Mumbai: In the heart of Mumbai, where the vibrant streets pulse with life, Pokémon GO fans are gearing up for an unprecedented adventure. The anticipated Pokémon GO City Safari will take place on Saturday, 29 March and Sunday, 30 March 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. IST. This two-day event promises an immersive exploration of the city, combining its rich culture with the excitement of Pokémon GO.

Players from around the world will gather to experience the thrill of catching Pokémon at Mumbai’s iconic landmarks and local favourites. The event will feature gameplay, unique in-game bonuses, and opportunities to connect with fellow trainers in the ever-growing Pokémon GO community.

“At Niantic, we are committed to enhancing the Pokémon GO experience with new features and adventures. Trainers in India have been looking forward to great Pokémon GO events, and we have been working towards providing them with the best experience to immerse themselves in the world of Pokémon through our in-game events and local meetups. Through the Pokémon GO City Safari in Mumbai, we’re excited to bring a special opportunity for the Trainers and communities in India who constitute a key share of our Pokémon GO world,” said Niantic Inc. vice president for emerging markets Omar Tellez.

Notably, Mudbray, the Donkey Pokémon, will make its debut at the City Safari events, offering Trainers a chance to catch it along with other rare Pokémon like Alolan Meowth, Mr. Mime, Corsola, and even Shiny variants for the lucky ones. Additionally, Trainers can explore the city with an Eevee wearing an explorer hat, which can be caught during the City Safari Special Research and evolved into any of its known forms.
