Pokemon GO developers at Niantic have introduced a regular feature in the game known as the PokeStop Showcases. This recent addition has garnered great popularity among players, who enjoy comparing the different attributes of their monsters. The PokeStop Showcases have now become a weekly event, and multiple competitions will take place throughout the month of October 2023.
The concept of PokeStop Showcases was first introduced during the Pokemon GO 7th Anniversary Party event, providing players with an exciting new way to compete. Apart from collecting powerful monsters, players now have the opportunity to focus on monsters with unique attributes such as their length, weight, and more. While it may not be as exhilarating as watching monsters battle with their strongest moves, the PokeStop Showcases have successfully carved out their own place within the community. This guide provides comprehensive details on all the upcoming PokeStop Showcases competitions for October 2023.
