The event often hosts several Pok&eacute;mon spawning more frequently during the event, including their Shiny forms, and some will even sport trending clothing and accessibility, increasing their rarity.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mcetoc_1gvmbl02v3\">How To Prepare For The Pok&eacute;mon GO Fest?<\/h2>\n<p>If you attend a Pok&eacute;mon GO Fest in person, you can best prepare yourself for the day&#8217;s activities by planning.

If there are community meet-ups before the start of the Pok&eacute;mon GO Fest, this would be the best opportunity to connect with fellow Trainers who can help you progress with various tasks and make the experience more engaging and fun.<\/p>\n<p>In-game, you&#8217;ll want to ensure you have enough Pok&eacute; Balls in your Bag or Inventory, as you&#8217;ll encounter plenty of Pok&eacute;mon during the event. Likewise, you can receive more Pok&eacute; Balls when spinning the Photo Discs at Pok&eacute;Stops or Gyms, opening Gifts, completing Field or Special Research tasks, and activating the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/pokemon-go\/use-daily-adventure-incense-pokemon-go\">Daily Adventure Incense<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Check that you have enough Berries on hand, as they&#8217;ll make catching wild Pok&eacute;mon much more straightforward and increase your chances of receiving more Candy for evolving them.

Whilst she has seen improvements at farming in Stardew Valley (much thanks to Palia), Ashleigh more than makes up for it by being a decent Blastoise trainer in Pokemon GO. While her gaming adventures take her to unique locations, she actively enjoys following trending stories within the Entertainment industry, just don't ask why her Letterboxd hasn't seen an entry in a while. If you manage to catch Ash in between playing games and watching Marvel or Star Wars shows, you can forward any gaming and entertainment news, tips, and tricks to her via email or on social media.","url":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/author\/ashleigh-klein"}]}},"modified_by":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12188"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46525"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46525\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
