Assuming they will probably do 2x candy, I hope they include 2x stardust for the event.

They didn't include events for Mew, Celebi and Ho-oh. So, players will get Azurill and Wynaut as an egg event, whatsoever before Gen 3 become official. Players, good luck on finding Broski!

Whilst it's cool to see Gen III Pokémon coming to GO, the game sadly lost my patronage when they decided to mess about with the servers on the last day of the Legendary Bird event. Myself and a big group of others waited nearly 2 hours cause we wanted to try to get a Lugia, and the fourth try HAD to be it for me, and they went into meltdown mode and we were lucky if we could log into a blank map. And after the poor response from the customer service (Two free raid passes, joy(!)), I haven't touched it since September.

Been sitting on the ropes about if I'll go back and play it again, but after they wrecked my chances for my favorite legendary... yah ^^; I wouldn't have felt bad if we had been able to try and if we failed, but that was something else entirely.

Lugia was available for at least two months. It's valid to blame them for the game not working on the last day of the event, but they gave everyone ample time to try and catch it. What would you have wanted them to do besides give you two free passes?

I dunno, but they could have at least left the event to run one more day like they did with the Equinox to make up for sending the servers into meltdown on the last day of the bird event.

(And yes, I know it was running for a while, and the whole time it was running due to travelling or it just not spawning in my town, I found it four times overall)

They extended Lugia once so I can't blame them for not doing it a second time. It'll be back. There's no way it'll never be available again.

Hmm lavender town remix - are they trying to grab some headlines when players start throwing themselves off peers or cliffs?

Lol I can't resist off for some creepy pasta lavender town stories!

Well I'll keep that in mind and hopefully it'll come to pass. Heck, I didn't play at all during the Equinox event due to being stuck in Ireland in a bit of a deadspot for walking and Pokéstops ^^; (living in the country around 20-30 minutes from a town is a killer in games like these)
