Next Pokémon GO Tour is Heading to Johto

Good news trainers! We finally have the details of the next Pokémon GO Tour event. This time, everyone is heading to Johto on February 26, from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., local time. Like the Kanto tour, there’s going to be a free experience along with an exclusive ticketed experience.

For the free experience, here are what trainers can look forward to:

• Some Pokémon originally discovered in Johto appear in the wild, appear in raids, and hatch from 7-km Eggs.
  • Some Pokémon originally discovered in this region and usually exclusive to certain parts of the world will appear in raids worldwide.
• Pokémon like Pichu, Cleffa, Igglybuff, and Togepi are going to hatch from 2-km Eggs received by spinning PokéStops.
• Be able to complete Timed Research related to Trainer Battles.
