On the occasion of the newly launched event, we reviewed all the activities and research tasks, with a lot of Mega Energy for Mega Gyarados.
The 2021 Lunar New Year Event has already started in Pokémon GO. After knowing all the details of this celebration, which seeks to commemorate the beginning of the year of the Ox and which will give prominence to certain Pokémon species, such as Tauros or Gyarados (guide for Mega Gyarados here), it is time to review all the research tasks of this new challenge available in game for a limited time. We list all the missions and their rewards.
Date and details: Lunar New Year event in Pokémon GO
The Lunar New Year 2021 Event begins this Tuesday, February 9, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. and will be available until next Sunday, February 14, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. (local time), Valentine’s Day and also the day when the Pokémon GO Valentine’s Event will be held.
The only thing we knew so far is that Tauros will come up to be seen in the research tasks, since he is the great protagonist of the Year of the Ox (he is a Brave Bull); But now we also know that it is an ideal opportunity to get Mega Energy from the newly added level 5 raid boss, Mega Gyarados.
