Pokemon GO Battle Showdown Event Begins Today

Niantic and The Pokemon Company have announced Pokemon GO Battle Showdown Event, which kicks off later today.

For the first two weeks of May, Fighting-type Pokemon will appear more frequently in the wild, such as Mankey, Machop, Makuhita, and Meditite. Players will also have a higher chance of hatching the hard-to-find Tyrogue from an Egg.

During the event, trainers will earn double the XP for taking down gyms and raids, double the XP toward earning a badge after interacting with a gym, and 6 times the amount of Stardust for succeeding in a raid.

Pokemon GO Battle Showdown Event runs from 1 p.m. (PDT) on May 1 until 1 p.m. (PDT) on May 14, 2018.
