"Pokémon Go Revives Bug Out Event: Sizzlipede Debuts"
Get ready, trainers! The Bug Out event is making its return to Pokémon Go, and it's buzzing with excitement from March 26th to 30th. This event introduces the debut of Sizzlipede and its evolution, Centiskorch, alongside a host of Bug-type Pokémon adventures, raids, bonuses, and new challenges that'll keep you engaged and on the hunt.
Lure Modules are your best friends during the Bug Out event. Not only will they draw Sizzlipede to your location, but if you and other trainers catch enough Pokémon at a single lured PokéStop, you'll see a surge in Pokémon appearances. It's a fantastic way to maximize your encounters and make the most of your time out in the field.
You'll also enjoy double XP and extra Candy for every Nice Throw or better, with an increased chance of receiving Candy XL for trainers level 31 and above. Shiny hunters, rejoice! Your chances of encountering Shiny Wurmple and Shiny Venipede are significantly boosted during the event.
Expect to see a variety of Bug-types swarming the wild, including favorites like Caterpie, Weedle, Wurmple, Nincada, Venipede, Dwebble, Joltik, Grubbin, Dewpider, and Nymble. Keep an eye out for the elusive Cutiefly, which might just make an appearance if luck is on your side.
In one-star raids, you'll face off against Sizzlipede, Scyther, and Nincada, while Beedrill, Scizor, and Kleavor will challenge you in three-star raids. Completing event-themed Field Research tasks will earn you Mega Energy, Scatterbug Candy, and encounters with various event Pokémon.
Don't miss out on the free Timed Research, which offers encounters with Shedinja, Sizzlipede, Kleavor, and more, along with a Lure Module to help with your adventures. If you're looking for additional rewards, the Paid Timed Research option, priced at $2 or the local equivalent, includes encounters with Heracross, Sizzlipede, and Kleavor, as well as two Premium Battle Passes and an extra Lure Module.
New Collection Challenges await, rewarding you with Stardust, XP, and Pokémon encounters, while PokéStop Showcases will spotlight event-themed Pokémon. Make sure to check out the in-game shop for the new Sizzlipede Boots and Scolipede Jacket to add some flair to your trainer look.
