There's also a host of bonuses that you can take advantage of during this event, including the release of shiny Slowpoke and the return of shiny Meltan, which, unlike shiny Slowpoke, will only be available during the event.

Throughout the Pokémon Home event, a number of Pokémon will be appearing more regularly in raids. This includes the legendary members of the Swords of Justice - Cobalion, Terrakion and Virizion.

The non-legendary Pokémon you'll find in raids include Alolan Vulpix, Slowpoke, Magnemite, Shinx, Timburr and Klink, among others.

Certain Pokémon will also appear more frequently in the wild. These Pokémon are:

• Alolan Sandshrew
• Zubat
• Alolan Diglett
• Slowpoke
• Magnemite
• Ditto
• Porygon
• Hoothoot
• Remoraid
• Whismur
• Lileep

• Cottonee
• Foongus

Eggs don't want to be left out of the Pokémon Home event either, so Nidoran ♀, Nidoran ♂, Slowpoke, Omanyte, Kabuto, Lileep and Anorith will all be hatching from 5km, making this event a great time to add some new fossil Pokémon to your team.

Finally, a range of new Melmetal clothing, along with Grand Oak's Glasses, will be available in the Style Shop from the Pokémon Home event onwards.

'Pokémon Home Event' dates and times in Pokémon Go explained

The Pokémon Home event in Pokémon Go is a celebration of the game's integration with Pokémon Home, which will finally allow you to transfer the Pokémon you catch in Pokémon Go to either Pokémon Sword or Shield.

The Pokémon Home Event research quest is only available during this event, which runs from Tuesday, 17th November to Monday, 23rd November, ending at 10pm local time.

The Pokémon Home Event research quest consists of four quest steps, with each one rewarding you for every individual challenge and overall step you complete. Since, like most event research quests, it's a timed research quest, you must ensure that you complete Pokémon Home Event before the event ends or less you won't be able to collect all of the Mega Energy that it offers.

Aside from the timed research quest, the Pokémon Home event has a variety of bonuses for you to enjoy, including the limited return of shiny Meltan, so make sure your Mystery Box is ready to go.

Hope you enjoy the Pokémon Home event!
