Shiny Clefairy arrives and Lunatone and Solrock will be changing regions during the solstice-themed event

Bonuses

2x Catch Stardust*

* This 2x Catch Stardust bonus will NOT stack with the Community Day 3x Catch Stardust bonus. (via Niantic Support)

Features

  • Pokémon associated with the sun and moon—including Clefairy, Sunkern, and more—will be appearing more frequently in the wild, hatching from 5 km Eggs, appearing after completing event-exclusive Field Research tasks, and appearing in raids.
  • If you’re lucky, you might encounter a Shiny Clefairy! Previously, you could get a Shiny Clefairy only by hatching a Shiny Cleffa and evolving it, so this will be the first time you’ll have a chance to encounter Shiny Clefairy in the wild.
  • Throughout the event, Lunatone and Solrock will both be appearing in three-star raids and hatching from 5 km Eggs, regardless of your location.
  • Lunatone and Solrock will be appearing in the wild in different regions. See the schedule in the spawn section for more details.
