- Bug Out returns March 26th through 30th - Sizzlipede debuts in one-star raids - Rare Pokémon encounters await
The Bug Out event is buzzing back into Pokémon Go with swarms of Bug-type creatures and exciting debuts—welcome Sizzlipede and its fiery evolution Centiskorch! From March 26-30, trainers can experience boosted spawns, special raids, juicy bonuses, and fresh challenges.
Lure Modules become supercharged during this event. Not only will they attract Sizzlipede, but they'll also trigger bonus spawns when trainers collectively catch enough Pokémon at a single PokéStop.
Bonus rewards include doubled XP and extra Candy for landing Nice Throws or better, with boosted Candy XL odds for seasoned trainers (level 31+). Shiny hunters rejoice—your chances of spotting sparkling Wurmple and Venipede just got brighter!
Natural wild spawns will feature buggy favorites like Caterpie, Weedle, Wurmple, Nincada, Venipede, Dwebble, Joltik, Grubbin, Dewpider, and Nymble. Keep those Poké Balls ready—you might even stumble upon the rare Cutiefly!
Sizzlipede headlines one-star raids alongside Scyther and Nincada, while three-star raids feature powerhouse bugs Beedrill, Scizor, and Kleavor. Complete special Field Research tasks to earn Mega Energy, Scatterbug Candy, and encounters with featured Pokémon.
These redeemable Pokémon Go codes might come in handy!
