Get ready to catch some of the smallest yet most exciting Pokémon during the Small Yet Strong event in Pokémon Go. This event runs from February 5th to 8th, offering a variety of bonuses, wild encounters, and new opportunities to expand your collection. It's also a perfect chance to build your squad for the upcoming Pokémon Go Tour – Unova.

During the Small Yet Strong event, you'll earn double XP for catching Pokémon and have an increased chance of encountering XXS and XXL Pokémon in the wild. Among the many featured Pokémon, Shiny Nymble makes its debut.

Keep an eye out for regional Flabébé variations, including Red Flower in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Blue Flower in the Asia-Pacific region, and Yellow Flower in the Americas. If luck is on your side, you might even encounter White or Orange Flower Flabébé, regardless of your location.

ytOther Pokémon appearing more frequently in the wild include Paras, Natu, Joltik, and various Burmy forms. For an added challenge, you'll find Dialga and Enamorus (Incarnate Forme) in Five-Star Raids, with Mega Medicham and Mega Tyranitar taking center stage in Mega Raids. Both raid and wild encounters offer a chance to catch some rare Shiny Pokémon if you're fortunate.

For collectors, two km Eggs hatched during the event hold Pokémon like Togepi, Azurill, Budew, and Dedenne. Meanwhile, completing Field Research tasks will reward encounters with Burmy and Nymble. Don't miss the event-themed Timed Research and Collection Challenge, which offer rewards such as Stardust, Poké Balls, and more encounters with event-themed Pokémon.

To top it all off, PokéStop Showcases will also feature event-themed Pokémon, so keep an eye out. Don't forget to visit the Pokémon Go Web Store, where you can stock up on all the resources necessary to kickstart your journey.
