Ever wondered how to snag those elusive, rare Pokemon in Pokemon GO? You’re not alone! Discovering these rare critters is a thrilling part of the game.

So, let’s dive into the secrets of tracking down rare Pokemon in Pokemon GO.

Spotting Rare Pokemon: The Basics

Finding rare Pokemon can seem like finding a needle in a haystack. But don’t worry, it’s totally doable with some insider tips! Rare Pokemon pop up in specific areas, depending on their type. For instance, Water-type Pokemon often appear near bodies of water.

Also, the time of day and weather conditions can influence the types of Pokemon you encounter. So, if you’re after a particular rare Pokemon, make sure to hunt at the right time and under the right weather conditions!

The Role of Lures and Incense

Using lures at PokeStops and incense can significantly increase your chances of encountering rare Pokemon. Lures attract Pokemon to a PokeStop for 30 minutes, benefitting all nearby players. Incense, however, is personal and lures Pokemon to your location. Combining these tools can bring some exciting and rare Pokemon right to you!

And don’t forget about special events! Niantic regularly hosts events that increase the spawn rates of rare Pokemon, providing a golden opportunity to catch those you’ve been dreaming of.
