Get ready for an electrifying Pokémon GO experience during the upcoming Fashion Week: Taken Over event, running from January 15th to January 19th. This event promises thrilling encounters with Team Go Rocket, as they infiltrate PokéStops and balloons, offering you multiple chances to challenge Giovanni and rescue the formidable Shadow Palkia. Not only that, but you'll also have the opportunity to capture Shadow Ho-Oh during the Shadow Raid Day event on January 19th.
Fashion Week also marks the debut of Shroodle and its evolution, Grafaiai. You can hatch Shroodle from 12 km Eggs, adding these new Pokémon to your collection. With Team Go Rocket appearing more frequently, you'll have plenty of opportunities to use Charged TMs to help your Shadow Pokémon forget the Frustration move, enhancing their combat abilities.
The event introduces new Shadow Pokémon to the mix, including Shadow Taillow, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, Trubbish, and Bunnelby. Some of these might even be Shiny, adding an extra layer of excitement to your rescues. These Shadow Pokémon can be challenged through various Shadow Raids, and for the first time, you can use Remote Raid Passes to participate in these raids from anywhere.
Engage in special research tasks that will lead you to a Super Rocket Radar, setting the stage for an epic showdown with Giovanni to save Shadow Palkia. The event also includes Field Research tasks, rewarding you with Mysterious Components, Charged TMs, and Fast TMs. Completing the special Collection Challenge will earn you Stardust and an encounter with Trubbish.
