Marshadow makes its Pokémon GO debut during Pokémon GO Fest!
This year, the Mythical Pokémon Marshadow—the Gloomdweller Pokémon—aims to overshadow the event! After making its Pokémon GO debut during the Pokémon GO Fest 2024 events in Sendai and Madrid, this shadowy Pokémon will make a follow-up appearance in New York City!
Follow the story told by your event-exclusive Special Research and adventure throughout the park, and get ready for your own mysterious encounter with Marshadow!
Trainers will only encounter Marshadow once no matter how many GO Fest 2024 Special Research stories they acquire and complete. If you plan to attend multiple in-person GO Fest 2024 events, the first relevant Special Research story you obtain will award your Marshadow encounter. Any subsequent GO Fest Special Research you obtain and complete will award you with Marshadow Candy instead of a Marshadow encounter once it is completed.
