Keep an eye out for regional Flabébé variations, including Red Flower in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Blue Flower in the Asia-Pacific region, and Yellow Flower in the Americas. Lucky players might even spot White or Orange Flower Flabébé, regardless of their location.
Other Pokémon you'll encounter more frequently in the wild include Paras, Natu, Joltik, and various Burmy forms. For a tougher challenge, you can participate in Five-Star Raids to battle Dialga and Enamorus (Incarnate Forme), while Mega Medicham and Mega Tyranitar will be featured in Mega Raids. Both raid and wild encounters provide opportunities to catch rare Shiny Pokémon if luck is on your side.
For collectors, two km Eggs hatched during the event may contain Pokémon such as Togepi, Azurill, Budew, and Dedenne. Completing Field Research tasks will reward you with encounters with Burmy and Nymble. Make sure to engage in the event-themed Timed Research and Collection Challenge, which offer rewards like Stardust, Poké Balls, and more encounters with event-themed Pokémon.
To round off the event, PokéStop Showcases will feature event-themed Pokémon, so be sure to participate. Also, visit the Pokémon Go Web Store to stock up on all the resources you'll need to make the most of your journey.
