Mareanie and its evolution, Toxapex, both make their debut in Pokémon GO. Mareanie can be found in the wild, in three-star raids, and as a reward for certain research tasks. Once caught, Mareanie can be turned into a Toxapex using 50 Mareanie Candy. It's a steep price, but players will likely have a chance of getting that amount of candy during the event. Shiny forms of these Pokémon will not be available during the event.
