Starting the 8th of June to the 13th, Pokemon Go will host a Slowpoke-themed festival to launch the new “Season of Discovery”. A Very Slow Discovery presents Galarian Slowpoke, Galarian Slowbro, along with classic Slowbro’s Mega-Evolved type!
Galarian Slowpoke will be available for the first time in Pokemon Go during this occasion. This version of Slowpoke is purely Psychic, and catching Poison-type Pokemon (30x) while it’s placed as your Buddy is required to evolve it into Galarian Slowbro.

Niantic will also provide a handful of event-only Field Research activities, including a fresh Collection Challenge. You’ll get a Slowpoke Forever jersey for your character, as well as Ultra Balls (30x) and XP (3,000x) if you pass the latter.
In addition to the Slowpoke-themed skins, Niantic will offer a freebie event package in Pokemon Go’s in-game store. The official Pokémon Go blog has more information about the occasion. So make sure to check it out!
Meanwhile, this Sunday, June 6th, is June Community Day. Gible is the showcased Pokemon, and it can discover the Ground-type skill – Earth Power if you evolve it into its complete version, Garchomp, during the occasion or up to 2 hours later.
Niantic has also released a limited research mission line that will allow players to capture Galarian Ponyta once more.
