Team Go Rocket & Ho-Oh Shadow Raid Return for Fashion Week

Get ready for Pokémon GO's Fashion Week: Taken Over, running from January 15th to 19th! This stylish event brings a wave of exciting challenges and rewards. Rescue Shadow Palkia by battling Team GO Rocket leader Giovanni. Shadow Ho-Oh also awaits in a special Shadow Raid Day on January 19th.

Two new Pokémon debut: Shroodle and its evolution, Grafaiai, hatching from 12 km Eggs. Team GO Rocket will be more prevalent at PokéStops and in balloons, offering increased chances to use Charged TMs to remove Frustration from your Shadow Pokémon.

New Shadow Pokémon join the fray: Shadow Taillow, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Trubbish, and Bunnelby—some may even be Shiny! For the first time, you can use Remote Raid Passes to participate in these Shadow Raids, regardless of location.

A special research task will grant you a Super Rocket Radar, leading to your showdown with Giovanni and the rescue of Shadow Palkia. Field Research tasks offer rewards like Mysterious Components, Charged TMs, and Fast TMs. Completing a special Collection Challenge earns you Stardust and a Trubbish encounter.
