Pokemon Go Kanto Tour Make-Up Event: What To Expect

Pokemon Go Tour Kanto Key Art Promo

After the long awaited Pokemon Go Kanto Tour dropped to Pokemon Go users all over the world, it was soon discovered that not all was at it seemed.

The problems were just beginning…

The Kanto event had players select their team, red or green, with increased spawn rates for a specific set of Pokemon within their colour choice.

The spawn rate wasn’t overly great, with users globally reporting that these colour specific Pokemon were difficult to obtain, and unless you had people to trade with, you would most certainly struggle to complete the entire Kanto Pokedex.

They then gave you 3 remote raid passes, and 7 raid only Pokemon, which also included the regional specific Pokemon of Mr Mime, Kangaskhan, and Tauros.

During the current times with countries in lockdown, social distancing, or even just for those who live nowhere within reach of a gym, it could most certainly make these Pokemon unattainable.

But that’s not the real problem

After the event ended, it was discovered that some players hadn’t paid for the event.

This wasn’t one of their cheaper events priced at £12.99, which only ran for 12 hours, unlike Go Fest which is a full weekend, that players had been able to obtain the special research for free.

Giving them access to the Kanto Tour exclusive Pokemon of shiny Ditto, which then of course unlocks the very exciting special ‘Mew Masterwork Research’, giving you exclusive, or not so exclusive access in this case, to shiny Mew.

Ninatic are sorry

Ninatic have apologised for this, and released details that players who paid for the event, and lets hope this is the case, will now have access to a ‘Make-Up Event’. Details of which have now emerged.

So what do we know so far?

From Friday, March 5th, at 10am, to Monday, April 5th 10am local time, players who purchased the event will now receive a bonus timed research, as well as a free bundle, and a free remote pass bundle.

Players will receive:

  • 100 Mew Candy
  • 30 Ultra Balls
  • A Poffin
  • A Lure Module
  • A Lucky Egg
  • A Super Incubator
  • A Star Piece
  • Three Silver Pinap Berries
  • An Elite Fast TM
  • An Elite Charged TM
  • A Charged TM
  • A Fast TM
  • 3 Remote Raid Passes

It does appear however, that people who have started the ‘exclusive’ research for free, can still complete the shiny Mew research.

We accept your apology Ninatic, it wasn’t your fault people cheated the system, and we are looking forward to another month of research. As soon as I know more, i’ll be sure to update. Happy playing.
