Pokémon Go has another new in-game event, this time to celebrate Lunar New Year.

To celebrate the Year of the Dog, Pokémon Go is currently offering increased Stardust when you catch a pooch-related ‘mon.

That includes fire dog Growlithe, electric dog Electrike, fairy dog Snubbull, wolfy dog Poochyena, and Eevee which is more a fox but we’ll go with it.

(Houndoor is presumably left out because it was featured during last year’s Halloween event.)

Notably, this event also marks the appearance of a new shiny Pokémon variety – for Poochyena, and therefore also its evolution Mightyena. Anecdotal evidence suggests this shiny variant is, as usual, a rare find.

Feeling lucky? Starting today until February 17, Trainers who catch a Poochyena, Growlithe, Snubbull, Eevee, or Electrike will receive bonus Stardust. Happy #LunarNewYear! pic.twitter.com/FqaVsO65b3

Still seeing Luvdisc left over from Pokémon Go’s Valentines event? Niantic last night extended the heartfelt holiday shenanigans by another 24 hours due to some log-in issues yesterday evening.

If you’re out Pokémon hunting this weekend, Eurogamer has a Pokémon Go Lunar New Year event guide to help you maximise your catches.
