Players are eagerly anticipating the upcoming Pokémon Go: Tour event and wondering what surprises it will bring. However, there are concerns about the release of Shiny Pokémon from the Sinnoh region. In previous events, all Shiny Pokémon were available, but this won’t be the case for the Sinnoh iteration. This has led to worries about a potential “logjam” in future events.
A Reddit thread on Oct. 23 highlighted these concerns, with players noting that several Shiny versions of Pokémon from the Sinnoh region have yet to be released in Pokémon Go. The absence of Arceus, Manaphy, Phione, and Shaymin’s unreleased Shiny forms is causing apprehension among players.
There are two main speculations regarding the Pokémon Go Tour: Sinnoh event. Some believe that a large batch of content will be dropped, featuring many species to hunt through various features. Others think that the event may focus more on Pokémon releases and therefore lack Shiny content. The top-voted comment suggests that only Shaymin will have a Shiny form available during the Sinnoh tour, while the other three Mythical Pokémon will be initially released without their Shiny versions.
Players have also shared their wishlist for the event, hoping to see new Pokémon species such as Arceus, Manaphy, Phione, and highly-anticipated Mega forms. However, it is important to note that Niantic has not officially announced the details of the Pokémon Go Tour: Sinnoh event.
The event is expected to take place in early 2024, based on the schedule of previous Pokémon Go Tours. The last event, highlighting Hoenn, occurred in February. Players are eagerly awaiting more information about the Sinnoh event and what it will bring to the game.
