Shadowy Mayhem and Electric Sparkles

Trainers! Team GO Rocket just threw down the gauntlet, and it’s about to get legendary! The Taken Treasures event kicks off TODAY, bringing Shadow Pokémon galore and electrifying debuts like Varoom! ⚡

This week’s all about facing your fears (and frustration!). Those pesky Grunts are packing heat with Shadow Corphish, Snorunt, Chimchar, Piplup, Croagunk, Dwebble, and Ferroseed. But brace yourselves, because the big bosses – Sierra, Cliff, and Arlo – have switched up their lineups too! Get ready for some surprises!

And then there’s the main event: SHADOW KYOGRE! Giovanni’s got this behemoth by his side, and only the bravest Trainers who complete the Seasonal Special Research will get a shot at this watery titan. But don’t wait – you have till March 1st to claim that research

But Taken Treasures isn’t just about shadows. Shiny Ho-Oh is lighting up the Five-Star Raids, and there’s a whole bunch of one and three-star Shadow baddies to blast through. Plus, event-themed Field Research is dropping Mysterious Components, TMs, and encounters with cool Pokémon!

For the ultimate treasure hunter, there’s even a $5 Paid Timed Research with a stash of Stardust, XP, goodies, and a sweet event-themed avatar pose.

So, Trainers, what are you waiting for? Gear up, grab your buddies, and dive into the Taken Treasures event! Who’s your dream Shadow catch? What team are you bringing to face Kyogre? Let’s hear it in the comments – let’s keep the hype train rolling!
