After a successful Pokémon GO Fest 2023, Trainers now have an opportunity to add some entries to their Paldean Pokédex with the Pokémon GO event A Paldean Adventure. From September 5, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. to September 10, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. local time, Pokémon originally discovered in the Paldea region will be making their Pokémon GO debuts. For the first time, you can add Sprigatito, Floragato, Meowscarada, Fuecoco, Crocalor, Skeledirge, Quaxly, Quaxwell, Quaquaval, Lechonk, and Oinkologne to your Pokédex. And if you just can’t get enough of the Hog Pokémon, Lechonk, complete a Collection Challenge to earn Stardust and additional encounters with Lechonk!
