The farthest time zone has just been removed from the game's region system. Parts of the Valentine's Day event is no longer active there nor is it counted in any geographical region as all regional Furfrou forms have been disabled in that time zone.
According to Twitter comments this applies to Kiribati
Edit: This has now been fixed
Where's the farthest time zone?
Either +14, so the most eastern part of Kiribati, or -11 which would be American Samoa.
Oh wow
I’ve been wondering this myself. The one on Pluto?
Somewhere on Planet X, likely.
It's the one with Evil Troy and Evil Abed.
Lol , no one play pokemon go in kiribati anyway
I do believe there was this one person floating around various Pokémon GO related subreddits asking them to view nominations of Pokéstops in Kiribati, and she was also talking about a small Pogo community there. I could be wrong tho.
So fun fact: since wayfarer, Kiribat went from a single stop on the entire island (it was known as one of the most isolated stops found in the game for the first couple years) to having like 4-5 gyms and a solid chunk of stops in the one touristy area.
Thought that was really cool. There’s likely a small handful of players there, and it must have been cool to watch the game map begin to grow in their area and finally become playable.

Not physically there, anyway.
In response to r/kersedlife
Kiribati IS the farthest timezone
Google "farthest timezone" -
"It is also referred to as the "latest time zone" on Earth, as clocks in it always show the 'latest' ... time of all time zones. UTC+14:00 stretches as far as 30° east of the 180° longitude line and creates a large fold in the International Date Line around the Pacific nation of Kiribati."
Also, I've been to Samoa years ago, it's not the farthest timezone as I know first hand.. and PoGo was limited but there were people there.

Is furfrou going to be catchable in the wild now or is it just raidable? I've been sitting on the catch a furfrou part of Misunderstood Mischief.
Edit: I found the answer. I guess I never saw one in the wild the last time it was available.
The first task is to take a photo of your buddy and you get a furfrou encounter as a reward…
Wow...I never claimed the reward for that because I usually do all 3 and then claim them. I'm a dumbass lol. Thanks.
Am I missing a task?
I only have the catch challenges, I don't see any research or tasks that say to take a snapshot of my buddy
This was a really old task from when furfrou was introduced into the game so you may have missed it or completed it.
Ohhh you're talking about last year. I have all the old forms, I just thought I was missing a research line from this year.
I believe it is available in the wild during this event
It's in the wild including incense. Caught a few earlier, no raids.
It’s in the wild, caught a good handful today in NZ

well that's not very nice
You're right. I was trying to communicate something else entirely, but the way I wrote it just comes across as happy these trainers are experiencing a significant bug. That's my bad and I apologize for that. I've removed the comment in consistency with the subreddit rules, but I'll leave our responses here for posterity. Thanks for saying something.
RIP the two players in that time zone.
You mean one player with 2 accounts?
