Pokémon GO Tour: Sinnoh – Los Angeles was disappointing at first, but the community made it worthwhile

The Pokémon GO Tour: Sinnoh event, held in Los Angeles from Feb. 17 to 18, was the first big in-person event of the year, and aimed to kick off another year of excitement for Pokémon GO.

As someone traveling from the UK to Los Angeles specifically for the event, I was excited to take part in something outside of Pokémon GO Fest. After all, Sinnoh is my favorite region in Pokémon, and with Hisuian Pokémon also making their debut, I was geared up for a great time.
