Pokemon Go A Very Slow Discovery LIVE: Galarian Slowpoke, Mega Slowbro, Slow Pokemon raids

A Very Slow Discovery event is coming to Pokemon Go and it brings with it a load of Slow Pokemon, including Galarian Slowpoke and Mega Slowbro.

Discovery really is the mood in the mobile game this June, with Niantic announcing an entire Season of Discovery will take over the app throughout the month.

One part of that will be hemisphere exclusive Pokemon, which are broken into Northern, Southern, and Rare Wild Spawns.

A part of the event, however, is Pokemon Go’s A Very Slow Discovery, which will present players with the opportunity to pick up not just Pokemon making their debuts, but also a whole host of bonuses as well. If you would like to take part, let’s run through the main details.

Kings Rock Pokemon Go

The Kings Rock is a very rare item in Pokemon Go.

To get a Kings Rock item in Pokemon Go – which is used to evolve Slowpoke into Slowking in Pokemon – you have to spin PokeStops.

There is around a 1% spawn rate per spin at the PokeStops, making them one of the rarest items in PoGo.

One method players use to obtain the Kings Rock this way is to keep a seven-day streak of spins, which will give you a boosted chance of getting one. While it’s not guaranteed, it’s certainly a more assured way of getting one than random spins once in a while. After 250 spins, that chance increases to over 50%.
