pokestopRumors about a true holiday event have been circulating since the addition of the Gen 2 baby pokémon. Now we have the full details.
1. From December 25 until January 3 (PST), pokestops will award one single-use incubator after your first photodisc spin of the day. There will also be a greater chance of hatching the newer baby pokémon!
2. From December 30 until January 8 (PST), we'll have a greater chance of encountering the starter Pokémon (and their evolutions). In addition, lure modules will last for 60 minutes instead of the regular 30!

Thoughts about any of these items? Any news from your neck of the woods?

- The recently held Lapras event in Japan raised $207 million for the town of Ishinomaki, which was hard hit by the 2011 tsunami. Which is great! But kind of terrifying to see the power this game has. (source)
- The PokeGo community has walked more than 8.7 billion kilometers. Whew! (source)
