Druddigon is making its Pokemon Go debut during the Dragonspiral Descent event.

Pokemon Go's Season of Heritage continues this week with a new event called Dragonspiral Descent. The event runs until Dec. 12 and is inspired by Dragonspiral Tower, a location from the Pokemon Black and White games for the original Nintendo DS . Not only will there be special in-game bonuses and a new Collection Challenge throughout the event, but you'll also have your first chance to catch the dragon Pokemon Druddigon. Here's everything you need to know.
