Safari Ball Returns to Pokémon GO in 2024

Get ready for the Pokémon GO Wild Area 2024 event! The highlight? The highly anticipated Safari Ball makes its debut as the seventh Poké Ball in the game. This event recreates the beloved Safari Zones from the main Pokémon games, offering a unique chance to catch rare Pokémon without battling.

What's the Pokémon GO Safari Ball?

For veteran Pokémon trainers, Safari Zones are familiar territory – special areas where rare Pokémon are easily caught. Niantic is bringing this experience to Pokémon GO with their Wild Area event.

Pokémon GO hasn't seen many new Poké Balls over the years. We regularly use the standard Poké Ball, Great Ball, and Ultra Ball, along with Premier Balls and the legendary Master Ball. The Safari Ball adds a significant new option.

Event Details & a Catch!

The Wild Area event runs globally from November 23rd to November 24th, 2024, concluding at 6:15 pm local time. Important: Any unused Safari Balls will vanish from your inventory after the event ends, so use them wisely!

During the event, the Safari Ball will be your best bet for capturing powerful Pokémon. Niantic's decision to introduce this ball during a new event, rather than established Safari Zone or City Safari events, adds an element of intrigue.

The Safari Ball's design remains a mystery, although many predict a green camouflage pattern, consistent with its appearance in the core games. What are your thoughts? Share your predictions in the comments!
