The Apple App Store Twitter account tweeted that Unown will spawn at South by Southwest, one of the biggest film and media event in the US.
South by Southwest, or SXSW, is a annual event that celebrates film, music, and other forms of media which happens around mid-March, in Austin, Texas. This year, it runs from March 9 until March 18, 2018.
Today, both the Apple App Store and Serebii.Net, a Pokemon fan-site known to get early press releases from Niantic, tweeted that Unown will appear throught the event venue.
As of writing, there are no confirmed Unown sightings but we’ll update this article as the story progresses.
UPDATE: Around 3 PM EST, Unown have started spawning. Unown S, W, and X are the letters that are available, spelling SXSW.
Pssst! If you’re anywhere near #SXSW, don’t miss your chance to catch Unown, one of the rarest and sneakiest Pokémon.
