The Completely Normal event in Pokemon GO will kick off on Tuesday, September 23, at 10 am local time and will end on September 27 at 8 pm local time. The big deal about this event is that not only will Dudunsparce make its debut in the mobile game, but trainers can encounter way more Normal-type Pokemon than usual. Some of the Pokemon that will have increased spawns include Dunsparce (of course), Buneary, Teddiursa, and Pidgey.

If you would like to know more information about the 'Completely Normal' event in Pokemon GO, like its research tasks, collection challenges, and overall rewards, look no further.

The event bonuses during the Completely Normal event are double candy for catching, double XP for evolving, and increased chances of finding Ditto and shiny Dunsparce.
