Summary
Pokemon GOannounced the debut of Rookidee, Corvisquire, and Corviknight on January 21 at the Steely Resolve event.Pokemon GOplayers have been waiting for the addition of the Corviknight evolutionary line for some time, and now it comes to increase the number of Galar Pokemon available in the game.
With the launch ofPokemon GO’s Dual Destiny Seasonin December 2024, Niantic introduced a new loading screen. This screen caught the attention of players, who promptly noticed the appearance of Rookidee and Corviknight, two Pokemon that had not been announced until then. But players noticed that the Flying/Steel-type wasn’t revealed by subsequent events, leaving the community wondering when the pocket monsters would finally debut in the augmented reality game.

That wait is now over, as Rookidee, Corvisquire, and Corviknight will debut inPokemon GOon January 21 during the Steely Resolve event. The event will start at 10 am and end on January 26 at 8 pm local time, and during that time players will see the trio for the first time in the game. Another part of the Dual Destiny seasonal Special Research will be available with new rewards. Magnetic Lure Modules will attract critters like Onix and Beldum, andShadow Pokemoncan forget the Charged Attack Frustration by using a Charged TM. Niantic will increase the spawns of 10 monsters, including Clefairy, Paldean Wooper, and Carbink.

The year has got off to an engaging start forPokemon GOplayers, with several events to take part.
