopa’s arrival, a one-day event will take place on Sunday, September 5, 2021, featuring various strange phenomena happening all around the world—maybe these events have something to do with Hoopa?
There will also be a season-long Special Research story available, with parts of the story only being unlocked during certain events throughout the season.
Psychic Spectacular
This event featuring Psychic-type Pokémon returns from Wednesday, September 8, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. to Monday, September 13, 2021, at 8:00 p.m. local time! Some familiar faces will be returning, and another Pokémon will be making its Pokémon GO debut. Which will it be? Here’s a hint: be careful of revolving too much of your life around one thing—you might find that it could overturn at a moment’s notice!
Fashion Week
Stylishly dressed Pokémon will be making their debuts, along with a fluffy and fashionable friend! Strut your stuff with these fashionable Pokémon, new avatar items, and more during Fashion Week, taking place from Tuesday, September 21, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. to Tuesday, September 28, 2021, at 8:00 p.m. local time.
Team GO Rocket’s Boss seems to be missing...
Where has Giovanni gone? We hope he’s not planning something in the shadows! Be sure to keep an eye out for updates throughout the season. Super Rocket Radars won’t be able to track down Giovanni during this time, so no need to keep them equipped.
That should be just about everything players know about the upcoming month, but we should learn more about what other events will be arriving during the upcoming Season of Mischief soon. Be sure to check back in the near future for more Pokemon GO strategy guides, news, and updates. Until then, good luck out there, trainers!
Pokemon GO is available on Android and iOS.
