Pokémon GO enthusiasts, get ready for the Sweet Discoveries event, where you'll have the chance to encounter the adorable Applin for the very first time. This event is a must-attend for anyone keen on expanding their Pokémon collection or hunting for those elusive shiny variants. Let's dive into all the juicy details of this exciting event.
When Is Applin Debuting in Pokémon GO?
Mark your calendars because the Sweet Discoveries event kicks off on April 24th at 10:00 a.m. and continues through to April 29th at 8:00 p.m. This is when Applin, the charming Grass and Dragon-type Pokémon from the Galar region, will make its grand entrance into Pokémon GO.
To evolve Applin into Flapple, you'll need 200 Applin Candies and 20 Tart Apples. If you're aiming for Appletun, the same amount of candies along with 20 Sweet Apples will do the trick. For those looking to evolve Applin into Dipplin and ultimately into Hydrapple, its final form, you'll need to gather the necessary resources.
Speaking of Apples, these are crucial for Applin's evolution. You'll find them scattered in the wild. Tapping on them might reward you with a Tart Apple, a Sweet Apple, or even Applin itself. To increase your chances of encountering these Apples, consider using Mossy Lure Modules.
Did You Know?
Applin is a unique Pokémon that spends its entire life inside an apple, cleverly disguising itself from bird Pokémon, its natural predators. It's not just a strategic survivor; Applin is also one of the cutest Pokémon in the entire Pokémon GO lineup.
During the Sweet Discoveries event, you can also snag some new avatar items from the in-game shop, including the Applin Headband and Applin Apron. As for event bonuses, you'll enjoy double Candy for every Pokémon you catch during this period.
Keep your eyes peeled for increased chances of encountering Shiny Delibird and Shiny Skwovet in the wild. Additionally, there's a higher probability of hatching Shiny Delibird, Shiny Cherubi, and Shiny Skwovet from 7 km Eggs.
Another sweet addition to the event is the increased berry drops from catching Delibird or Skwovet. So, if you haven't yet, download Pokémon GO from the Google Play Store and get ready to indulge in these Sweet Discoveries.
