Power Plant spawns and event bonuses in Pokémon Go

The main draw of the Power Plant event is the release of Helioptile and Heliolisk into Pokémon Go. These electric and normal-type Pokémon hail from the Kalos region, which makes them part of Gen 6.

Helioptile will be appearing in the wild, alongside the following Pokémon:

• Magnemite
• Grimer
• Voltorb
• Electrode
• Electabuzz
• Jolteon
• Porygon
• Trubbish

Electric and steel-type Pokémon have also invaded one-star raids, with Pikachu, Beldum, Shinx, Blitzle and Klink all being available for battle.

Both the three and five-star raid pools will change at 10am (local time) on Monday, 24th January, with Regice becoming available in five-star raids. Meanwhile, in three-star raids, you’ll be able to battle Dewgong, Piloswine, Monferno and Druddigon.

Finally, from Monday, 24th January at 12am (local time), Team Go Rocket will also be pushing their evil agenda once again. They will start invading PokéStops and their balloons will be flying through the sky more frequently. You can also use a Charged TM on a Shadow Pokémon to help it forget Frustration.

Team Go Rocket may have more plans…

April 2022 introduces the Silent Schemes event, which requires learning new Leader counters and Giovanni counters. Elsewhere, we’ve recently seen new Ditto disguises as part of the Season of Alola, which also introduced An Akala Adventure and more Gen 7 Pokémon including Fomantis and Tapu Lele. Elsewhere, off the back of the Go Tour Johto event is Masterwork Research Apex to complete.

Power Plant date and times in Pokémon Go

The Power Plant event in Pokémon Go is running from Wednesday, 19th January to Tuesday, 1st February at 10am (local time).

Remember – Team Go Rocket is up to no good during this event from Monday, 24th January at 12am (local time). We may learn more about their latest activities closer to this date…

Good luck catching Helioptile!
