  The diversity of El Ni\~no events is commonly described by two distinct
flavors, the Eastern Pacific (EP) and Central Pacific (CP) types. While the
remote impacts, i.e. teleconnections, of EP and CP events have been studied for
different regions individually, a global picture of their teleconnection
patterns is still lacking. Here, we use Forman-Ricci curvature applied on
climate networks constructed from 2-meter air temperature data to distinguish
regional links from teleconnections. Our results confirm that teleconnection
patterns are strongly influenced by the El Ni\~no type. EP events have
primarily tropical teleconnections whereas CP events involve
tropical-extratropical connections, particularly in the Pacific. Moreover, the
central Pacific region does not have many teleconnections, even during CP
events. It is mainly the eastern Pacific that mediates the remote influences
for both El Ni\~no types.
