Pokémon Go Spelunker’s Cove – All Pokémon encounters, raids, and Field Research tasks

For fans who can’t participate in the Pokémon Go Fest Madrid adventure, the Spelunker’s Cove event will help tide you over. The event allows you to catch several beach and cove-loving Pokémon, such as Crabrawler, who’s getting their Shiny version for the event.

Alongside Crabrawler are several other Pokémon you can catch in the wild by challenging them in raids or completing Field Research tasks as rewards. Expect several opportunities to encounter a Shiny Crabrawler, and there’s also a Timed Research you can grab if you’d like to purchase it for your Pokémon Go account.
