Pokémon GO is partnering with the Pokémon Fossil Museum in Chicago for a new collaboration event that will introduce Excavator Pikachu to the game for the first time. The crossover will also include themed content inspired by the museum exhibit, bringing together Pokémon and real-world paleontology in a way that matches the exhibition’s focus. The event continues Pokémon GO’s trend of tying in-game activities to live experiences and regional attractions. With the Pokémon Fossil Museum opening at the Field Museum, the collaboration adds another major draw for local fans attending the exhibit.
