The Season of Light's final events are currently playing out in Pokemon GO, which means it is time for trainers to start looking ahead to what the early winter months have in store. The ninth season of the mobile AR game kicks off on December 1, 2022 and should be jam-packed with activities, spawns, bonuses, and events that can keep players engaged through the cold months of December, January, and February.Although full details about season 9 haven't been confirmed yet, a new trailer just dropped that reveals a ton of hints about what players can expect during the Season of Mythical Wishes. The short teaser includes a lot of familiar faces from Hoenn region and ends with a pretty exciting Legendary teaser for Pokemon GO Tour 2023.It sounds like there will be a unique mechanic in play during the Season of Mythical Wishes that allows players to select from a variety of different Timed Research Tasks to take fate into their own hands and make their wishes come true.
What do you wish for, Trainer? During three different events over the course of the Season, Trainers can make their wishes come true by selecting a bonus from three different Timed Research tasks... The bonus will be in addition to existing event bonuses. Trainers can pick from one of the following options.
More details will obviously be arriving soon, but so far we know that at least four events are on the way:
- Mythical Wishes: Make a wish!
- Winter Holiday Part 2
- Lunar New Year
- Valentine's Day
Based on prior seasons, it's likely that players can expect a lot of other activities to be announced soon and that those four are just a handful of the biggest. The full list of season special spawns and ongoing bonuses are likely going to be revealed in the coming days as more information about the Season of Mythical Wishes is unveiled. For now, players can start planning ahead and rewatching the trailer to make sure they catch every Pokemon appearance and hint that pops up throughout the short hype trailer.
