Pok\u00e9mon Go<\/em> players are convinced the Go<\/em> Fest 2023 event announced earlier today will be headlined by the Diancie, the Rock and Fairy-type Mythical Pok\u00e9mon from Generation VI. They believe this to be the case for three reasons based on social media discussions after the announcement.<\/p>
The first reason is that Diancie is the one mythical Pok\u00e9mon <\/em>from that generation that hasn\u2019t been added to the game yet. The second is it has a Mega Evolution, and Niantic is running out of Pok\u00e9mon capable of doing that to add in.<\/p>
Finally, the event logo has two pink crystals in it, which players believe is a reference to the ones on Diancie\u2019s body.<\/p>
The reasoning checks out, but it\u2019s nothing more than speculation at this stage. We\u2019ll find out once the Go<\/em> Fest 2023 kicks off in three months<\/a>. The first wave will take place in London and Osaka between August 4 and 6. The second one will follow suit in New York City between August 18 to 20\u2014just like an image that leaked a day before the announcement suggested<\/a>.<\/p>
But while some seem excited about the event and the speculation about it, others don\u2019t want to let it distract them from the dissatisfaction and disappointment brewing after Niantic\u2019s controversial Remote Raid Pass changes. They\u2019ve been leaving comments on the official Twitter thread<\/a> to let their voices be heard.<\/p>
