The world’s first Pokémon GO Safari Zone in South America is now taking place along the Guaíba Riverbank in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil. From Friday, January 25, to Sunday, January 27, Trainers of all ages are able to catch a wide variety of Pokémon, including some rarely seen throughout South America. This is a free ticketed event with limited availability for those who registered earlier. If you didn’t receive tickets, don’t worry; while you won’t be able to see any Pokémon within the event space along the Guaíba Riverbank, all Trainers will encounter many of the same Pokémon throughout all of Brazil during the event. Read on below for event features:
