Pokemon GO Player Finds Incredibly Rare Pokemon in the Wild

Pokemon GO players are always on the lookout to add some rare Pokemon to their team, and one fan seems to have hit the jackpot with their Unown encounter in the wild. The Psychic-type Pokemon in Pokemon GO is pretty unique for a variety of reasons, but this incident has shocked several in the community.

The past few weeks have been quite eventful for Pokemon GO players, with some fascinating events taking place in the game. Notably, the April Fools event was something that was really well received by the community. With nice and great throws being counted as excellent throws, several Pokemon GO fans who were stuck on level 49, or were struggling to complete the Jirachi research, were finally able to pass the frustrating hurdles. Amid that, a player seems to have come across an extremely rare spawn in the wild.

In a post on the Pokemon GO subreddit, user HoneyBee098 documents their encounter in the wild with an Unown. The Unown in question is the S-form of the Pokemon. Unown's 28 forms make it one of the most unique Pokemon. Each of these forms corresponds to a specific letter in the alphabet, along with a question mark and exclamation mark form. However, it's not the forms that make it rare, but instead the Pokemon in itself being so hard to get on a regular day.

In fact, several players on the post were actually quite perplexed at the revelation, since they believed that Unown could only be caught in special events. It is crucial to note that it is not that difficult to get this Pokemon in particular, since it has been a part of GO Fest and other raids in the past. However, when it comes to the wild, they are one of the rarest Pokemon one could find in Pokemon GO.

A player also narrated a similar incident where they found Unown through a tracker, and drove for 10 minutes at 3 in the morning to get the elusive Pokemon. The original poster didn't get theirs that easily as well, as they highlighted they had to get out in the rain to catch the S-form Unown. Other
