Larvitar, where are you?
I thought I would encounter my first wild Larvitar during this event but nope, seems to be as rare as always. Are they even out there? What's the secret? How do I find this little guy?
I don't live in a rock biom and used to pinap all Geodudes prior to the event, that's how rare those are for me. Now Geodudes are around every corner but still no Larvitars, not even on sightings, not once.
I am kinda disappointed of this event because of that.

I saw zero at the start of the event despite a serious hunt. I did not see any the next day either in my water/grass biome. I finally ran into one yesterday afternoon while blindly searching for an Onyx that wasn't showing thanks to the shit tracker and a local stop with a Pidgey. I caught it.
I think they are out there in most if not all biomes right now but exceptionally rare.
I was just visiting Seattle and caught 12 Larvitars (!) and a wild T-Tar over the course of 3 days. Most of the Larvs were at the very beginning of the event but I was pretty surprised given that it's mostly a grass/ice/water urban biome. Now back home in my arid/desert biome and I haven't seen a single one...
Finally caught my first ever Larvitar during the event today. Level 1, average IVs, but at least I can walk it for candies, so I guess I should be happy.
Wasn't on sightings, but did spawn near a stop. It was in a town, no water nearby. Not sure what biome you'd class it as, the spawns are quite varied.
