Get ready to swing into action because Tinkatink and its evolutions are making their grand entrance in Pokémon GO! For the very first time, Tinkatink, Tinkatuff, and Tinkaton will be joining the game during a special event running from April 16th to April 22nd. These hammer-wielding Pokémon bring more than just charm—they’re known for launching rocks at Corviknight. To evolve your Tinkatink into Tinkaton, you’ll need to gather approximately 125 candies over the course of the event.
But that’s not all—this event is packed with surprises. Floragato will be sporting a stylish hat adorned with Liko’s pin, appearing in the wild, hatching from Eggs, and even starring in Raids. Keep your eyes peeled for a rare Shiny encounter too. Other fan favorites like Pikachu in Cap’s hat, Charcadet, Hatenna, and Elekid will also make appearances, along with the chance to encounter Fuecoco, Sprigatito, Quaxly, and Pawmi in the wild.
Don’t forget to snap plenty of photos—Horizons characters and their Pokémon might just photobomb your shots. On the battling front, Pikachu in Cap’s hat brings a powerful special move, Volt Tackle, while Raids will feature Charizard, Metagross, Alolan Muk, and Floragato. Plus, Team GO Rocket Balloons will be more frequent, and you’ll earn double Stardust and higher Shiny rates.
Field Research and Timed Research quests will offer exclusive rewards, including an avatar pose. If you’re looking to dive deeper into the festivities, you can purchase the Celebration Event Ultra Ticket Box from the Pokémon GO Web Store for $4.99 to unlock additional bonuses.
So grab your Poké Balls and get ready to explore, battle, and collect during this exciting event. Happy hunting!
