Pokémon GO’s Season of Timeless Travels’ Hidden Surprise event guide

Well, this is a surprise… Niantic has rolled out an unannounced Kecleon event in Pokémon GO! It’s short (only three hours long), but Trainers looking for a Kecleon will have an easier time tracking ’em down. As for why today? Some are pointing out that Kecleon’s Pokédex number (352) is to blame. December 18th just happens to be the 352nd day of the year. So does that mean we’ll see Kecleon appear next year? Well, they’re at least here for the Season of Timeless Travels. (For more details about the Season of Timeless Travels, you can check out our overall Season of Timeless Travels guide hub.)

Now, check out what’s happening during the Hidden Surprise event with our guide below:
