Niantic has been making a lot of announcements regarding their popular augmented reality mobile game
Pokémon Go now that the new year is right around the corner. These include many things, but two of the most exciting are the return of the Adventure Sync Hatchathon and the addition of more new Generation V creatures from the Unova Region.
We don't know yet which creatures from
Pokémon Black and
White will be joining Drillbur, Klink, Cubchoo, and the rest of their Generation V pals yet, but the mere idea of having new creatures obtainable for trainers to add to the pages of their dex is one that is sure to make players happy.
The beloved Adventure Sync Hatchathon event saw a positive reception before and as such trainers will see its return in January. Walking a specific distance in will earn coveted rewards such as Rare Candies, extra Stardust, and even Unova stones which haven't proven to be the easiest item to locate in the mobile game as of yet. With the addition of more creatures from the Unova region coming up its likely that even more of these will require the Unova stone in order to evolve, making this event one that will serve very useful to fans.
Players will have the opportunity to encounter certain pocket monsters sporting party hats in the wild and from the hatching eggs which will help celebrate the new year. The Adventure Sync Hatchathon returns on January 2nd, 2020 at 1pm PST and will run for two weeks until January 16th, 2020 at 1pm PST.
