The Pokémon GO Battle Showdown is now underway until 1 p.m. (PDT) on May 14. As part of this in-game event, Fighting-type Pokémon such as Mankey, Machop, Makuhita and Meditite are now appearing in the wild more frequently, and players can watch out for hard-to-find Tyrogue hatching from Eggs more often. You’ll also get double the XP for taking on Gyms and raids. When you interact with a Gym, you’ll get double the XP toward earning a Badge as you usually earn. When you spin the Photo Disc in a Gym, you’ll receive more items than usual. Finally, when you’re successful in a raid, you’re guaranteed to receive a Rare Candy and whether you win or lose, you’ll earn 3,000 Stardust – six times the usual amount.
