Pokémon GO enthusiasts, get ready for the Sweet Discoveries event, where you'll have the chance to encounter the adorable Applin for the first time. This event is a must for anyone passionate about adding new Pokémon to their collection or hunting for those elusive shiny variants. Dive in to learn everything you need to know about this exciting event.
When Is Applin Debuting in Pokémon GO?
Mark your calendars! The Sweet Discoveries event kicks off on April 24th at 10:00 a.m. and continues until April 29th at 8:00 p.m. local time. The highlight of this event is the debut of Applin, a Grass and Dragon-type Pokémon hailing from the Galar region.
To evolve Applin into Flapple, you'll need 200 Applin Candies and 20 Tart Apples. Alternatively, to evolve it into Appletun, you'll require 200 candies and 20 Sweet Apples. For its final evolution into Dipplin, and ultimately Hydrapple, follow the evolution path diligently.
A key element of the evolution process involves the Apples, which you can find in the wild. Tapping on them might reward you with a Tart Apple, a Sweet Apple, or even Applin itself. Increase your chances of encountering Apples by using Mossy Lure Modules.
Did You Know?
Applin is unique in that it spends its entire life inside an apple, cleverly disguising itself to evade bird Pokémon, its natural predators. It's undoubtedly one of the cutest Pokémon in the entire roster of Pokémon GO.
During the Sweet Discoveries event, you can snag some new avatar items from the shop, including an Applin Headband and an Applin Apron. Additionally, enjoy the event bonus of receiving 2× Candy for every Pokémon you catch.
Your chances of encountering Shiny Delibird and Shiny Skwovet in the wild will be higher during this event. There's also an increased likelihood of hatching Shiny Delibird, Shiny Cherubi, and Shiny Skwovet from 7 km Eggs.
Another delightful aspect of the event is the berry drops. Catching Delibird or Skwovet will reward you with berries, adding a sweet touch to your gameplay. If you haven't already, download Pokémon GO from the Google Play Store and join the fun.
