PokemonGo will celebrate the Festival of Colors globally for the first time!
Taking place from 15th March 2022 to 20th March 2022, the event will have Trainers from across the world join in to celebrate with a wide range of colourful Pokemon appearing during the festival. The Festival of Colors 2022 promises to add more excitement as part of the new
Season of Alola.
Last year, the Festival of Colors was the first regional in-game event for India, where Indian trainers experienced a fluttering of festive hues. Pokemon associated with different colours of the Festival of Colors was attracted to Incense more frequently than normal. As part of the
Festival of Colors celebration, two Avatar costumes were released for all Trainers.
Trainers in India were also able to complete a series of Timed Research tasks to receive a variety of in-game rewards. Prior to the event, the India Wayfarer Challenge was also announced, and Trainers were awarded a bonus after the event.
Niantic has been ramping up operations in India since 2021 with events such as the Festival of Lights. During The Festival of Colors, a new Pokemon Dedenne has released as well as a rangoli inspired avatar outfit.
