In addition, there will be a number of in-game events so people can celebrate through their favorite games.

For main series players, an extremely special event is coming for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

To celebrate Pokémon Day, there will be mass breakout events for Pokémon that look like Pokéballs.

The first two Pokémon to appear are Voltorb and Foongus, both of which are known for hiding disguised as Pokéballs.

However, the third Pokémon to appear in outbreaks has remained a mystery, but it is one that has never been available in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

Fans have discovered that Hisuian Voltorb is the last Pokémon available in these massive outbreaks.

Hisuian Voltorb can currently only be found in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, so people are happy to catch him in another game.

The Hisuian form adds a number of changes to Voltorb, including adding the Grass type to the existing Electric type.

The massive outbreak will begin Friday February 23, 2024and end on Pokémon Day Tuesday February 27, 2024.

This means you only have a few days to catch your Hisuian Voltorb, so fans should act quickly.
