Reading time: 2 min

Pokémon GO has teased the upcoming “Psychic Spectacular” event, set to run from September 18th at 10:00 a.m. to September 22nd at 8:00 p.m. local time. This new event promises to introduce exciting features and Pokémon, including the debut of Hatenna, for trainers to explore.

One of the main attractions of the Psychic Spectacular is the introduction of Hatenna, a Psychic-type Pokémon making its debut. Hatenna evolves into Hattrem and eventually into Hatterene. Players will be able to find Hatenna through Field Research, 7 km Egg Hatches, and in the wild. To evolve Hatenna into Hattrem, players need 25 Candies, and to reach Hatterene, 100 Candies are required. In addition to Hatenna, several other Psychic-type Pokémon will appear more frequently in the wild. These Psychic-type Pokémon as follows:

  • Elgyem
  • Gothita
  • Inkay
  • Morelull
  • Ralts
  • Solosis
  • Spoink
  • Spritzee
  • Swirlix

The event also teases the introduction of Dynamax Beldum. During the Psychic Spectacular event , players can encounter Dynamax Beldum in three-star Max Raids. This is a significant addition because Metagross, the final evolution of Beldum, is a popular Pokémon among players. However, players will need to catch a new Beldum to Dynamax it, as existing Beldum, Metang, or Metagross cannot be Dynamaxed.

To enhance the event experience, several in-game bonuses will be available; those bonuses are as follows:

  • Double Stardust: Players will earn double Stardust on Pokémon catches during the event.
  • Extra Candy: Performing Nice, Great, or Excellent Throws will yield additional Candy. Players that are above level 31 will have an increased chance of receiving XL Candy instead.
  • PokeStop Showcases: Look out for special displays at PokeStops during the event.
  • Collection Challenges: Acquiring all listed Pokémon per challenge will provide various rewards.
  • Paid timed Research: Available for $2.00, this research offers extras like Incubators, XP, and additional encounters with Hatenna.

With the Psychic Spectacular event on the horizon, players are eagerly anticipating these new features and challenges. Whether you’re excited to catch Hatenna, participate in Dynamax Raids, or take advantage of the event bonuses, there’s plenty to look forward to.
