Also, don’t forget about the Pokemon Go Tour: Kanto going on until February 20.  In the ticketed version of this Pokemon Go event, you’ll choose between the Red Version or Green Version of the event, and each will feature version-exclusive Pokemon. You will be completing event-exclusive Special Research, and testing your Pokemon-collection skills, and trading with a friend who can choose the other version will be important, just like it was in Red and Green.

During the Pokemon Go Tour: Kanto, the first 150 Pokemon originally discovered in this region will be available as Shiny Polemon – some for the first time ever. You will be able to encounter these Pokemon after the event is over.

There will be a special Kanto-themed celebration event and Raid Day at the end of February to close out the Season of Celebration.

The feature will start rolling out over time and will go worldwide to Trainers level 38 and above toward the end of March.

Soon, you will also be able to capture the moment you level up in Pokemon Go without screenshotting. The level-up social share feature will be coming in February to players worldwide.

Niantic also said that soon, you’ll be able to transfer Legendary and Mythical Pokemon when selecting multiple Pokemon by enabling the functionality in the game settings.

Sounds like a busy month is coming your way.
