Pokémon Go is bringing back the Bug Out event with Sizzlipede’s debut this time

Get ready for the return of the Bug Out event in Pokémon Go! From March 26th to 30th, a flurry of Bug-type Pokémon will invade, including the highly anticipated debut of Sizzlipede and its evolution, Centiskorch. This event is jam-packed with exciting wild encounters, raids, bonuses, and fresh challenges.

Lure Modules will be key during the Bug Out event. Not only will they attract Sizzlipede, but they'll also significantly increase the number of Pokémon appearing at a PokéStop if enough Pokémon are caught using a single Lure Module.

Trainers will also enjoy a 2x XP bonus and extra Candy for Nice Throws or better. Trainers level 31 and above will have increased Candy XL chances. Shiny hunters rejoice! Your odds of encountering Shiny Wurmple and Shiny Venipede are boosted.

Expect a surge of Bug-type Pokémon in the wild, including Caterpie, Weedle, Wurmple, Nincada, Venipede, Dwebble, Joltik, Grubbin, Dewpider, Nymble, and even a chance to find Cutiefly.

One-star raids will feature Sizzlipede alongside Scyther and Nincada, while Beedrill, Scizor, and Kleavor will dominate three-star raids. Complete event-themed Field Research tasks to earn Mega Energy, Scatterbug Candy, and encounters with event Pokémon.

Don't miss the free Timed Research with encounters featuring Shedinja, Sizzlipede, Kleavor, and more, plus a Lure Module. For extra rewards, a paid Timed Research option (approximately $2 or local equivalent) offers encounters with Heracross, Sizzlipede, and Kleavor, along with two Premium Battle Passes and an additional Lure Module.

New Collection Challenges will reward Stardust, XP, and Pokémon encounters. PokéStop Showcases will highlight event Pokémon. And finally, grab the new Sizzlipede Boots and Scolipede Jacket from the in-game shop!
