Here is everything we know about Pokémon GO blog ad:

  • Date + Time: Tuesday, March 9, 2021, at 10:00 am to Sunday, March 14, 2021, at 8:00 pm local time. Basically, we will have two normal game days after Fletchling Community Day, before the start.
  • Shiny Nosepass will be released, and it will not be a situation like Rufflet, where you will have to invade to find one. Niantic confirms that Nosepass, “will appear in greater numbers to help you sniff out clues alongside a variety of Ground-, Rock- and Steel-type Pokémon.”
  • Featured Pokémon include: Diglett, Geodude, Magnemite, Nosepass, Aron, Baltoy, Roggenrola, Drilbur and more.
  • Like the previous Kanto event, Incense will have the theme of the event and will attract some Pokémon different from those that appear in nature, although there is some overlap. Here is the current list of species that will be attracted by the incense: Alolan Diglett, Alolan Geodude, Magnemite, Nosepass, Aron, Lairon, Beldum, Roggenrola, Drilbur and more.
  • Pokémon rising from 5 km. Eggs: Magnemite, Nosepass, Aron, Baltoy, Beldum and Drilbur. There is nothing very crazy here, so this looks like an event that will be much more focused on hunting in the jungle and running Incense instead of an egg incubation.
  • The full attack rotation includes:
    • Layer one: Alolan Diglett, Nosepass, Roggenrola, Drilbur, Ferroseed and Klink.
    • Layer three: Alolan Graveler, Magneton, Skarmory and Metang.
  • There will be a timed survey during the event that we currently know will reward meetings with Nosepass.

As more details arrive, Bleeding Cool readers can wait for coverage detailing the Survey’s tasks and rewards, as well as tips on which raids are worth passing and which are worthy of your raid pass.
