The new season of Pokémon Concierge has landed on Netflix worldwide, and Pokémon Go is getting in on the celebration. For just under a week, there’s an increased chance to encounter the stars of the beautifully animated, stop-motion show, and plenty more rewards to earn.
I might be biased, but costumed Pokémon are one of the best things about Pokémon Go, and a new one is joining the game’s Pokédex thanks to this tie-in event. The Pokémon Concierge Celebration Event sees the debut of Haru’s loyal Psyduck wearing a swim ring, and it’s absolutely adorable. Plus, there’s even an increased chance to find a shiny version of the water Pokémon during the event, making it turn light blue to match its floaty accessory.
Other prominent Poké-pals from the show, like Sealeo and shiny Shinx, also have increased encounter rates in the wild, and you might get a surprise from some of the Pokémon and characters when you take snapshots. Does this mean Haru can photobomb us, too? As usual, the event features Timed Research tasks, and the paid version of these tasks comes with an event-themed avatar pose, mimicking the morning exercises that Haru does on the resort.
