Mega Gardevoir and Shiny Tapu Lele Star in Pokémon Go’s Valentine’s Day Extravaganza

Pokémon Go Valentine’s Day Event Heats Up

Pokémon Go is set to celebrate Valentine’s Day with exciting new features. Players can look forward to Mega Gardevoir’s debut in the game. There’s a lot to love about this year’s event, including Pokémon with pink colors, flowers, and themes of love. Expect to see Nidoran, Volbeat, Illumise, Alomomola, and more. Highlights include the first appearance of Shiny Frillish, Shiny Tapu Lele, and the chance to switch Furfrou to Heart Trim Furfrou from Feb. 8 to 14.

Rare Pokémon Sightings

The event also brings Pokémon like Flabébé outside their usual areas. Here’s where you can find them:
– Red Flower Flabébé: Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
– Blue Flower Flabébé: Asia-Pacific.
– Yellow Flower Flabébé: The Americas.
– White and Orange Flower Flabébé: Everywhere during the event.

Mega Gardevoir enters Pokémon Go, offering a special treat for players. Catching or evolving Kirlia into Gallade or Gardevoir during the event gives them a special move, Synchronoise.

Exciting Challenges and Outfits

There’s more! A Timed Research: Lovely Wishes quest offers bonus XP, extra Candy, or longer Daily Adventure Incense. Players can also grab Frillish themed avatar outfits.
