With a focus on Electric-types and species of Pokémon that would typically be found in the industrial setting of a power plant, players can run into several rare species of Pokémon more frequently as the new event runs from Jan. 19 to Feb. 1.

Among these encounters is Helioptile, a Kalos native species that is making its Pokémon Go debut. Other Pokémon like Magnemite, Grimer, Voltorb, Electrode, Electabuzz, Porygon, and Trubbish will also be appearing more frequently.
