Get ready for the Bug Out event in Pokémon Go, returning from March 26th to 30th! This event introduces Sizzlipede and its evolution, Centiskorch, alongside a flurry of Bug-type Pokémon. Expect exciting wild encounters, raids, bonuses, and fresh challenges.
Lure Modules are key this time around. Not only will they attract Sizzlipede, but catching enough Pokémon with a single Lure Module will significantly boost the Pokémon appearing at that PokéStop. Trainers will also enjoy 2x XP and extra Candy for Nice Throws or better, with increased Candy XL chances for those level 31 and above. Shiny hunters, rejoice! Your chances of finding Shiny Wurmple and Shiny Venipede are boosted.
Expect a surge of Bug-type Pokémon in the wild, including Caterpie, Weedle, Wurmple, Nincada, Venipede, Dwebble, Joltik, Grubbin, Dewpider, Nymble, and even a chance to encounter Cutiefly.
Raids will feature Sizzlipede in one-star raids alongside Scyther and Nincada, while Beedrill, Scizor, and Kleavor dominate three-star raids. Complete event-themed Field Research tasks for Mega Energy, Scatterbug Candy, and encounters with event Pokémon.
Don't miss the free Timed Research with encounters featuring Shedinja, Sizzlipede, Kleavor, and more, plus a Lure Module. For even more rewards, a paid Timed Research option (approximately $2 or local equivalent) offers Heracross, Sizzlipede, and Kleavor encounters, two Premium Battle Passes, and an additional Lure Module.
New Collection Challenges reward Stardust, XP, and Pokémon encounters, while PokéStop Showcases highlight event Pokémon. And finally, grab the new Sizzlipede Boots and Scolipede Jacket from the in-game shop!
