The final event to wrap up Pokémon Go’s “Season of Alola” is taking place from May 25-31, and it somewhat combines all the events we got this season. The event features spawn increases for Alolan Pokémon, so if you missed out on any over the last few months, now is a great chance to catch up. Our Pokémon Go “Alola to Alola” guide lists out the Special Research, spawns, and other bonuses active during the event.
Notably, you can temporarily evolve Cubone into Alolan Marowak and it will learn Shadow Bone during the event period.
