Pokémon Go Event Brings New Shiny Encounters

Author : Gabriel Feb 26,2025

February might be frosty, but Pokémon Go is heating things up with its exciting new event: Scattered to the Wind! This event brings boosted rewards, research tasks, and increased shiny encounter rates.

This event offers double XP for PokéStop spins, and a quintuple XP bonus for your first spin each day. You can also open up to 40 Gifts daily (or 60 with the Eggs-pedition Access: February ticket). Plus, there's a higher chance of encountering a Shiny Pidgey.

But the real highlight? Sending postcards from around the globe significantly boosts your chances of encountering shiny Scatterbug, Spewpa, and Vivillon! The event also features new Field Research tasks, a paid Timed Research, and more!

A Focus on Global Connection

Pokémon Go cleverly incentivizes players to explore the real world with enticing rewards. While new Pokémon are always appreciated, the event's emphasis on international postcard collecting presents a unique aspect, connecting players across geographical boundaries. It's an interesting approach, fostering a sense of community despite the often anonymous nature of postcard exchanges.

Don't miss out! This limited-time event runs from February 18th to 20th. Make the most of the increased shiny rates and other rewards before it ends. And for extra help, check out our list of Pokémon Go promo codes!
