Team Go Rocket will soon be living the island life in a new limited-time event: the Pokemon Go All-Hands Rocket Retreat.
The even kicks off April 3 at 12 AM local time and will run until April 7 at 11:59 PM local time, and it will see the fiendish Team Go Rocket try to steal some of Alola's rarest Pokemon. Players will be able to complete event-themed research tasks that will net them special rewards, including the ability to catch Shadow Latias.
The Alolan forms of Rattata, Exeggutor, and Sandshrew will join the Shadow ranks in this new event.
The event will also add two new Alolan Pokemon to the game: the Fire- and Poison-type Salandit and its evolution Salazzle. 50 Salandit candies will be needed to evolve Salandit to Salazzle, but only a female Salandit can evolve, so make sure you have the right one.
