Pokémon GO players can earn a lot of special new stuff during events. Here are some ways they can maximize all the bonus that come with these occasions.

Niantic usually tries to maintain interest by holding special occasions like the recent Water Festival or Valentine's Day. Throughout these days, the developers have implemented a common theme, which they use to center the bonuses on. One example would be the additional water Pokémon spawns during the Water Festival.

CNET shares some ways that players can do to maximize the full potential of these Pokémon GO events. One way they can prepare is by earning free incubators and stocking up on them when they are on sale. There are some events that involve egg hatching so taking as much of these items can prove to be extremely beneficial.

Similarly, players should make the most out of the Double XP by hoarding Lucky Eggs and candy. Sometimes special occasions focus on a certain monster so power leveling it during an event can save lots of time.

In line with this, players should also be on the lookout for special Pokémon during events. Catching these monsters will transfer over their unique traits when they evolve. Two prime examples are the Party Pikachu and Shiny Magikarp, wherein the former keeps its celebratory hat while the latter becomes a Red Gyarados.

Moreover, usGamer shares that players should also earn the free customization items during events. Players who participated in the Water Festival got a free Magikarp hat. While it may not mean much, these cosmetics are a great reminder of the previous occasions the mobile game help.

Pokémon GO continues to expand with more features from the main series slowly making its way to the mobile title. Niantic has already transferred over the Gen 2 monsters with fans eagerly awaiting the Gen 3 Pokémon. Those who want to play can download the game for free on the iOS App Store or Google Play.
