The Dual Destiny season ofPokémon GOis well and truly underway, kicking things off further with the newly announced event, Young & Wise. While Dual Destiny is packed with various big and quick events, like Community Days, the return of Hoopa Unbound, more Gigantamax Pokémon, and the debut of new Pokémon in the game, like Sinistea in Just My Cup of Tea, this latest four-day one gives Trainers the chance to get various baby Pokémon and other previous rare arrivals keen Trainers might have missed out on. It’s a great way to fill up your growing Pokédex even further.

There are plenty of the usual happenings going on inPokémon GOas well to keep track of, including this month’sSpotlight Hour schedulealong with all of theMax Monday bosses. Nevertheless, Young & Wise will provide you all the chances to catch and hatch multiple Pocket Monsters that may have been around in the game for a while but are usually hard to get, like Snorlax’s pre-evolution Munchlax or Stantler evolution Wyrdeer. If you are a casual player looking to expand your inventory of Pokémon or Shiny variants, this is another event to keep track of.
