Get ready for the Pokémon GO Wild Area 2024 event! The highlight? The Safari Ball's debut as the game's seventh Poké Ball. This article explores the event and this exciting new addition.
What is the Pokémon GO Safari Ball?
Long-time Pokémon fans will recognize Safari Zones from the main series games. These areas allow for rare Pokémon capture without battles – a feature Niantic is replicating in this Wild Area event.
Pokémon GO has seen limited new Poké Ball additions. Regular options include the standard Poké Ball, Great Ball, and Ultra Ball, alongside Premier Balls and the coveted Master Ball.
The Wild Area event runs globally from November 23rd to November 24th, 2024, concluding at 6:15 pm local time. Important note: any unused Safari Balls vanish from your inventory after the event ends.
During the event, the Safari Ball becomes the key tool for capturing powerful Pokémon. Niantic's decision to introduce this ball during a new event, rather than existing Safari Zone or City Safari events, is intriguing.
The ball's design remains a mystery, though many speculate a green, forest camouflage appearance, mirroring its core game counterpart. Share your predictions in the comments!
