Pokémon GO Dragon Week Makeup Event Starting Soon! [Details]
Pokémon GO Dragon Week, which was held from July 31 to August 7, gave trainers a chance to catch some decent Dragon-Type Pokémon in the game. During that one week trainers had a chance to catch Shiny Deino, Bagon, Alolan Executor, Dratini, along with some amazing items as rewards. These rewards and Dragon-Type Pokémon could be obtained by completing various Pokémon GO Dragon Week Timed Research Tasks. But, due to a technical issue trainers were unable to complete some timed research tasks and failed to obtain some rewards. Thus, to compensate for the mishap during the previous dragon week, Niantic is holding another Dragon Week that is named the Pokémon GO Dragon Week Makeup Event. In this article, we will discuss the Dragon Week Makeup Event in detail, know about the rewards, and the Dragon Week Pokémon that you can obtain by completing the research tasks.
