Pokémon GO Kicks Off 2026 With Major Momentum

Pokémon GO has wasted no time making 2026 a busy year. The game launched the Pinch Perfect event, introducing Gen 9 Pokémon Klawf and the shiny debut of Dhelmise, while also confirming that Shiny Fidough will arrive later in January during the Precious Pals event.

Alongside January’s main Community Day featuring Grookey and a Community Day Classic starring Piplup, these updates show an aggressive content rollout. The potential inclusion of Vulpix in February would continue that trend, reinforcing Niantic’s push to keep players engaged early in the year.
