The Playful Connection Between Pokémon Go and 4/20: A Leafy Tribute

Have you ever pondered the peculiar spore-like particles released by Grass-type Pokémon? Or considered the idea of crafting a burning experience by rolling up their fragrant leaves and unleashing a Fire-type move on them?

Though these musings may not have crossed your mind, they certainly seem to be on the radar of game developers at Niantic. The creators of Pokémon Go have once again playfully tapped into the upcoming 4/20 date in a light-hearted way.

Recently, Niantic revealed that this month’s Community Day is scheduled for April 20th, featuring the Grass-type Pokémon Bellsprout. Adding to the excitement, Bellsprout will also be able to learn the new attack, Magical Leaf. Intriguing, isn’t it?

Reflecting on previous events, in 2023, Pokémon Go celebrated an event titled “Grass and Gratitude” starting on 4/20, allowing players to encounter the Mythical Grass-type Pokémon Shaymin.

Additionally, the 2022 event dubbed Sustainability Week coincided with April 20th as well, marking the introduction of Cherubi’s Shiny form—an apt choice considering Cherubi’s Pokédex number is #420.

Earlier this month, I had the opportunity to engage in a conversation with Niantic about the future of Pokémon Go as it approaches its 10th anniversary. Despite some players voicing concerns about a decline in the game’s allure and reports suggesting a downturn in revenue from app store analysts, Niantic asserted that Pokémon Go remains in robust condition.

As fans of the game look forward to the upcoming Community Day and reflect on the nostalgic connections to past events, it’s clear that Pokémon Go continues to embrace its playful spirit while evolving over the years.
