Where to find Skwovet in Pokemon GO

Unfortunately, Skwovet, along with the rest of the Galarian Pokemon to be added, will not be available to in Pokemon GO until Friday, August 20th when the 3rd Part of Ultra Unlock drops.

• Field Research Tasks: Aside from new Pokemon, additional Field Research will be made available throughtout the event. Along with the new tasks, there will be opportunities to catch Skwovet and other Galarian Pokemon as potential rewards.

Skwovet, alongside various other Galarian Pokemon, are on the way and will be here soon. Friday, August 20th through August 31st, which is when Ultra Unlock releases, Pokemon GO players everywhere will finally be able to catch some of their favorites from the newest games and add them to their Pokemon GO collection.
