While we are used to Niantic’s insane event pacing, it is always a good thing when there is excitement from week to week. The events lately have been bringing a lot of value to Trainers by offering a variety of things to do. Raid hours have been drawing good crowds for weeks and the events have been motivating people to get outside.

The Wild Area has been detailed and this looks to be a new staple ingredient in Niantic’s IRL event roster. With the theme of focusing on specific Pokémon types, if opens the door for recurring events with rotating types. A two day global event also makes this exciting for Trainers that don’t plan on attending the in person event. Plenty to do, new Pokémon, new Shinies, new excitement.

Zamazenta is replacing its partner Zacian in 5 Star Raids this week. Paired with Falinks Max Battles, there are plenty of reasons to get outside with a group to play. With the difficulty that Falinks is bringing, some Trainers are surprised and turned off. It opens up a discussion of how this game calls for in person group play as an integral part of a successful experience.

Giovanni is also heading back, this time with Shadow Heatran. The ability to TM away Frustration comes at a good time as things are still being shaken out from the PvE updates. Paired with the next PokéCoin Bounty and Mega Mawile Raid Day, this October is shaping up to be packed, and we don’t even know what the Halloween Event will bring us!
