Pokémon Go Bug Out 2020

During the Summer months, Niantic has announced a bunch of in-game events. The popular mobile game already announced the Summer Solstice event through June and July. Now there’s another incoming event that Niantic has going on at the end of this month. The Pokémon Go Bug Out 2020 event will round out the major events for the Summer in the game. And yes, Niantic will be running Community Days as well.

Whereas the other event had sun and moon Pokémon showing up, this new event has something different. Scyther, Venipede, Dwebble, and many more Bug-type Pokémon will be the spotlight this time around. The Pokémon Go Bug Out 2020 event will go for a few days, and will feature unique Raids and other events as well as increased spawns. Any 5-kilometer eggs found during the event will also favor these types. And finally, any captures during the event offer double EXP.

Each day will feature a variety of Bug-type spawns, here’s the schedule that Niantic has laid out for each of the days of the Pokémon Go Bug Out 2020 event. The Pokémon Go Bug Out 2020 event begins on June 26 and runs through July 1.
