Trainers get ready for Pokémon GO Fest 2022

Additional details for Pokémon GO Fest 2022 have been revealed. The global event is taking place on June 4th and June 5th. Trainers will be able to unlock so much during this event. From rewards to earning bonuses, and you’ll also be able to experience event-exclusive gameplay. Trainers can also complete Special Research. This will allow trainers to learn more about the Mythical Pokémon Shaymin. This Pokémon is known as the Gratitude Pokémon. ​
