Pokémon Horizons: The Series Celebration Event is an upcoming Pokémon GO event with 10 featured Pokémon and 20 raid bosses. Below is a quick, honest breakdown of what to prioritise and how to get the most out of it.
What to prioritise
Start with Charizard wearing Friede's goggles: it's ranked #9 in Ultra League PvP, which makes it the standout catch here. Also worth your attention: Charmander wearing Friede's goggles (Debut Pokemon) and Charmeleon wearing Friede's goggles (Debut Pokemon). Keep an eye out for Charizard wearing Friede's goggles, making its Pokémon GO debut during this event.
Bonuses worth using
This event runs 4 bonuses, including Increased chance to encounter Kecleon at PokéStopsReach Major Milestones on your event GO Pass to unlock the following bonuses., 2× Candy for catching PokémonGO Pass Deluxe: 3× Candy for catching Pokémon and Regular Lure Modules will last for one hour and may attract the featured Pokémon. To squeeze the most out of them, pop a Star Piece to multiply the stardust, run Pinap Berries on your catches to bank extra candy and burn Incense and Lures during the window to make the most of the boosted spawns.
Shiny hunting
With 13 shiny forms in the pool, this is a solid shiny-hunting opportunity — increased spawns mean more checks per hour, so prioritise volume and don't skip the ones you already have.
Is it worth your time?
Worth a look. There are meta-relevant Pokémon on offer, so it's worth dropping in to grab the priority targets even if you don't play the whole thing. Set a reminder so you don't miss the start.
