Summer solstice in Pokémon GO: when does it start?
The first and most important thing: the dates. The summer solstice in the northern hemisphere will mean that the days are longer and that in the southern hemisphere the nights are longer than in the rest of the year. Thus, Clefairy, the Pokémon that appears in a group on full moon nights to play, will be seen wild in a varicoloured form in an exceptional way.
The event will start on Friday, June 19, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. and end on Wednesday, June 24, 2020 at 10:00 p.m. local time.
Summer Solstice Event Details
All Pokémon related to the sun and moon, such as Clefairy and Sunkern among others, will appear more frequently in the wild in Pokémon GO; also when hatching 5 km Eggs, after completing exclusive field research tasks of the event and in raids. Until now, you could only get a Varicoloured Clefairy by hatching and evolving a Varicolore Cleffa. Now we will have the opportunity to catch various colored Clefairy in the wild.
On the other hand, Lunatone and Solrock will appear in the 3-star raids during the mentioned period; also in the 5 km Eggs regardless of location: worldwide.
