'''Official events''' are temporary, recurrent [[staff]]-controlled content and competitions in [[Pokémon Revolution Online]].

Events include competitive venues, such as [[PvP]] tournaments, and in-game [[:Category:Content|content]], such as specially limited-time spawns and quests. They typically reward exclusive items, Pokémon, and other affordances that are not available through the permanent content.

The staff will announce these events upon imminent release on various venues, including system-message broadcasts in-game, the [[Discord chat|official Discord]]'s #announcements channel, [https://twitter.com/PkmnRevolution PRO'S Twitter handle], and the [https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/index.php forums].
==Competitions==
===Fishing contests===
{{Main|Corsica Island}}

Fishing Contests are auto-hosted every week on [[Corsica Island]], lasting for sixty minutes every Saturday starting at 8:00 AM in [https://greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/gmt-plus-0/ GMT+0 time].

During these contests, players capture Pokémon from Corsica Island's spawnset via [[Surf|surfing]] or [[fishing]] and submit them to the judge to earn points, which are determined by their haul's rarities and [[Individual values|IV]] totals. Only those who accrue enough points to rank in the top-twenty-five contestants are eligible for rewards.

===Ladder tournaments===
===Summer tours===
==Seasonal events==
PRO successively hosts events for each seasonal occasion, namely for all multinationally celebrated holidays and summertime. 

The content varies for each iteration of these events, but the fillips are mostly the same: an overarching questline, event-temporary areas (both new and reintroduced), specially themed [[Pokémon Counterparts|Pokémon counterparts]], and new [[Clothing|cosmetics]].
===Valentine's Day===
===Cinco De Mayo===
On the week of Cinco De Mayo, holiday-based paraphernalia becomes available. In addition to May the 4th forms—dubbed for the "May the 4th Be With You" slogan—[[Coin Shop]] cosmetics become temporarily available in tribute to the occasion.
===Easter===
===Summer===
[[Vulcan Island]] is accessible during the summer, typically from June to August.
===Halloween===

===Christmas===

==Microcontent==
Microcontent refers to mini-events that are readily available for anyone to partake in. They are ephemeral in their affordance, often ending in a matter of hours.
===Outbreaks===
{{Main|Outbreaks}}
Outbreaks are randomly hosted limited-time opportunities to encounter a [[Rarity Tier|rare Pokémon]] in a designated location. They are announced on short notice, and the content often varies between each server.

They normally last for only four hours, but major outbreaks can be extended for up to an entire day.
===World quests===
{{Main|World quests}}

World quests are server-wide minievents wherein all the servers' players collectively try to reach a quota of [[Individual values|IVs]] by obtaining and submitting an announcedly designated Pokémon. They occur on the first of every month and end either 24 hours after it initiated or when a server has reached its IVs goal—whichever happens sooner.

If the server fails to reach the goal within 24 hours, then all its players will be unrewarded. Individuals on successful servers who contributed at least 0.5% (1/200th) of the total IVs will reap a [[Mysterious Ticket]] for their efforts (2 if they contributed at least 3%).

===Free Safari===
Occasionally, [[Staff]] holds a Free Safari event, wherein the entrance fees to every Safari Zone are entirely waved. They are typically held only a few times per year and normally on a Friday, lasting an entire weekend.<br>
In addition to entering for free, additional spawns are placed inside the zones. Moreover, some of the Pokémon placed can be [[Pokémon Counterparts|event forms]] and some are [[Membership]] exclusives. The specifics are announced alongside the event in the [https://discord.gg/98pMNxq PRO Discord server].
