Summary
Niantic announced a newPokemon GOevent that will see Galarian Corsola and Cursola make their debut in the hit mobile game. Aside from adding toPokemon GO’s roster of Galarian mons, the new event will also serve as a conclusion to the game’s 16th season.
Titled Max Out, theongoingPokemon GOseason kicked offon September 3, introducing new spawns, Special Research tasks, and limited-time bonuses. As was the case with the previous 15 seasons, Max Out will run for three months, and is scheduled to conclude on December 3.
Niantic has now announced the finalPokemon GOMax Out eventthat’s meant to conclude the current season. Aptly called Max Out Finale, the promo will run from November 27 at 10am to December 1 at 8pm local time. The highlight of the event is the in-game debut of Galarian Corsola, meaningPokemon GOis also adding the tiny mon’s evolution, Galarian Cursola. Evolving a Galarian Corsola to Cursola will require 50 Corsola Candy.
The coral-shaped pocket monster will be hatchable from 7km Eggs for the duration of Max Out Finale.Pokemon GOplayerswill also be able to hatch a shiny Galarian Corsola, though the odds of doing so are currently unclear. Past events of this sort typically featured shiny rates of around 1 in 50, equating to a 2% chance. However, since not every 7km Egg will hatch a Galarian Corsola, the actual chances of getting one are ostensibly going to be lower.
Max Out Finale will also feature several event bonuses, including an extra 5,000 XP awarded for every successful raid and halved hatching distances for Eggs placed inPokemon GO’s incubators. As per usual, players will be able to use 10 Remote Raid Passes per day rather than the usual five for the duration of the event. Half a dozen mons will appear more frequently in the wild during Max Out Finale, including Grookey, Scorbunny, and Sobble. Ditto for Skwovet, Wooloo, and Falinks, which will also have a chance of being shiny.
Apart from new Field Research tasks, Max Out Finale will also introduce another premium Timed Research. Priced at $5, this set of tasks will reward players with an event-themed avatar pose, and also serve as a guaranteed way to encounter many event-themed Pokemon. New Collection Challenges will also be part of the promotion, together with limited-time PokeStop Showcases and raids. Niantic is expected to share more details about the 17th season ofPokemon GOin the coming days, likely before Max Out concludes on December 3.
