Lunar New Year event: January 29 – February 2
The Lunar New Year 2025 event, running until February 2 at 08:00 PM local time, is the perfect way to celebrate the Chinese New Year within *Pokémon GO*.

This event not only boosts the spawn rates of these Pokémon but also offers enticing bonuses such as an increased chance of obtaining Lucky Pokémon in trades, becoming Lucky Friends, and unlocking daily Field Research tasks that reward free PokéCoins. Additionally, the 2KM Egg pool during the event includes Makuhita, Nosepass, Meditite, Duskull, and Skorupi, all of which can be Shiny.
Legendary Flight Dynamax Moltres Event: February 3 – 9
