Those waiting for Niantic to shed some light on the next big Pokemon Go event are in luck, as the company has released details on the Festival of Light, which begins October 14 at 10 AM local time and runs until October 17 at 8 PM local time.
Morelull and Shiinotic, the mushroom-like Pokemon from the Alola region, will make their Pokemon Go debut during the Festival of Light event. Morelull will appear in the wild, and 50 candies will be required to evolve a caught Morelull into Shiinotic.
The event will also mark the return of Xerneas, the sixth-generation legendary Pokemon and cover star of Pokemon X, to five-star raids. Lucky players who challenge Xerneas in a raid may encounter its shiny variant when it's time to try and catch the Pokemon for themselves.
