Detective Pikachu has been dominating the worldwide trends and we can see its influence in Pokemon Go as well, today marks the official beginning of the Detective Pikachu event in Pokemon Go which will run for about 10 days. In this event, you will be able to catch Pikachu in this movie avatar.
The event will end on the 17th of May which gives Pokemon trainers a lot of time to get their hands on the most adorable Pokemon in existence. To catch Pikachu you will have to make use of the snapshot photobomb feature.
Pikachu will be spawned increasingly and will also available in areas earlier where trainers found it difficult to find electric type Pokemon. The event will also feature tons of Pokemon who are in the film and they will spawn more frequently as well.
