Found this on my POGO account. Any ideas what this is?

    Glad to know I’m not alone… I googled it and can’t find anything. WTH is this 👀

    I hope it’s not a bug, I’ve wanted a Rotom ever since Sinnoh released

    Any idea what the 0HY0 at the bottom could be referencing?

    I backed out and went back in and mines gone now…

  6. For anyone wondering it’s Rotom, a ghost-electric type that commonly possesses machines, which changes it’s type. (Possessing a fridge to become ice-electric for example.)

    No clue what else to do, but 479 is it’s pokedex number.

    It just popped up on mine as well, this is what I found out about it:

    “Trainers, a new Ghost in the Machine quest is now live in the game, and it looks like it has everything to do with Rotom.

    The Ghost in the Machine quest has only one step, and one task named “Catch me if you can.” The rewards are 30 Rotom Candy, 479 Stardust, 479 XP, and Rotom.

    Ghost in the Machine

    Catch me if you can: 30 Rotom Candy
    Rewards: 479 Stardust, 479 XP, and Rotom.

    You will also notice a code 0HY0. According to their official announcement, Pokemon Go players must work together and decipher the code to unlock an encounter with Rotom.

    They clearly say “Once Trainers at Rose Bowl Stadium decipher the code, Trainers worldwide can redeem it, too!” which means someone pressed the wrong button again.”

    They must’ve put this one out early by accident, since it’s gone now lmao

  9. I believe that they said they would be releasing codes for the community to find so that players could get rotom encounters during the sinoh tour, maybe the “0HY0” thing in the bottom of the research is the first 4 letters of that code!

    I don’t have it yet. Do you think I will soon?

    0HY0 might be reference to “Ohayou gozaimasu” (Good Morning in Japanese).

    I dunno.

    If you google 0hy0 there seems to be a motor that’s named as2023-0hy0 since rotom is motor backwards maybe it’s related?

    >Catch me if you can! (¬‿¬)

    Guess I couldn’t.

  14. Least-Ingenuity9631

    Hmm I don’t have this research. What’s the criteria to get it?

  15. DuhForestTyme216

    It was a bugged release. This is a research we are supposed to get but it was released earlier on accident. Niantic removed it but will add it back when the event goes live.

    could be a shift cipher. using 0-9 and A-Z might yield something.

    CTAC is the first thing I found that could be something. shifted 24 for the year, is there a raid on at SeaTac?

  17. Relative-Newspaper-6

    Guess us Australians arent gonna be getting it anytime soon then 😪

  18. Paulkdragon

    I think this is Rotom. Think about it…

    “Ghost in a machine?”

  19. Grandmaster_Forks

    This was probably an accidental launch for a Go Fest Sinnoh special research to release Rotom for the first time.

    I do not have this quest line did they remove it or is my game just glitched

    my friend is going to LA for the Go event. i sent him a screenshot of this from my game and asked if he knew what was up. he said that on saturday a code is going to show up in the park for them to enter and that it’ll probably be unlocked globally after that that’ll unlock Rotom. or something like that idk
