Pokemon GO Spring Event – What We Know

There was a whole heap of Pokemon GO postponements earlier on in the year because of the COVID-19 scare, including the likes of the highly-anticipated Abra Day. However, we reckon that Niantic is definitely pulling it back with the announcement of some upcoming fun. Forget Bunny Day in Animal Crossing: New Horizons – there’s a Pokemon GO Spring Event on the horizon and we’re raring to go. 

There’s going to be a whole load of flowery (read: springtime) Pokemon and egg Pokemon that will be hanging out about in Pokemon GO. We do love some costumed Pokemon for ourselves, and this not-so-secret Easter event will be the best time to get Pokemon who are all dressed up. If you want Pokemon decked out in blooms, you’re going to be able to look forward to the following making an appearance with adorable accessories:
