Shroodle and Grafaiai, the charming Poison/Normal-type Pokémon from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, debut in Pokémon GO during the Fashion Week: Taken Over event, starting January 15th. This event also features a special research quest to rescue Shadow Palkia and increased encounters with Shadow Pokémon.
Niantic's Fashion Week: Taken Over event brings Shroodle and its evolution, Grafaiai, to Pokémon GO starting January 15th. Beyond these Gen IX additions, the event is packed with bonuses and exciting challenges. Shroodle, a Pokémon with a uniquely large head, evolves into the lemur-like Grafaiai at level 28. Both Pokémon have made cameo appearances in Pokémon Horizons.
During the event (January 15th, 12:00 AM to January 19th, 8:00 PM local time), Shroodle will hatch from 12 km Eggs, evolving into Grafaiai with 50 Shroodle Candy. Team GO Rocket will be more prevalent in balloons and at PokéStops, and a Charged TM can help Shadow Pokémon forget Frustration. Snapshot enthusiasts might encounter a fashionably dressed Croagunk.
