Day 2 Updates for Pokémon Go Wild Area: Habitat Spawns and Ticket Bonuses

Wild Area is the latest big event in Pokémon Go, aiming to capture the essence of the location from Pokémon Sword and Shield.

Centered around electric- and poison-type Pokémon, this event is packed with exciting features, including the appearance of Gigantamax Toxtricity. With so much to look forward to during this weekend celebration, players can enjoy various perks and activities.

Legendary Pokémon that were previously exclusive make a grand comeback, including Origin Form Dialga and Palkia, alongside Primal Groudon and Kyogre. Additionally, the introduction of mighty Pokémon brings creatures that are larger, have superior stats, and are a bit of a challenge to catch.
