Pokemon GO Día de Muertos Event Announced

Ever heard about Día de Muertos? It’s a holiday observed in Mexico and other parts of the Americas that celebrates the lives and the memory of friends and family who have moved on to another world.

In ancient Aztec tradition, it was said that the spirits of our loved ones never go away but simply travel to a different world, and during a special time each year, they would return to our world. Ever since, people that celebrate Día de los Muertos get ready for this occasion, setting the table with the favorite dishes of their ancestors, covering the streets with petals of the cempasúchil flower, and lighting candles and incense to enjoy a joyful celebration full of colors, music, flowers, and flavors.

To celebrate the holiday, Niantic has announced the Pokemon GO Día de Muertos event, which will feature a lot of special spawns, shiny opportunities, long-lasting Lure Modules and Incenses, and 2x catch stardust!

You can read even more on Niantic’s page via today’s post, and look forward to celebrating more when Pokemon GO Día de Muertos goes live on Monday, November 1, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. until Tuesday, November 2, 2021, at 8:00 p.m. local time.
