A Pokemon GO player shared a helpful trick for getting Gimmighoul Coins faster. Pokemon GO was among the games included in the Pokemon Day 2023 celebrations, which announced several new contents for the entire franchise.
Ghost-type Gimmighoul is one of the new Pokemon introduced in Gen 9 that is now also available in Pokemon GO. In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, the adorable little Pokemon can be found in two forms. One is the Chest Form, which players can battle and capture, and has Gimmighoul hiding inside a red chest filled with coins. The second Gimmighoul variant is the Roaming Form, which will flee when a player tries to interact with it, and cannot be captured. Gimmighoul evolves into the stylish Steel/Ghost-type Gholdengo, but to do so, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players must get 999 Gimmighoul Coins.
In Pokemon GO players can capture the Roaming Form of Gimmighoul and evolve it into Gholdengo. But just like in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, it is also necessary to collect 999 Gimmighoul Coins, which requires a lot of time and effort. Reddit user TomediosSalame revealed a useful trick that can speed up the process, and it consists of spinning other players' Golden Lures. Pokemon GO players get a Coin Bag by sending the first postcard to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, while subsequent postcards will give a Golden Lure. Using a Golden Lure will turn a PokeStop gold, and the player will be able to collect Gimmighoul Coins. According to TomediosSalame, it is possible to obtain between 5 and 15 coins through this process.
The arrival of Gimmighoul in Pokemon GO was one of several new features announced at this year's Pokemon Day. In addition to connectivity between Pokemon GO and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet finally being available, a new peripheral will be released for Niantic's game, allowing for integration between Pokemon GO and Pokemon Sleep. Named Pokemon GO Plus+, the peripheral will give players access to special research, and find an adorable Snorlax wearing a sleeping cap. Keeping up the Pokemon Day hype, Niantic also announced Pokemon GO Season 10 and March 2023 Community Day.
The process of catching Gimmighoul equires patience, so the trick shared by TomediosSalame got a lot of positive feedback from other Redditors. Pokemon GO may have problems, but like other games in the Pokemon franchise, the Pokemon GO community is constantly sharing information to have a better gaming experience.
Pokemon GO is available on Android and iOS.
