Pokemon GO To Get New Hoenn Pokemon Starting Today

Plus, a second community event has also been announced.

The slow rollout of the menagerie of Pokemon in the hit mobile game Pokemon GO continues. Niantic announced that an additional 23 Pokemon, all from the hit Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire games, the fan favorite third generation of Pokemon (that was recently remade as Pokmon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire for Nintendo 3DS) will be available in Pokemon GO starting today.

That’s not all, either- following on the success of the first one, a second Pokemon GO Community Day event has also been announced. The second event will be held next month, on February 24, and this one will feature Dratini. You can find the timings for this new event for yourself below.

Pokemon GO is available now on iOS and Android smartphones; if you’re looking for a slightly meatier pocket monster catching experience, then Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, which just launched on the Nintendo 3DS in November, might be more up your alley.
