Get out your best red white and blue outfits and prepare for some premium patriotic Pokémon action with the upcoming
Pokémon Go Safari Zone Philadelphia Event! The mobile game's developer, Niantic, has now released details about the May 2020 event and it looks like fans can look forward to creatures bearing U.S.A.'s colors.
The event will take place in Fairmount Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from Friday, May 8th to Sunday May 10th but trainers don't have to wait that long to get excited as tickets go on sale this upcoming Monday, February 24th at 8 am EST and 5 am PST. They will be served on a first come first serve basis, and there will be two options. The General Admission ticket will cost $12 and the Early Access ticket will provide the player with an extra two hours of playtime for $18.
The featured Pokémon during this event will be Unown P, Mr. Mime, Rufflet, Alolan Sandshrew, Bronzor, and Shiny Voltorb. Regular Voltorb is red and white while the shiny version is blue and white so Niantic found this a great time to implement it into the game. Mr. Mime and Unown P are big gets as they are very hard to find as Mr. Mime is only found in Europe and Unown is usually featured for events like Safari Zone.
