Pokemon Go water festival returns for some summer celebration
All the magikarp
The Water Festival is back in Pokemon Go, and until June 21 you have increased chances of catching water-type Pokemon in the wild. You'll also be able to earn three times the amount of stardust for netting them.
There's also a chance to encounter the rare Shiny Shellder for the first time, and during the event, 2 km eggs will hatch Pokemon such as Totodile, Mudkip, and Corphish, with double candy and stardust for each.
Last but not least, raid battles will feature water-type Pokemon during the event, including the Legendary Pokemon Kyogre. If you challenge Kyogre during the event and defeat it, you'll have a chance to encounter its shiny form.
So if you're looking for a way to get outside or get some exercise this summer, here's your chance to improve your Pokemon collection while you do. Happy hunting!
