Europeans can now join in on the fun of Pokémon Go events, just like players in North America have been enjoying for years. The Pokémon Company announced on Nov. 6 that European players can now participate in officially sanctioned events held at local retailers in cities such as Berlin, London, Milan, Stockholm, and more. The exact locations of these events can be found on the Pokémon Go official website.
These events aim to bring the Pokémon community together, allowing players to meet up, compete against each other, and earn exclusive rewards not available elsewhere. They are similar to the events organized for Pokémon Trading Card Game players.
There are two types of events: Pokémon Go League Challenges and Pokémon Go League Cups. The League Challenges are beginner-friendly tournaments that occur frequently, providing a great opportunity to learn how to battle and gauge one’s skills against others.
On the other hand, the League Cups are more intense events, offering players the chance to earn Championship Points and qualify for major competitive tournaments.
Whether players are seeking casual fun or a competitive thrill, there is an event suitable for everyone. The best part is that these events occur regularly, ensuring there is always an opportunity to get involved.
The expansion of Pokémon Go events into Europe marks an exciting new chapter for players in the region. It brings them closer to a truly global community for the game, eliminating the need to travel overseas to North America or any other continent to participate in the local competitive scene.
