Niantic has recently unveiled the exciting Wayfarer Challenge event in Pokémon Go, offering trainers in Chile and India a unique opportunity to influence their local gaming environment while earning exclusive rewards. From March 7th to 9th in Chile, and March 10th to 12th in India, participants can dive into the Niantic Wayfarer platform to review and approve Wayspot nominations, transforming real-world landmarks, sculptures, street art, and more into new PokéStops and Gyms within the game.
Engaging in this event not only allows you to contribute to your community but also propels you toward special milestone rewards. Achieve 5,000 resolved nominations, and every participant will be rewarded with 20 Ultra Balls, a Star Piece, an Incense, and a Poffin. Push the community effort to 10,000 approvals, and the rewards escalate to 25 Ultra Balls, two Star Pieces, two Incense, two Poffins, and a Lucky Egg.
To participate, you must be at least level 37 in Pokémon Go and have an active Niantic Wayfarer account. Newcomers to the platform will need to complete the Wayfarer Orientation before they can start reviewing nominations. Additionally, you must have recently played in Chile or India, or set your Wayfarer Hometown or Bonus Location to one of these countries. To qualify for the event rewards, you'll need to review at least 50 nominations, with at least one milestone being reached.
Alongside the Wayfarer Challenge, the PokéStop Challenge event will also take place from March 9th to 12th, exclusively in Chile and India. During this event, exploring newly added PokéStops will grant you 3x XP for your first visits, 3x Stardust from opening Gifts, and an increased chance to encounter Kecleon. Event Field Research will offer encounters with Eevee, while Timed Research provides opportunities to catch other Pokémon.
