Niantic birthday box time and date in Pokémon Go explained
The Niantic birthday box is available from 11am to 5pm (local time) on Wednesday, 6th October in Pokémon Go.
This short time frame makes the event very easy to miss and, if you do fall prey to this, you'll miss out on the birthday box, so make sure you collect it as quickly as possible!
The Max Out Season is here and includes a new global event, Wild Area, and the current 2024 Halloween event brings us Morpeko and the Halloween cup. You can now catch Dynamax Pokémon through Max Battles. First, however, you need to visit Power Spots to collect Max Particles and complete the To the Max! quest. Don't forget to try out Routes, Gift Exchange and Party Play while you're hunting down rare Pokémon, fighting in the Go Battle League or competing in PokéStop Showcases.
