Pokémon that first appeared in Pokémon Sword and Shield’s Galar region will soon be available in Pokémon GO, Niantic announced.
Newcomers are coming to the game as part of the app’s latest Ultra Unlock event; Called “Part 3: Sword and Shield,” the event will feature the debuts of two Galar legendaries, Zacian and Zamazenta. As you’ll see in the trailer above, new Pokémon appear in the game thanks to the mysterious mischief of the Mythical Pokémon Hoopa, which also played a starring role in the recent Pokémon GO Fest 2021.
Other Galar Pokémon are also expected to appear, including Skwovet, Greedent, Wooloo, Dubwool, and Falinks. Shiny Galarian Meowth, Shiny Galarian Farfetch’d, Shiny Galarian Weezing, and Shiny Galarian Stunfisk can also be found – if you’re lucky.
