Pokemon Go Travel Summary : 89K attendees , 3.36 Billion Pokemon, $16 million Revenue generated

Trainers,

So Niantic’s Global Event has finally concluded with a catch of a whopping 3.36 B Pokemon and a wonderful video summing up the Pokémon GO Travel event in under two minutes was released by Niantic. In addition, media outlets were given a scoop of the numbers behind the event:

  • 3.36 Billion Pokémon caught
  • 89000 attendees in Japan
  • $16 million in travel and tourism revenue for Tottori Prefecture

For the entire Scoop :

Over the last week, Pokemon GO Travel Global Catch Challenge saw a number of Trainers from 140 countries collectively catch 3.36 billion Pokemon in the period of 7 days.

The global event wrapped up with a three-day Safari Zone event in Japan’s Tottori Sand Dunes which more than doubled the previous records for visitors to the area.

Over an estimated of 89,000 people came to the Tottori region to catch 12 million Pokemon (including the rare Pokemon, Unown). The regional government of the Tottori Prefecture has said that the three-day event brought in an estimated $16 million (18 billion Yen) in travel and tourism revenue for the region.

After this humongous milestone of catching 3 billion Pokemon was reached, Farfetch’d began appearing worldwide, Kangaskhan was spotted in East Asia, and Ho-Oh started appearing in Raid Battles for the very first time. Now it’s your turn to get in on the action.

Here’s the official video posted by Niantic showcasing Youtube Community stars as they travel throughout Japan and play alongside thousands of visitors at the Safari Event.
