Pokémon GO Fest 2020

This year’s Pokémon Go Fest is now a worldwide event that isn’t limited to a particular country. We all know it’s difficult to travel right now and the folks at Niantic didn’t want to skip out on Go Fest. So instead, the festivities are coming to you! I’ll update this page as we continue the event but I’d like to get the news out there to people who haven’t heard about it yet. There are 2 days for GO Fest…

Pokémon GO Fest 2019 – Dortmund

I’m not an active player in Pokémon GO (as compared to the first year) but that doesn’t mean I don’t play. When the announcement for Pokémon GO Fest Dortmund appeared, we were ready! There’s a new in game feature where the player can sign up for tickets to attend the special Fest events. We submitted our usernames and were rewarded with tickets! Now these tickets were €25 per person so it wasn’t a free to attend deal. And it was in…

Here’s what we have coming up for the next few months: More community days We’ve got confirmation that the Pokémon for June will be Slakoth. While it’s not too…

Pokémon GO Community day – Cyndaquil

The Netherlands is known for its constant rainy weather which is fine most of the time if you’re a homebody like me. Unfortunately for us, the Cyndaquil event landed on a rainy day. That meant another trek out to the Kasteel Keukenhof for a romp in the rain. The weather was dry enough that some of us went out. A majority of the group stayed at home due to the promise of rain. This time around we split into two…

Pokémon GO Event – Gengar

The Pokémon GO group set out on our exodus for the first time at a relaxed pace. If you recall the previous Pokémon GO events, we’ve always sped around town (safely) and knocked out as many gym raids as we could. Today the pressure was low and no stress. So why Gengar? We assume that it should have been live the previous weekend as a Halloween event. Gengar caught on this day also have a special move – Lick. Gengar…

Pokémon GO Community day – Beldum

It’s that time of the month again! Time to pack our extra battery packs and head down to the Kasteel Keukenhof for some shiny hunting. You know the drill if you’ve been following me for a while. We head down to the park and meet up with our local group. From there we walk 2 hours as we catch virtual monsters on our phones. This community day was like the previous ones. This time around we were after Beldum and…

Pokémon GO quick raid guide: Deoxys

The Basics Deoxys is a mythical Pokémon with four different stat based forms. It’s an alien Pokémon with Psychic being it’s main type. This means it’s weak against Ghost, Dark, and Bug Pokémon and attacks. While it has a high CP value as a Raid Boss, the catch CP is low. So far we only have access to the Normal form and it’s unknown how the others will be made public. Gearing up for Deoxys is super easy! Best counters…

Pokémon GO Community day – Chikorita

Here we go again! It’s that time of the month for another round of Pokémon GO Community. This Saturday was focused around the Generation 2 grass-type starter Pokémon, Chikorita. So yet again we ventured out to the Kasteel Keukenhof for more walking in the park. If you remember my last post about Eevee, then you’re familiar with these event days. What’s interesting is that these events can vary with the results. Sander and I didn’t find any shinies for the first hour. One…

Pokémon GO Event – Moltres

What can I say about these Pokémon GO focus days? They can even be a race against the clock for some people. For us these three hour raids are exciting and a little less stressful each time we do them. This time around, our goal was to find that Shiny Moltres. If you’re a long time reader, you’ll remember our previous encounters with Articuno and Zapdos. Now this time around we headed out to the same around the town route we…
