Get ready for an exciting Pokémon GO event during the upcoming Fashion Week: Taken Over, happening from January 15th to 19th, 2025. This event not only brings a stylish twist but also intensifies your battle against Team Go Rocket. You'll have the opportunity to confront Giovanni and rescue Shadow Palkia, adding a thrilling challenge to your gameplay. Additionally, on January 19th, you can participate in the Ho-Oh’s Shadow Raid Day, where you can encounter and catch Shadow Ho-Oh.
During Fashion Week, Pokémon GO introduces two new Pokémon to the scene: Shroodle and its evolution, Grafaiai. You can hatch Shroodle from 12 km Eggs, adding a fresh element to your collection. Expect to see Team Go Rocket more frequently at PokéStops and in balloons, providing ample opportunities to engage with them and use a Charged TM to help your Shadow Pokémon forget the Frustration move.
The event also features a lineup of new Shadow Pokémon, including Shadow Taillow, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Trubbish, and Bunnelby. Keep your eyes peeled for Shiny versions of these Pokémon, which can be encountered through various Shadow Raids. For the first time, you can utilize Remote Raid Passes to join these raids from anywhere, making it easier than ever to participate.
Engage in the special research task that leads you to a Super Rocket Radar, culminating in a showdown with Giovanni to rescue Shadow Palkia. The event also includes Field Research tasks that offer rewards such as Mysterious Components, Charged TMs, and Fast TMs. Completing a special Collection Challenge will reward you with Stardust and an encounter with Trubbish.
