Pokemon Go\'s upcoming Scattered to the Winds event lets you nab new Shiny Pokemon

Author : Mila Mar 17,2025

February might still have a chill in the air, but Pokémon GO is heating things up with its exciting new event: Scattered to the Wind! This event brings a flurry of new rewards, research tasks, and boosted encounter rates.

Get ready for double XP from PokéStop spins and a whopping 5x XP bonus for your first spin of the day! You can also open up to 40 Gifts daily (or 60 with the Eggs-pedition Access: February ticket). And that's not all – you'll have an increased chance to encounter a Shiny Pidgey!

But the real excitement lies in the boosted Shiny encounter rates for Scatterbug, Petilil, and Vivillon. By pinning postcards from around the world, you'll significantly increase your chances of finding these shiny Pokémon. Plus, there are new Field Research Task rewards and a paid Timed Research to look forward to!

Out of your shell

Pokémon GO's events consistently encourage exploration and social interaction, and this one is no different. While the focus on international postcards is unique, it adds a global element to the gameplay. Remember, this event is only available for a limited time, from February 18th to 20th, so don't miss out!
