1. safari zone in brazil
The first-ever Pokémon GO Safari Zone in South America will take place later this month in Porto Alegre, Brazil. From January 25 to January 27, rare Pokémon and Relicanth will be spawning in Porto Alegre for those who win a ticket in the raffle.
During that weekend, Psyduck will spawn in increased numbers globally. It was not explicitly stated as with past Safari Zones, but it is implied that Shiny Psyduck will be released given the similarities to past real-world event tie-ins that released the Shiny Pokémon they boosted the spawn rates of.
