📍: New York City, USA

📣 Trainers!
We’ve received a transmission from Professor Willow that there was a sudden surge of strange energy 💥 in North America. We have a bad feeling about this... Stay alert.

Your time practicing your battle skills with Spark, Blanche, and Candela has prepared you for this moment, Trainers. #TeamInstinct, #TeamMystic, #TeamValor: it’s important to be unified right now. Like this post if we can count on you! ⚡❄️🔥

Team GO Rocket’s arrival seems to have disrupted Pokémon habitats! 🔀😨 Pokémon like Ekans and Koffing have suddenly started appearing more frequently, with some possibly being Shiny Pokémon! ✨🤔 Here’s what we know for now:

“Not only does Purification heal the Shadow Pokémon from its painful state, it also makes it stronger. Purify the Shadow Pokémon you catch, and you’ll create a powerful bond with a Pokémon that’s been through so much.” —❄️ Blanche ❄️

Professor Willow has discovered a process to help Shadow Pokémon. It’s called Purification, and Blanche has observed that a Purified Pokémon’s gratitude makes it much stronger 💪 and causes the move Frustration to be replaced with Return! Let’s GO help more Pokémon, Trainers!

“Pokémon grow stronger with the right training, love, and care—not through whatever means Team GO Rocket is using. These Shadow Pokémon are in pain and need our help! You better hope we don’t cross paths, Grunts!” —🔥 Candela 🔥

Professor Willow and Candela have discovered the cause of the Shadow Pokémon’s strange behavior—they’ve been powered up unnaturally and are in pain. We’ve heard that Candela is burning with rage at the thought of Pokémon being unnaturally strengthened. 🔥😡🔥

“If Team GO Rocket thinks they can take over PokéStops without a fight, they got another thing coming! C’mon, Trainers—let’s get charged up! It’s time to GO defeat some Grunts!” —⚡ Spark ⚡

After visiting a PokéStop controlled by Team GO Rocket together, Professor Willow and Spark defeated a Team GO Rocket Grunt and questioned him about their intentions! Turns out that they plan to take over all the PokéStops in Pokémon GO! 😨

❗️🚨❗️ Attention, Trainers ❗️🚨❗️
We need your help! Team GO Rocket has invaded the world of Pokémon GO! 😨😱😨

Reports of these discolored PokéStops are starting to reach critical mass. @Pokemon Do you have any idea who these people could be??

Feeling excited for August #PokemonGOCommunityDay? 🎉
This upcoming Community will be featuring the Feeling Pokémon, Ralts! 😃

Professor Willow has noticed that sightings of discolored PokéStops and Pokémon enshrouded in a shadowy aura have...suddenly stopped? 🤔 🔍 Hmm... This phenomenon keeps getting more troubling the more we investigate it. 😨

After taking a closer look with Spark, Professor Willow reported that Pokémon with some sort of mysterious aura were hanging around these discolored PokéStops. We hope they can get to the bottom of this!

Expectation: You want to go to the beach with your friends! 😀🏖️
Reality: You spend the day counting raindrops. 🙁 🌧
Sometimes summer days are unexpectedly filled with rain. 🌧
Fortunately, you can always hang out with your Pokémon Buddy! 🎉

It looks like sightings of discolored PokéStops have increased, as more Trainers have started to submit reports. Hmm... This is very troubling.
