Pokemon Go: How to get Pokemon Worlds 2024 Snorkeling Pikachu
There are two ways you can grab yourself a snorkeling Pikachu in Pokemon Go. These are through one-star raids or field research task encounters. As per usual, there’s also an incredibly rare Shiny version of this variant, only being handed out to the luckiest of players.
The raids are a better option if you’re looking to grab a snorkeling Pikachu, as you always know what you’ll get by the end of it. Meanwhile, Field Research task encounters could give you other Pokemon like Sawblu, Minefoo, or Mareanie.

One-star raids are also pretty easy to complete, so you won’t need to bring a friend or find another player to give you the assist. You can continually run these raids if you’re looking to grab yourself a Shiny version of the snorkeling Pikachu, provided you have enough raid passes.
Aside from its new appearance, the snorkeling Pikachu isn’t too different from their regular versions. However, you are able to teach this one Surf through a TM, which is apt considering their gear.
You have until August 20th at 8 pm local time to pick up this limited-time Pikachu, so if you haven’t already stepped outside to go hunting, now is definitely the time to do so!
