Pokémon Go is hosting an event to celebrate Pokémon of very small or very big sizes from April 4-9. “Sizable Surprises” brings out all sorts of Pokémon that really push the limit on just how colossal or tiny a Pokémon can be.

During the event, you’ll get double XP for nice or better throws plus an increased chance to find XXS and XXL Pokémon. The chance to find shiny Wailmer is also increased.

During this event, Wimpod and it’s evolution, Golisopod, are also making their shiny debut, so keep your eyes out for a special red-trimmed bug.
