Get ready, Pokémon Go enthusiasts, as the Bug Out event is making a triumphant return from March 26th to 30th. This event promises an exciting array of Bug-type Pokémon, featuring the much-anticipated debut of Sizzlipede and its evolution, Centiskorch. Dive into a world buzzing with wild encounters, challenging raids, rewarding bonuses, and fresh new challenges.

During the Bug Out event, Lure Modules will be your best friend, attracting not only Sizzlipede but also increasing the number of Pokémon at a PokéStop when a single Lure Module is used effectively. This is your chance to catch more Pokémon and make the most out of your time in the game.

The event is sweetened with bonuses like double XP and extra Candy for Nice Throws or better, and for trainers level 31 and up, an increased chance to earn Candy XL. Shiny hunters, rejoice! Your odds of encountering Shiny Wurmple and Shiny Venipede will be significantly higher.

Expect to see a variety of Bug-types in the wild, including Caterpie, Weedle, Wurmple, Nincada, Venipede, Dwebble, Joltik, Grubbin, Dewpider, and Nymble. Keep your eyes peeled for the rare Cutiefly as well.

Sizzlipede will take the stage in one-star raids, alongside Scyther and Nincada, while Beedrill, Scizor, and Kleavor will dominate the three-star raids. Make sure to complete the event-themed Field Research tasks for a chance to earn Mega Energy, Scatterbug Candy, and encounters with event Pokémon.

Don’t miss out on the free Timed Research, which offers encounters with Shedinja, Sizzlipede, Kleavor, and more, plus a handy Lure Module. If you're looking for even more rewards, consider the Paid Timed Research for $2 (or local equivalent), featuring encounters with Heracross, Sizzlipede, and Kleavor, along with two Premium Battle Passes and an additional Lure Module.

Engage in the new Collection Challenges to earn Stardust, XP, and Pokémon encounters, and showcase your catches in the PokéStop Showcases dedicated to event-themed Pokémon. And don't forget to check out the in-game shop for the new Sizzlipede Boots and a Scolipede Jacket to complete your Bug Out look.
