The Scorching Steps Event will be a five-day event, active from Friday, June 21, at 10am local time to Tuesday, June 25, at 8pm local time. Below you can find everything you will need to know about this event, including bonuses, rewards, research, and even a brand-new Pokemon Go debut.
Pokemon Go Debut: Shiny Larvesta
With the start of the Scorching Steps Event, you will have the chance of encountering Shiny Larvesta for the first time in Pokemon Go. Throughout this event, you will be able to hatch Larvesta in 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km Eggs, providing you with several chances to obtain this new Pokemon Go Shiny.
Event Bonuses
During the Scorching Steps Event, there will be several bonuses available to all players, remaining active throughout the entirety of its duration.
The majority of these bonuses have to do with hatching Eggs, allowing you to hatch more Eggs and obtain more rewards for doing so. Each of these three Egg-focused bonuses are provided for you below.
- Hatching Eggs will provide you with double the Candy.
- Eggs put in Incubators during the event window will have half the hatch distance.
- When using the Pokemon Go Egg Hatching Widget, the first three Eggs will have their hatch distance reduced to one fourth.
For the final bonus for this event, you will have increased chances of encountering both Shiny Slugma and Shiny Litleo. During this event, you will have the chance of encountering these two Pokemon through Egg hatching and Event Field Research Tasks.
Event Pokemon Eggs
There will be a change in the Pokemon that are typically hatched from 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km Eggs for this event, replacing them with different event-themed, Fire-type Pokemon. Each of these three Egg types and the Pokemon that can be hatched from them during this event can be found below.
Only 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km Eggs that are acquired after the start of this event will hatch the event-themed Pokemon below.
Egg Type | Possible Hatches |
---|---|
2 Km | Larvesta Growlithe Slugma Houndour Magby |
5 Km | Larvesta Hisuian Growlithe Darumaka Litwick Litleo |
