The upcoming Pokémon GO event will feature Pokémon from the Hoenn region primarily and trainers will be able to get helpful items for catching more and more Pokémon, maybe even Pokémon they have missed chances to catch initially.

During the event, players will have an increased chance of seeing Pokémon who come from the Hoenn region, as well as having access to some of the legendaries of that region and some of their special forms.

Completing the Research Tasks from this event will grant players a chance to encounter and use those aforementioned special forms; Primal Kyogre and Groudon. The primal forms of these Pokémon will have stronger moves and will carry a lot more strength in battle as compared to their original forms.

Pokémon GO Primal Rumblings Event Start Date

The Pokémon GO Tour: Hoenn - Las Vegas event starts tomorrow, Feb. 18 and will continue into Feb. 19. The event is exclusive to players who hold a ticket to participate within the area in and around Las Vegas, particularly that of Sunset Park.

However, the event "goes global" the following weekend, beginning Feb. 25 and ending Feb. 26, so Pokémon GO players all over the world will have the chance to immerse themselves in the event and catch some of their favorite Hoenn Pokémon.

Pokémon GO trainers should definitely consider joining in on the event, by either playing in Las Vegas or the weekend after when a much wider audience will have access, so that they don't miss out on catching some rare and strong Pokémon.
