Pokémon enthusiasts around the globe are in for a treat as Pokémon Go Fest 2024 will feature a variety of rare Pokémon including Maractus, Corsola, Heatmor, Durant, Volbeat, Illumise, Solrock, and Lunatone.

To assist in your quest, we’ve outlined below how to locate Maractus, Corsola, Heatmor, Durant, Volbeat, Illumise, Solrock, and Lunatone at Pokémon Go Fest 2024. Each section includes their Pokédex numbers and native regions for easier tracking.

How to Catch Maractus During Go Fest 2024

Maractus, registered as Pokémon #556, is a Grass-type Pokémon hailing from the Unova region, primarily found in South America (including the Caribbean, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic). Even within these areas, spotting Maractus is rare.

To catch Maractus during Go Fest 2024, you first need to purchase a ticket, costing £14.99 / $14.99 (or equivalent in your local currency). Region locks have been lifted for this event, but a fee is in place.

Once you have your ticket, activate an Incense (including Daily Adventure Incense) during the event hours, specifically during the Dawn Meadow habitat hours. Notably, only certain Pokémon like Unown (A, D, G, H, I, N, T, and Y), and specially costumed Espeon and Umbreon will spawn during this time. On July 14th, Maractus will appear in the wild along with other Pokémon but is expected to be easier to find during its designated habitat hour.

Additionally, ticket holders can achieve a Maractus encounter by completing step 3 of the Go Fest 2024 special quest titled A Shadowy Caper. It’s worth mentioning that shiny Maractus is currently not available in the game, so don’t fret if you don’t encounter one. Its performance in Go Battle League is lackluster, so simply catching and adding it to your Pokédex is adequate.

How to Catch Corsola During Go Fest 2024

Corsola, Pokémon #222, is a Water/Rock-type creature from the Johto region, typically found in warm coastal areas around the globe. Countries where Corsola spawns include tropical regions in Africa, Asia, Northern Australia, the Middle East, and South America. However, like many exclusive Pokémon, Corsola’s appearances can be infrequent.

As with Maractus, obtaining Corsola requires a ticket purchase. Once you acquire your ticket, use an Incense during the event hours of Shining Day. Alongside Corsola, you’ll encounter a variety of Unown and specially trained Eevees.

Corsola will also be available to catch in the wild on July 14th during Go Fest, making it easier to spot during its designated habitat hour. Completing the quest to earn 8,020 Stardust will also grant you a chance to catch this Pokémon.

Shiny Corsola has been available since February 2022’s Go Tour Johto event, making it a fantastic target for trainers. Though it isn’t particularly useful in Go Battle League, catching it for your collection is worthwhile.

Unfortunately, Galarian Corsola won’t appear during this event, as it has not yet been released in Pokémon Go.

How to Catch Heatmor and Durant During Go Fest 2024

Heatmor, Pokémon #631, is a Fire-type Pokémon, while Durant, Pokémon #632, is a Bug/Steel-type. Heatmor may primarily be found in Europe, Asia, and Australasia, whereas Durant appears in Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas.

To catch Heatmor and Durant during Go Fest, a ticket isn’t necessary. Instead, simply participate in the event during the respective habitat hours. During the Dawn Meadow hour, look out for Heatmor, while Durant can be found during the Creeping Dusk hour.

Both Pokémon will also spawn on July 14th, but they will be easier to find during their specific habitat hours. If you’re aiming for shiny versions, both have been available since the Go Fest 2020; however, their shiny variants are not particularly impressive.

How to Catch Volbeat and Illumise During Go Fest 2024

Volbeat (#313) and Illumise (#314) are Bug-type Pokémon that, like others, possess regional spawning properties. Volbeat is generally found in Europe, Asia, and Australasia, while Illumise appears in Africa and both North and South America.

For these two, there is no ticket charge. Engage during their designated habitat hours to enhance your chances of catching them. Both will spawn during the Creeping Dusk hour along with other Pokémon like Gible and Emolga.

Shiny variants for both Pokémon have been obtainable since the April 2021 Buddy Up event, featuring unique color schemes that can be appealing to collectors.

How to Catch Lunatone and Solrock During Go Fest 2024

Lunatone, Pokémon #337, and Solrock, Pokémon #338, are Rock/Psychic-type Pokémon, with Lunatone typically found due east of Greenwich and Solrock to the west. However, their strict regionality is often set aside during events like Go Fest.

As with previous Pokémon, no ticket is required to catch Lunatone and Solrock. To track down Lunatone, visit during the Darkest Night hour, while Solrock can be captured during Shining Day hours.

Both will feature prominently on July 14th and will be easier to capture during their allotted habitat hours, strengthening your opportunity to add them to your Pokédex. While shiny versions are available, their designs may not meet expectations, as they both retain their subdued aesthetic.

Conclusion

With the arrival of Pokémon Go Fest 2024, players have a golden opportunity to catch Maractus, Corsola, Heatmor, Durant, Volbeat, Illumise, Solrock, and Lunatone. Ensure you participate during the event hours and activate Incenses to maximize your chances. Happy hunting, and may your Pokédex grow ever fuller!
