Pokémon GO Set To Roll Out Safari Ball In The Wild Area Event 2024

The highly anticipated Pokémon GO Wild Area event is almost here, and the star of the show is undoubtedly the Safari Ball – the game's seventh Poké Ball! This article delves into the details of this exciting new event and its unique Poké Ball.

What's the Pokémon GO Safari Ball?

Long-time Pokémon fans will recognize Safari Zones from the main series games. These special areas allowed for catching rare Pokémon without battling. Niantic is replicating this experience with the new Wild Area event.

Pokémon GO has seen limited additions to its Poké Ball roster over time. Players regularly use the standard Poké Ball, Great Ball, and Ultra Ball. Premier Balls exist, along with the coveted Master Ball.

The Wild Area event runs globally from November 23rd to November 24th, 2024, concluding at 6:15 pm local time. A crucial detail: any unused Safari Balls will vanish from your inventory after the event ends.

During the event, the Safari Ball will be the key to catching powerful Pokémon. Niantic's decision to introduce this ball in a new event, rather than existing Safari Zone or City Safari events, is intriguing.

The ball's design remains a mystery, though many speculate it will feature the signature green camouflage pattern familiar from the main series games. Only time will reveal the truth! Share your predictions in the comments.
