Get ready for the Pokémon GO Wild Area 2024 event! The highlight? The highly anticipated Safari Ball makes its debut as the game's seventh Poké Ball. This article reveals all the details about this exciting event and its unique new addition.
What's the Pokémon GO Safari Ball?
Long-time Pokémon fans will recognize Safari Zones from the main series games – special areas for catching rare Pokémon without battling. Niantic is recreating this experience with its Wild Area event.
Pokémon GO hasn't introduced many new Poké Balls. Players regularly use standard Poké Balls, Great Balls, Ultra Balls, Premier Balls, and the elusive Master Ball.
The Wild Area event runs globally from November 23rd to November 24th, 2024, concluding at 6:15 pm local time. Important note: any unused Safari Balls vanish from your inventory after the event ends.
During the event, the Safari Ball becomes the preferred tool for capturing powerful Pokémon. Niantic's decision to introduce this ball during a new event, rather than established Safari Zone or City Safari events, is intriguing.
The Safari Ball's design remains a mystery, although many speculate it will feature the green camouflage familiar from the main series games. Only time will tell! Share your predictions in the comments.
