Last month, Niantic held one of their biggest Pokemon GO events yet. Pokemon GO Tour: Kanto allowed players to pick Red or Green tickets (based on the original games) and then capture Pokemon based on their selection. Every Pokemon was from the Kanto region and for the first time ever, many were released in their shiny forms. However, in typical Pokemon GO fashion, everything with the event didn't run smoothly, forcing Niantic to hold a makeup event. Here are all the details from the Pokemon GO Kanto Tour bonus event.

Date and Time

The event runs for a whole month and is available for anybody who bought a ticket to the Pokemon GO Tour: Kanto. It kicks off this morning, Friday, March 5 (10 am local time) and finishes on Monday, April 5 (again, 10 am local time).
