As for the live events like Paris Go Fest, Hawlucha is the main regional Pok\u00e9mon spawning around the venue, with a few Unova Pok\u00e9mon that were only available in Eggs or through the Tour Pass, like Sandile seeming to get a wild spawn at these events for trainers who missed out on getting it, or its Shiny form, a few weeks ago.<\/p>

Osaka will see Drampa, while New Jersey players get to catch Bombirdier in the wild. These are usually raid exclusives, making them a treat for anyone lucky enough to get a Shiny form.<\/p>

On hosting Go Fest in Paris, Pierre Rabadan, deputy mayor of Paris in charge of sport and president of Paris Je T\u2019aime, said in a press release, “Paris is very happy to be associated with Pok\u00e9mon GO Fest. Today, we spend a lot of time connected and looking at screens and we believe that this festival can allow us to develop a different and more active tourism, discovering new places, and catching Pok\u00e9mon in different locations within Paris and, more generally, in \u00cele-de-France.”<\/p>

“The charm of Paris, its walkability, and its globally recognized landmarks create the perfect playground for Pok\u00e9mon GO Fest. We’re eager to see Trainers explore this beautiful city and the elegant Parc de Sceaux alongside France’s passionate community and visitors from around the world,”\u00a0Lena Cillis, live events marketing manager said.<\/p>

On top of Pok\u00e9mon announced, players at the in-person live events like Paris will be able to experience real-life habitats, meet Pok\u00e9mon mascots and notable trainers, compete at the PVP battle ground, relax at team lounges, and come away with exclusive event merchandise.<\/p>

So there is a lot to look forward to, no matter how you decide to play this summer.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
