Pokemon GO Timeless Travels is introducing Hisuian Samurott, along with Hisuian Typhlosion and Hisuian Decidueye, into the mix for trainers to catch. This unique regional variant of the Formidable Pocket Monster will make its debut through a Raid Day event set to take in December. The occasion will also see exciting bonuses that entice players to participate.

While Samurott is a Water-type Pokemon, its Hisuian form boasts a dual-type combination of Water and Dark. Trainers will surely want to get their hands on the Pocket Monster when it arrives on December 3, 2023.

The ticket will provide the following bonuses to gamers who purchase it:

Our Hisuian Samurott Raid and Hisuian Samurott solo Raid guides will be up soon. Interested trainers will be able to check them out to prepare for the upcoming event.

In the mainline series, players can't evolve Oshawott/Dewott into Hisuian Samurott unless they are in Hisui. To make this evolution, they have to bring Oshawott to Pokemon Legends Arceus, evolve it, and then bring the creature back to whichever game they took it from.

It remains to be seen how this particular aspect of Hisuian Samurott is incorporated into the mobile title when it debuts. The Pokemon GO December 2023 content roadmap is already up, and trainers can have a look at what lies ahead.
