Tinkatink Debuts in Pokémon Go for Pokémon Horizons: Season 2 Celebration

The Horizons Celebration event is back in Pokémon Go, and this time, it's introducing the adorable and vibrant Tinkatink along with its evolutions, Tinkatuff and Tinkaton. Mark your calendars for April 16th to 22nd, as these pink-hued Pokémon are making their debut in the game.

Tinkaton, known for its playful yet powerful nature, carries hammers that are more than just decorative. This Pokémon is famous for using them to launch rocks at Corviknight, and you can evolve your Tinkatink into Tinkaton by collecting 125 Candy during the event week.

Adding to the excitement, a costumed Floragato wearing a hat adorned with Liko’s pin will be appearing in the wild, hatching from Eggs, and participating in Raids. Keep an eye out for its Shiny variant, which could be a rare find. Alongside Floragato, you might encounter Pikachu donning Cap’s hat and Charcadet as well.

Other Paldea region favorites like Fuecoco, Sprigatito, Quaxly, and Pawmi will be roaming the wild areas. Meanwhile, seven km Eggs have the potential to hatch familiar Pokémon such as Hatenna and Elekid, with a chance to hatch Tinkatink too. Don't miss out on the snapshot surprises, where characters from the Horizons series might photobomb your pictures.

For those looking to battle, Pikachu in Cap’s hat comes equipped with the special move Volt Tackle. Raid battles will feature a mix of Pokémon including Charizard, Metagross, Alolan Muk, and more Floragato. Team Go Rocket balloons will appear more frequently, and during the event, Egg hatch distances are reduced by half, with increased chances of encountering Shiny Pokémon and higher Stardust rewards.

Engage in Field Research tasks and take advantage of both free and paid Timed Research opportunities, where you can earn exclusive rewards like a unique avatar pose. To prepare for the event, consider purchasing the Celebration Event Ultra Ticket Box from the Pokémon Go Web Store for $4.99.
