Pokemon GO Thanksgiving event bonuses

Thanksgiving. I have no idea what is the meaning of Thanksgiving other than the fact it's all about turkeys (and I wished to try one). But Pokemon GO is celebrating Thanksgiving, so...

Let's get into the Thanksgiving spirit with the Pokemon you wished to take on Gyms! (or put them in Gyms)

From November 23 to 30 (sorry for the delayed post), you gain double the XP for whatever activities you do. Yes, this means it's time to evolve those Pidgeys, Rattata and Zubats (or whatever that costs relatively few candies to evolve that are easy to get), catch everything you see (if you have plenty of Poke Balls to do so), and invest in those Egg Incubators to start hatching stuff! And another bonus, you get another double XP if you activate the Lucky Egg! Not joking, that's two times two! 4000XP for each Pidgey you evolved! Don't forget to practice curveballing!

Moreover, the amount of Stardust you receive is doubled. Always short on Stardust? No more for this period, so if you catch something you get 200 Stardust, and if you hatch something, expect Stardust levels to increase by an insane amount! That's right, excellent for powering up your Dragonite, Lapras and Snorlax!

Speaking of powering up, there's a new roster of Pokemon buffed up, readying to take on these so-called "OU 'mons". Alakazam finally being Alakazam from the Generation I days, Golem being awesome, the Hitmons warming up, Jolteon joining the ranks of his brothers and Rhydon being that of a pseudo-legendary. Prepare to invest your Stardust on these challengers!

Finally, Ditto is available to find in the wild. The chances are very low, because whatever you catch has that kind of chance to be actually a Ditto. If you have, I repeat, plenty of Poke Balls, go try to find that Ditto!

So happy Thanksgiving on the GO!
