Aquatic Paradise Event Joins NYC Go Fest in Pokemon Go

We’re just a week away from the much-anticipated Pokémon Go Fest 2024: New York City, bringing the excitement of this beloved in-person event to the heart of the Big Apple. If you're planning to be in NYC from July 5th to 7th, don't miss out on the festivities at Randall’s Island Park. Alongside this, Pokémon Go enthusiasts worldwide can look forward to an exciting Aquatic Paradise event scheduled from July 6th to 9th.

The Aquatic Paradise event is your chance to dive into a world filled with water-type Pokémon, similar to those featured at the NYC event. You can expect to encounter a variety of themed Pokémon in the wild, such as Horsea, Staryu, Wingull, Ducklett, and many more. To enhance your experience, use Incense to attract exclusive Pokémon like Shellder, Lapras, Finneon, and Frillish. Keep your eyes peeled for Shiny variants, which might just make an appearance! Additionally, you'll earn double XP for catching Pokémon, so be sure to throw Poké Balls at anything that moves.
