Pikachu in Summer Gear + Celebi Coming Soon

by Dylan Blight


Developer Niantic has announced in a blog post that for Pokémon GO’s second anniversary you will be able to catch an increased amount of Pikachu and Pichu, as well as special “Summer Style” Pikachu.

Starting from 5 PM AEST tonight (July 6th) until the end of July you will find increased numbers of Pikachu and Pichu in the wild. Also throughout the month, you’ll have a chance to encounter the special “Summer Style” Pikachu.

Trainers will also be able to purchase special Pikachu-related items—including ears—for their in-game avatars with Pikachu Gold Coins.

After much-rumoured speculation in the last fortnight, Niantic has also confirmed that the second-generation Legendary Pokémon, Celebi, will be coming to the game through Special Research sometime in the near future.
