If you're a Pokémon GO enthusiast, you're in for a treat with the upcoming events, including the exciting Catch Mastery event. Alongside the ongoing Festival of Colors and the Might and Mastery events, the Catch Mastery event is a must-attend for any dedicated player.
Catch Mastery Brings the First Birdie for Pokémon GO!
Mark your calendars for March 16th, as the Catch Mastery event runs from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. local time. This event centers around Archen, the First Bird Pokémon. You'll encounter wild spawns of Omanyte and Kabuto, and there's a chance to catch their Shiny versions.
Archen will also be available as a Field Research reward, with an enhanced Shiny encounter rate. The event offers some fantastic XP bonuses, doubling your XP for Nice Throws or better, and for Curveball Throws.
Additionally, there's Timed Research focused on catching Rock-type Pokémon. If you're up for the challenge, you can complete up to 10 sets of tasks, earning you a total of 40 Archen encounters.
The Mega Absol Raid Day Is Also Happening Soon
Don't miss the Mega Absol Raid Day on March 23rd, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time. Absol will gain a new Charged Attack called Brutal Swing. Once the event kicks off, Absol will permanently have access to this move, which delivers 55 power in Trainer Battles and 65 power in gyms and raids.
From March 22nd at 5:00 p.m. PDT to March 23rd at 8:00 p.m. PDT, the Remote Raid Pass limit will be temporarily increased to 20. You can also obtain up to five additional free Raid Passes by spinning Gym Photo Discs, bringing your daily total to six.
If you haven't already, download Pokémon GO from the Google Play Store to join in on the fun.
