Pokemon Go Evolving Stars Event Features Cosmoem

The cosmic pokemon, Cosmoem, will arrive in Pokemon Go for the first time during the Evolving Stars Event. The event runs from October 5 at 10 AM to October 11 at 8 PM local time.

Cosmoem is a Psychic Legendary Pokemon, and is the evolution of Cosmog. Players can trigger the evolution by spending 25 Cosmog candies, which can be obtained by completing a new Special Research unlocked during the Evolving Stars Event.
