The holiday excitement keeps on coming! Just as Pokémon GO’s Holiday Part 1 event ends, the Holiday Part 2 event begins. From Sunday, December 22, at 10:00 a.m. to Friday, December 27, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. local time, you’ll be able to enjoy even more seasonal festivities, including the arrival of two new costumed Pokémon: Wooloo wearing holiday attire and Dubwool wearing holiday attire. You can use 50 Wooloo Candy to evolve the costumed Wooloo into Dubwool. And to top it off, lucky Trainers might even encounter a Shiny Wooloo wearing holiday attire.
There will be Raid Battles, wild Pokémon encounters, Incense-focused fun, and more.
