Pokemon Go is still making tons of cash, which means developer Niantic, and Nintendo (which is part of The Pokemon Company) are still supporting it. While previous early Niantic events have been disastrous, the company is still hosting them, and without the critical mass of players involved, the outages are less frequent.
The newest event on the block was expanded upon this past weekend: a Safari Zone celebration in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It’ll take place in Fairmount Park from Friday May 8 to Sunday May 10 of this year, and will feature the following Pokemon: “Voltorb (including a shiny), Alolan Sandshrew, Unown P, Bronzor, Rufflet, and more.”
Tickets are on sale now and will run you $12 for the standard admission and $18 for early access (two hours early). Naturally, since this is a mobile game, there’s also yet another add-on, or, real life DLC, to buy. It’s called the Explorer Pass, and will run you $8: you can find details on that below.
