Safari Ball Rolls into Pokémon GO Wilderness

Get ready for the Pokémon GO Wild Area 2024 event! The highlight? The Safari Ball's debut as the game's seventh Poké Ball. Read on for details about this exciting event and its unique new item.

What's the Pokémon GO Safari Ball?

Long-time Pokémon fans will recognize Safari Zones from the main series games. These special areas allow catching rare Pokémon without battles – a concept Niantic is recreating with the Wild Area event.

Pokémon GO hasn't introduced many new Poké Balls. We regularly use the Poké Ball, Great Ball, and Ultra Ball. Premier Balls also exist, along with the ultra-rare Master Ball.

The Wild Area event runs globally from November 23rd to November 24th, 2024, concluding at 6:15 pm local time. Important: Unused Safari Balls vanish from your inventory after the event ends.

During the event, the Safari Ball becomes your primary tool for capturing powerful Pokémon. It's intriguing that Niantic isn't releasing these balls in existing Safari Zone or City Safari events, opting instead for a brand-new event launch.

The ball's design remains a mystery. Many Pokémon GO players anticipate a green camouflage pattern, mirroring the Safari Ball's appearance in the core games. Only time will tell! Share your predictions in the comments.
