Pokémon Go gets ready for the debut of Applin and Dynamax Entei later this month

Author:Kristen Update:May 19,2025

This month, Pokémon Go enthusiasts are in for a treat with the introduction of two Pokémon from the Galar region: Applin and Dynamax Entei. Whether you're drawn to the adorable or the powerful, these events promise something for everyone. The Sweet Discoveries event, running from April 24th to 29th, marks the debut of the charming Dragon/Grass-type, Applin. To evolve Applin, you'll need 200 Applin Candy and 20 apples. Using a Tart Apple will evolve Applin into Flapple, while a Sweet Apple will transform it into Appletun. Keep an eye out for apples in the wild, especially around Mossy Lures, where you might also encounter Applin.

During the Sweet Discoveries event, expect to see Bounsweet, Skwovet, and Delibird appearing more frequently in the wild. Additional Pokémon like Munchlax and Cherubi can be encountered through Field Research and Eggs. You can acquire Sweet and Tart Apples via Timed Research, which offers both free and paid options. The paid version provides extra Mossy Lure Modules and more chances to encounter Applin.

Don't miss the opportunity to snag the Applin Headband and Apron available in the shop, and participate in PokéStop Showcases featuring themed Pokémon. For those who prefer a more intense challenge, mark your calendar for the Max Battle Weekend on April 26th-27th, where Dynamax Entei makes its fiery debut. If fortune favors you, you might even encounter a Shiny Entei.

To prepare for these exciting events, make sure to redeem the latest *Pokémon Go codes*. During the events, enjoy several bonuses, including an increased Max Particle cap, reduced distance needed to collect Max Particles, and faster Power Spot refresh rates. You'll also earn eight times more Max Particles from each Power Spot you visit. Leading up to the Max Battle Weekend, a free Timed Research starts on April 21st, rewarding you with a Dynamax Sobble to help counter Entei's fiery might.

Get ready for both events by stocking up on necessary items at the *Pokémon Go Web Store*.
