Pokémon fans attending this month’s great meeting in Los Angeles are encouraged to bring a can of soup along with them.
The initiative is part of the thrust of Pokémon Go Niantic developer to help the relief efforts of forest fires, which also implies a joint donation of $ 1m by the developer and the Pokémon Company group.
Some fans were not sure if Pokémon Go Tour: Unova – Los Angeles would still move on at the city’s Rose Bowl stadium at the end of this month, after the devastating forest fires of January.
But after several weeks of uncertainty, Niantic confirmed at the beginning of February that the event would continue as planned, with optional refunds for those who decided that they no longer wanted to attend.
“For tickets to retention of tickets attending the event in person, Niantic will organize a donation campaign at the Rose Bowl stadium that supports the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank.
