The 2022 Valentine’s Day in-game event takes place from Feb. 10 at 10am local time to Feb. 14 at 8pm local time.

The event bonuses that all players will get are double Lure Module duration, double Catch Candy, and your Buddy Pokémon will bring you more items during the event. There are also three new Pokémon debuting during the event: Flabébé, Floette, and Florges. Frufrou will even have a new form change available, which will allow players to transfer a normal Frufrou into a Heart Trim Frufrou.

The event will also have two Valentine’s Day-themed Collection Challenges, which when completed will award players with two Frillish, one female and one male. In addition, there will be several attacks available for Gallade and Gardevoir. If players evolve a Kirlia during the event into either form, it will learn Synchronoise. Gallade and Gardevoir caught from raids during the event will already know the move.
