All new Pokémon for Psychic Spectacular 2024 in Pokémon Go
Two Pokémon are making their debut during the event: Hatenna and Dynamax Beldum. Hatenna will be trickier to track down. If you’re lucky, you can catch it in the wild, and you can also hatch it from 7km eggs or earn it as a reward from completing event-exclusive Field Research tasks. The event-exclusive Field Research tasks should have a specific banner around them in Pokémon Go, making them easier to stand out, and they drop from spinning PokéStops and Gym dials.
Dynamax Beldum will be easier to find. It will be appearing in Power Spots during the event, which randomly appear throughout your local area. You’ll see a timer on these Power Spots to see how long you have until they disappear, but you will need Max Particles and Dynamax Pokémon to challenge Dynamax Beldum in Pokémon Go.
