Event guide
What to Prioritize
During the Twilight Trails season, your main targets should be Maschiff and Mabosstiff for their unique value in battles, especially in Great League. They’re not just featured spawns; they can hold their ground with decent bulk and movesets. Rhyhorn and Sneasel are also notable, with Sneasel being a solid option for PvP, while Rhyhorn can help fill out your team for raids. Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf are legendary spawns that can be valuable for collectors and might have niche uses in specific metas. Keep your eyes peeled for any shiny variants of these Pokémon since there are six potential shiny encounters available this season.
Bonuses Worth Using
The bonuses tied to the GO Pass are compelling, particularly if you’re a trainer at level 31 or above. At Rank 1, you’ll get an extra Candy XL when trading, which can be pivotal for powering up Pokémon. Reaching Rank 25 enhances your ability to open and receive Gifts, a great way to boost your Stardust and friendship levels. For those invested in hatching Eggs, the 2× Daily Adventure Incense duration at Rank 50 can maximize your chances of encountering rarer Pokémon. Lastly, the increased XP and Stardust from hatching Eggs at Rank 75 can't be overlooked, especially for trainers looking to level up quickly.
Is It Worth Your Time?
Engaging with the Twilight Trails season can be worthwhile, especially if you’re keen on collecting and trading. The highlighted Pokémon like Maschiff and Mabosstiff offer value in battles, while the bonuses on the GO Pass provide tangible benefits. If you’re grinding for XP, Stardust, or Candy to power up your Pokémon, the effort can pay off. However, if you’re not interested in the featured Pokémon or the bonuses don’t align with your goals, it might be a good time to take a break or focus on other areas of the game. Overall, the event has enough to keep dedicated trainers engaged, but it ultimately depends on your individual priorities in Pokémon GO.
