Falinks Raid Day in Pokémon Go explained

The Falinks Raid Day is running during the GO All Out event in Pokémon Go - from 2pm to 5pm (local time) on Sunday 8th September.

Falinks will be appearing in raids more frequently during these event hours. This Raid Day also marks the release of shiny Falinks and you'll have an increased chance of encountering its shiny form. So, if you fancy hunting down this brown centipede (Yes, it's shiny form is brown. Bleh.), you'll be happy to hear an additional five free Raid Passes can be collected by spinning Gym Photo Discs during the event.

Fear not if you prefer using Remote Raid Passes because the limit will be increased between the following times:

• UK - 1am (BST) on Sunday 8th September to 4am (BST) on Monday 9th September

This includes eight additional Raid Passes earned by spinning Gyms, an increased chance of earning Rare Candy XL, 50% more XP and double Stardust from Raid Battles.

Everything we know about GO All Out in Pokémon Go

GO All Out starts the Max Out season off to a bang running until Tuesday 10th September at 10am (local time) in Pokémon Go. During this time, you can enjoy a double XP bonus for both catching and evolving Pokémon! Don't forget that the Falinks Raid Day is also running during GO All Out and you can learn more about it in the section above.

This event also marks the release of a new quest in Pokémon Go - the Galar Calling. You have until Tuesday 3rd December at 9:59am (local time) to claim this quest and, after doing so, you can complete it whenever you like. It's important to note that this is a branching research quest, so we've taken a look at which Galar Calling Choose Path choice is best.

Let's stop dancing about the main attraction of GO All Out though - the proper release of Gen 8 in Pokémon Go. (I mean we've had a couple of Pokémon such as Legendaries, like Zacian, Galarian forms and, for some reason, Wooloo, but this is the first time we've seen a bunch of Gen 8 Pokémon debut in Pokémon Go all at once.)

GO All Out marks the release of these Gen 8 Pokémon:

• Grookey
• Thwackey
• Rillaboom
• Scorbunny
• Raboot
• Cinderace
• Sobble
• Drizzile
• Inteleon
• Dreepy
• Drakloak
• Dragapult

Being the main Gen 8 Dragon-type Pokémon, Dreepy will, of course, be far harder to find than the rest of the Pokémon, so be prepared for a long search. (Unless you get incredibly lucky and find it straight away. That won't happen to me though...) Some of these Pokémon can also only be obtained via evolution, such as Cinderace which you only get after evolving Scorbunny into Raboot and then evolving Raboot again. Though I guess you could also conduct a Special Trade for one!

Alongside these new Pokémon, the shiny forms for Wooloo and Skwovet, plus their evolutions Greendent and Dubwool, are being released as part of GO All Out!

The following Pokémon will also be appearing in the wild throughout GO All Out:

• Grookey
• Scorbunny
• Sobble
• Skwovet
• Wooloo

There's also been a number of changes for the egg pools during GO All Out and, below, we've listed all of the Pokémon we know are appearing:

5km Eggs

• Grookey
• Scorbunny
• Sobble

7km Eggs

• Galarian Meowth
• Galarian Ponyta
• Galarian Slowpoke
• Galarian Farfetch'd
• Galarian Zigzagoon
• Galarian Darumaka
• Galarian Yamask
• Galarian Stunfisk

10km Eggs

• Dreepy

Finally, you'll be able to enter your Galarian partner Pokémon in PokéStop Showcases throughout GO All Out.

Best of luck catching the new Gen 8 Pokémon throughout GO All Out!
