HELSINKI NOMINATED FOR POKEMON GO SAFARI ZONE EVENT

Helsinki has been nominated as a location for the Safari Zone event of the smash hit AR-based mobile game Pokemon Go by Niantic. Pokemon Go Helsinki published their nomination video on Tuesday the 24th of September.

The proposed location is the Töölö Bay area with its surrounding parks right in the heart of Helsinki with direct access to the Helsinki railway station and multiple attractions that host in-game locations known as pokestops and gyms.

Pokemon Go Helsinki ask for as many likes on their nomination video they can get in order to get Niantic's attention and be chosen to host the event in Helsinki in the summer of 2020. Hastag #NianticLive2020 is where the video was originally published on Twitter.

Similar events have been previously held in places such as Japan, Taiwan, Germany and Denmark, in around 3-4 locations around the world every year since the game's launch in 2016. The events have brought in players in tens of thousands from around the world and typically include special event-exclusive content such as boosted rates of shiny pokemon, rare pokemon, regional pokemon not typically found in the area and different forms of the always elusive Unown.

Pokemon Go is a highly popular and thriving mobile game in Finland, and globally with over 60 million active players. The summer and fall of 2019 has reportedly been the game's most profitable time period since their skyrocketing launch in the summer of 2016, mostly thanks to the introduction of new gameplay features such as player vs. player matches, pokestop submissions, and events such as the Safari Zone that have engaged players with new content consistently throughout the summer, and eventually built up the hype for the introduction to the Fifth Generation of new Pokemon earlier in September.

Helsinki City and the local players are pumped for the potential opportunity of hosting the event, and welcome you with their top notch cellural coverage, unlimited data of Finnish telephone carriers (upon purchase), excellent and accessible public transport, pleasant temperatures, practically nightless nights, safe and clean environment and a thick coverage of attractions and pokestops!
